Yes. Solidly so.

Repair Quality

I picked Darby’s based on the large number reviews that were overwhelmingly positive. I was not disappointed. Every step of the way was easy, from getting the repair quote to their feeling with the insurance company. I would use Darby again and highly recommend them.

My Experience

My car wasn't returned to the condition it was before my accident - I got it back even better! Jorge got it done promptly, communicated well about progress along the way and is a generous kind guy on top of it all! I'll be writing a great Yelp review shortly!

My Experience

What a lovely experience I had at Darby’s with getting my car repair done. Albert was just outstanding. He provided me frequent updates on my car repairs, patiently answered all my questions and made the whole process so painless. Thank you! I will recommend Darby’s to everyone!

I have been to other chain auto body repair shops and have had to deal with disinterested employees who don’t provide updates and aren’t even easy to reach. And where your car invariably takes much longer to get work completed. I loved how Darby’s is the complete opposite. I was greeted with a smile from the beginning and treated with respect and absolutely professional service the entire time from start to finish. No games and all promises fulfilled. Albert was absolutely outstanding. I will refer Darby’s to everyone I know.

I had such a wonderful and positive experience at Darby’s with getting work done on my Lexus. And Albert was just excellent.

Albert was thorough in providing regular updates by personal phone calls while my car was at the shop. This gave me so much peace of mind.

Albert and his team at Darby's did a great job on a quick and seamless repair for my rear bumper after someone took it off in a parking garage. They were excellent with communicating job status and timelines and in dealing with insurance, sourcing proper parts, etc., making everything very painless. I would definitely recommend their services.

Customer Service

Albert was in contact every couple of days to update me, and I could also see the progress of the work on Carwise. Zero complaints, it was much appreciated.
