We couldn't ask for a better experience during a difficult time. We got an appointment the next morning after our car accident and had many text and call updates during the repair process. Excellent customer service, communication, and our repaired car looks beautiful. The office even stayed open late on Friday evening so that we could pick up our vehicle. Gerber really went above and beyond!

My Experience

Gerber Collision & Glass at this location has done a phenomenal job repairing my vehicle. It is a lengthy review, but one worth reading. First, my car was heavily damaged by a HEAVY thunderstorm that struck most of the Chicago area back in June 2026. A tree fell on it, damaging the hood, roof and pillar. The extreme high winds sent flying debris that nicked and scratched all sorts of areas of the car's body. I filed my claim with my auto insurance. Their estimate on repairs seemed unreasonable due to the damage. The photos I submitted to my insurance company did not capture the depths of the damage. For the wonders AI (Artificial Intelligence) does, it does a poor job in assessing damage and REAL cost of parts and labor. Get an Estimator. Always. Don't trust AI for the cost auto repairs. At this shop, I was able to send my claim number and estimate from my auto insurance via email. Renee welcomed me, and walked me through the process. I'm very thankful for her patience, warmness and execution in terms of paperwork and helping me by contacting Enterprise to schedule a ride to the premises and obtain a rental vehicle. Throughout the week, Renee called me to let me know they were waiting for my insurance company to approve Gerber's estimate. The auto insurance company took a week or so to approve the new estimate from Gerber Collision Repair. It seemed like the insurance companies were backed up with claims during that time due to the sudden surge of vehicles damaged due to the extreme weather-related damage. If you're from Chicagoland you would easily recall this thunderstorm in June. I've to commend Luis (Estimator) for doing a VERY thorough job in calculating the real cost of repairs to my vehicle. The estimate was more reasonable than what my insurance company originally offered. He had an eye for the extent of the damage caused by Mother Nature. Once my auto insurance company approved Gerber's estimate, they got to work. Please always get an actual Estimator (a real life person) to look through your vehicle's damage as their knowledge and experience is more valuable than AI. Thank you Luis for having my vehicle's (and mine) best interest. It did take some time for my vehicle to get repaired. My insurance company could only cover a certain amount of days for the rental vehicle. I appreciated Gerber Collision Repair in covering the cost of the few extra days of the rental vehicle while my car was being finalized. This gesture meant so much to me. When I went to pick up my vehicle, Nick greeted me. He was very warm and made eye contact. He answered my questions about a deductible, walked me through the paperwork, made a couple of phone calls to get answers to my questions. Nick made sure to get Enterprise the rental vehicle back. A very personable and knowledgeable gentleman.He shook my hand at the end. This gesture and service etiquette I thought had been lost. Great job Nick! When I stepped outside to inspect my vehicle, Fredy the Technician who worked on the body and repairs of my vehicle walked me around to inspect it. Beautiful!

My Experience

Well organized, friendly and provided regular updates as to status of repairs. Good work!
