Overall Customer Satisfaction
Customers consistently praised the shop for outstanding service quality, with many noting repairs that restored vehicles to like-new or better-than-new condition. The interior and exterior detailing provided as a bonus was frequently highlighted as a delightful surprise. Communication was a standout strength, with customers appreciating regular text and phone updates that kept them informed throughout the repair process. Timeliness was another key positive, as many vehicles were completed ahead of schedule. A few customers noted areas for improvement directly from their comments, including more accurate completion timelines, thorough initial repair estimates, and ensuring all components are properly secured upon vehicle return.

Very nice job on the repairs. Color blends well and it's hard ( or impossible) to tell where there was damage.

My Experience

Excellent communication throughout the entire process and they even made it super easy by letting me leave my rental and they’d contact Enterprise to come get it. Stellar work and my car looks amazing like nothing happened at all!!

My car looks brand new after hitting a deer.

Customer Service

These people are so freaking professional. My insurance company referred them and said that they were rated five stars and I see why. Very professional, communication was excellent and they consistently sent me updates via text messages. That entire crew are the best. I’m giving a 10 out of 10.

My Experience

Overall, the work completed on my vehicle appears to be satisfactory, and the vehicle is currently in good working order. Everyone I interacted with was kind, courteous, and professional. However, I was disappointed with the communication and transparency regarding the status and expected completion date of my vehicle. Throughout the process, I was repeatedly told that my vehicle would be ready the following day, which led me to make adjustments to my work schedule and childcare arrangements. Ultimately, the vehicle was not ready for another two weeks. I would have much preferred to receive a more accurate timeframe upfront, even if that meant being told it would take an additional 1–2 weeks. There were also times when the information I received about the vehicle's progress seemed inconsistent. For example, one day I was told that the vehicle was fully assembled and just waiting to be painted, while the following day I was informed that the frame still needed to be welded and the vehicle still needed to be assembled. Because of these conflicting updates, I never had a clear understanding of where my vehicle was in the repair process. I understand that unexpected delays can happen during vehicle repairs, but I believe the experience would have been much less frustrating if the expected timeline and any changes to it had been communicated more accurately and transparently. The quality of the work seems satisfactory, but improving communication about repair status and realistic completion dates would make a significant difference in the overall customer experience.
