My Experience

I visited Histead’s Auto Body twice this month and had an outstanding experience. Tim and his team were professional with everyone in the waiting room, listened to my need for a quick turnaround before travel, and delivered on time. They also walked me through the work so I understood exactly what was done. I haven’t used many body shops, but if I ever do again, Histead’s will be my choice

On a scale of one to 10 I’m gonna give you guys a 25. I love the service representatives were great. They were awesome. All of my concerns were addressed and I would definitely recommend you guys.

Customer Service

I will give you guys a 25 but it’s not an option. You guys went over and beyond to make sure that I’m satisfied with the work and Elena I want to say that was superb. She needs a raise. Yes, she’s awesome.
