My Experience

It’s unfortunate that I have keep writing these comments about how satisfied I am with Premier. I say unfortunate because that means another one of my vehicles is in need of restoration. I continue to come to Premier because Ronnie runs a very tight, disciplined, friendly and professional company. I have never not been completely satisfied with the quality of work done to my vehicles. I will not take my vehicles to any other body shop.. Thank You Ronnie and the entire Premier staff.. God’s Continued Blessings

Ronnie the owner of Premier Collision has by far the best body shop I’ve ever dealt with. I’ve unfortunately had to bring a couple of my vehicles to him recently. I say unfortunately simply because if I’m bringing them to him that means my vehicle has been in another accident. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my vehicles. Premier does exceptionally great work. You can’t go wrong bringing your vehicles here.

I highly recommend visiting Premier Collision Center. Their exceptional customer service is truly commendable. Recently, I brought my vehicle in for service, and the time they spent on it was incredibly efficient. They kept me informed about every step of the process. Once they completed the service, they promptly washed my vehicle, which is a service that not many shops offer. Their meticulous attention to detail and professionalism resulted in my truck appearing brand new. I am deeply grateful for your exceptional work on my vehicle. I was thoroughly impressed. Thank you !!!

THEY ARE SO COURTEOUS AND WANT TO DO A GOOD JOB

My Experience

The repair itself was satisfactory, minus however I noticed when they washed my truck, it’s like they washed it outside in the heat, plus didn’t wash off the dust particles. Left hard water spots. There’s obvious swirls in the paint from whatever brush or rags they used while washing it. I mentioned this to Garry the service adviser. I understand he isn’t responsible for this. I informed him that I get this truck detailed monthly and had a paint enhancement done to remove any imperfections from the truck when I purchased it brand new. I didn’t expect it to get washed after the repair, while appreciated, unfortunately it’s evident of the imperfects left in my truck.

The customer service is top notch! 100% would recommend. The repair timeframe was done just as stated from my estimate.

Repair looked amazing! They did a great job!!!

Customer Service

After my previous survey, I was contacted by Ronnie, the shop manager. Honestly, I was surprised my concerns were even addressed. I really wasn’t expecting that, and it meant a lot. He called and asked me to bring my truck back in so he could personally assess the detail work I’d mentioned. We set a time, I brought it in, and we walked around the truck together going through everything. To be clear, neither Ronnie nor the shop was obligated to do anything at that point. I would have completely understood if nothing came of it. This was actually my first time ever having a vehicle repaired, so I didn’t really know what to expect going in. But when I came back to pick up my truck later that same day, it exceeded anything I could have hoped for, he’d vacuumed the interior, shined the tires, and even put a fresh coat of wax on it. When I talked to Ronnie afterward, I told him straight up that I chose this shop because of how Garry, the estimator, represented it from the start, and now Ronnie was reinforcing that same standard. Garry set the tone early with his transparency, walking me through the process and communicating with me every step of the way. Then, after I raised a concern on a survey that I honestly assumed would just disappear into a file somewhere, I got a call from Ronnie within a day, ready to make it right. I know most people aren’t getting their vehicle repaired on a regular basis. But having worked in customer service myself, and now running my own business, I recognize what it means when staff like Garry and Ronnie treat a one-time repair customer like a repeat client. It tells me they’re not just trying to close out a job and move on, they actually care about the experience. If I’m ever in a position where my vehicle needs repair again, I’m telling my insurance company it has to be Premier. Outstanding customer service, and genuinely great people.

Two things, first office paperwork showing deductible, when it was waved and second why we were not informed about repairs not included (lower rocker panel)

Customer Service

Garry was mostly ok (not notified about extra repair not completed) Office would give a 4

To be honest, I had some reservations at first as it was a shop referred to me by the insurance company. However, Gary and the staff were amazing throughout the process. My car was completed as stated and looks amazing! I would give them a 10, and will refer anthem to anyone who needs any work done on their vehicle
