Charlie’s is the ABSOLUTE BEST! I will not go anywhere else. They restored my SUV after I hit a deer (ugh), and worked tirelessly with my insurance company so it didn’t get totaled. Everyone there-especially Michelle- is the best. They kept me informed and restored my vehicle better than before the deer strike. They even accepted my rental car and called them for pick up so that was one less thing on my mind. You’ll be as happy as I am if you take your vehicle to Charlie’s for repair. I’m beyond happy with everything!! Thank you, thank you for being the consummate professionals and top in your business.

Got into my first Car accident back in December and I was so nervous to find a good body shop that will take care of my car and do an amazing job and I’m glad to say Charlie’s is such an awesome Auto shop not only was I super satisfied with how kind and understanding the Workers are and the customer service was but they always Updated me with anything going on with my car while they had it in the shop and if the pickup date needed moved a little longer due to parts being shipped but overall It was an amazing Experience with Charlie’s I’m so happy my car is So much better than before and of course after the accident but they made my Car more safe and fixed everything that was wrong with it So I definitely 100% recommend Charlie’s body shop!

I had a headlight on my car that was clouded over pretty well. I stopped in to see if Charlie could do anything to save it. I dropped my car off the following day and he called mid-afternoon to tell me it was finished. When I picked up the car I was amazed that my formerly cloudy headlight was now crystal clear! He did a great job on the headlight and I’d highly recommend this service if you have cloudy headlights.

I’ve had a fender bender every year on work trucks and personal . I’ve been to Charlie’s for 20 plus years not one time have I ever had a problem they are the the most honest ppl anyone can ask for very personal and go the extra mile to see that your 100% .

This is the second time I've had my car to Charlie's for 2 unrelated minor accidents. Beginning with the estimate, insurance, drop off, body and paint work, and pickup; i just don't think it would be possibe for it to be any easier/less complicated, or the work any higher quality! As always i am beyond pleased and satisfied! The entire team deserves accolades! Thank you!

I'm an old school person and this is the only body shop you'll get the service and quality that is lacking in the industry elsewhere. You'll get the job done right and on time. Clear and concise communication. No BS.
