The vehicle still had that new car smell and helped make the 14 hour journey bearable. I can't vouch for the welding or auto body work, but judging from the U-Haul service awards in the office and the kitschy decades old tourist map of Plattsburgh hanging inside that prominently features the business, I can only assume Pellerin maintains a similar standard of service in all its endeavors and has done so for many years!

The gentlemen at Dick's checked it out to make sure I was safe to drive, could still enjoy the rest of vacation, and patched everything up so it looks practically good as new until I could get home to get the bumper replaced.

Honestly the worst service I have ever received. I am a young individual who does not know much…read moreabout cars or the financials behind collisions and insurance. I was told by my insurance, to contact Bill's to get a quote on the damage to my vehicle, that was done by another vehicle. Bills is one of the few shops around the area that deals with this type of damage I've been told, so I wanted to give them business before taking my car across the pond to a big dealership to be serviced. I called and a woman answered. I simply explained how I was unsure of what to do, what the proper steps are, and how to go about making sure my car gets fixed. Instantly the woman has a rude attitude and proceeds to tell me multiple times "she's been in the business for over 25 years and that's not how it works" - I again explain, I'm confused and unsure of how the process goes. She tells me bringing my vehicle in would be a waste of time because insurance needs to "pay her." Instead of helping me understand, taking social and context clues of "hmm this girl seems a little confused" she continues to disrespect, power trip, and belittle me. I understand that many businesses are struggling during this time, and I certainly have never been to Bill's, but wanted to help give back to local businesses before taking my car across the lake for service. It is evident, I will be taking my service else where as I also advised the woman she could take her attitude elsewhere. To the woman who was rude, disgusting, and randomly combative on the phone - I have been in the customer service for years as well ma'am, and I can tell you.. despite my age, I certainly would like to share some knowledge that I've learned along the way. No one cares how long you've been in the business, people care about how you treat them. You could've given me the worst service, but been an absolute gem, which would make me want to go back. Instead, you were a jerk, and made me feel very belittled and helpless. I hope others have had a better experience, but I certainly will not ever be going here.

About 3 months ago I solicitated the work of Slinks Garage to do some paint correction and a 3…read morestage buff on my car to get rid of scratches and such. At this time I also had my damaged bumper replaced and painted by them, and had the entire car ceramic coated. After performing the work I was not entirely happy bc I had some very high expectations and I wasn't very knowledgeable about the process. I also should have asked more questions. They did an amazing job on the bumper and the paint correction and buff but some scratches just didn't come out bc they were too deep. I did complain and even though it wasn't their fault they refunded some money. Fast forward 3 months... I was looking for some recommendations from people on fb on fixing some peeling that had happened by the trim on my bumper. I wasn't blaming Slinks just looking for recommendations. Sam from Slinks saw my post on fb and reached out and told me they would gladly warranty the work and set up a time to bring my vehicle in. I met up with Mike and Sam at their shop and they assured me that whether it was fault of bad primer at factory or paint on their end they would redo it free of charge. I wanted to get my hood done as well bc it was covered in rock chips that couldn't be fixed without painting it. I requested them to also do the hood and black out my chrome trim on my front. Not only did they communicate great, they did awesome work... I mean they blew it out of the damn water. I'm more than happy with the work they did, so much that I have already spoken to them about doing more work. All in all these people do awesome work, and are very fair. I have no complaints and I would trust them to do work on any vehicle I own. I strongly recommend them based upon work ethic, work quality, communication, and integrity. It's so damn hard these days to find good shops and Slinks Garage is top notch!
