    Seamless experience! Ask for Joel. If you need your car fixed right, bring it to Avenue Body Shop and look for Joel. From start to finish, he made a stressful situation incredibly easy. Joel is such a nice person and genuinely cares about taking care of everything for you so you don't have to stress. The quality of the repair is flawless, but what blew me away was the extra attention to detail--he made sure everything was absolutely right and even had the car polished up so it looked brand new when I picked it up. On top of that, Joel is incredibly knowledgeable; he will look over the vehicle and honestly recommend what else you might need to look at or fix down the road without any high-pressure sales tactics. Absolute professional. I can't recommend Joel and this shop enough!

    Took my mustang in to repair quarter panel and bumper added spoiler and came back brand new great service and communication overall

    100% recommend for car body work or any proplems after car accident! Yoel and all team of Avenue body shop in San Francisco did a fabulous work on fixing my brand new 2015 Hyundai after I had a hit and run! The job was excellent communication and all service! If I could give 50 stars I would do that!

    I have to give a shout-out to Noe Flores and Joel! These guys genuinely made me feel like we were in this together and not just another claim. That's rare. If you're dealing with an insurance claim right now, know that there are auto body shops that actually cares, come here. My car came back faster than they promised, which was awesome. And spotless too. I've worked with other shops where that wasn't the case, so it stood out. They make the whole car repair thing way less stressful and actually make sure you're taken care of. I will definitely bring my car here for everything it may need apart from a collision, but thankfully, that incident led me to find this auto body shop!

    I chose Avenue to work on a Mini Cooper with peeling clear coat and paint on the rear bumper. I initially walked in without the car and asked what it might cost, and when I brought the car itself in the next day that was the price I was quoted. So I had a good feeling regarding the accuracy of the estimations. I left the car and went on my way. Later in the day I got a call from Joel who asked if I knew about a small dent in the left quarter panel. Yes, I knew but I wasn't going to worry about it. Somehow jewelry and the fact this was my GF's Mini entered the conversation. Joel made me an offer I couldn't refuse and I okayed the extra work. When I stepped into Avenue's garage a week and half later, I suspected the staff had broken the rule about impinging the space-time continuum. The entire rear end looked like the shipping film had just been removed from it after being driven off the transport boat. The bumper gleamed, the dent was history, and they had removed everything including the stinkin' badges from the back and blended the paint so smoothly it would make butter stutter. They also took the extra step of rejuvenating the plastic wheel arch and edge trim around the entire car. If you drive a Mini, you know how that looks tired after ten years' exposure. And yes, they did put the badges back. In all seriousness, the additional cost was money well spent and the extra work was outstanding. The people in the office were efficient and friendly, and Joel and Walter in the shop were straightforward and no -nonsense. Obviously I'd prefer not to have to NEED their services again, but if ever it happens Avenue is where I would go.

    The beautiful job they did on my brand-new looking car! Satisfied to say the least!!!

    I am a second-time customer at Avenue body shop. Once again, they did an incredible job! I highly recommend. Joel, Ana, Eduardo, and the whole team are not only a pleasure to be around, but go out of their way to ensure the entire process is seamless and top-quality. As a woman in her mid 20s, owning a car in San Francisco can be very daunting to navigate. They helped me tremendously, guiding me with my claims process and truly made me feel cared for. I could go on and on about how understanding and transparent they are! Joel thought I was joking when I asked to take a picture with my car, but I was so excited to share how happy I am with my car and to show my appreciation for a truly wonderful auto body shop.

    I have a 2004 Toyota Avalon, body is in good shape and it black paint has been fading. I just need a very basic cost of paint throughout. Just wondering how much you you charge, ball park figure and how long will the job take? Thank you Ed

    Hi Eduardo, thanks for your question. Avalons are great cars! But it doesn't surprise me that after 20 years the paint will be faded. We don't recommend investing into a "whole-car" paint job. To be honest, it will be in the thousands. Even a four…

I dropped my car off on a Thursday morning for a preliminary inspection and was told it would take about 2-3 days to repair a damaged bumper. I was able to bring it back the following Monday morning for repair. The process was super straight forward and they made it very easy to work with AAA. The estimate for the repair was about 1.3k, which felt reasonable considering the inspection and labor they did on the car. I got the car back 1.5 days after dropping it off and am super happy with the results. Understanding that it was just a repaint and not a major repair. My bumper had some other damage unrelated to being hit and they fixed everything and the bumper looks fantastic and brand new. I will definitely be back here for any auto body needs and can't recommend them enough!

Reputation - 650+ yelp reviews gave me confidence (2x closest competitor in SF). They also have i-car gold certification that means they pay for training for their workers Shop equipment - high end paint booths with heating and well organized and well-lit shop. Communication - amazing! Kai emailed me every step of the process to keep me updated. I never had to chase him. Work quality - A+. I cant tell the difference vs original painted panels. Car looks showroom quality. Kai took care of minor imperfections unrelated to the repair on other panels when he checked the car in - that was a nice extra I had a minor issue I noticed on pick up and Kai immediately owned it without haggling or arguing. 100% owned the outcome and delivered impeccable work product. Highly recommend!

    Best experience I've ever had with an auto body shop…read more I brought my Mazda in with a bunch of scratches and dents from years of parking around SF, plus one door that had started making this horrible creaking noise after someone opened their door into mine. Kai met me out front, looked over everything, and was incredibly straightforward. He went through the damage one by one, explained what would actually be involved in fixing each thing, gave me fair estimates, and basically told me it probably wasn't worth spending the money to chase every cosmetic issue unless I really wanted the car pristine. No upselling at all. Then he figured out that the creaking was just the door rubbing against a panel. He spent a few minutes pulling the panel back into place, completely fixed the problem on the spot, and then refused to take the $200 I offered him. I was kind of blown away. He saved me a ton of time, fixed the thing that was bothering me most, didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need, and wouldn't even take payment for helping me. Hella impressed. I'll definitely come back here for any future body work and recommend Kai to friends.

I purchased the Mini factory paint pen thinking I could cover them up by myself but after viewing some online tutorials, I realized that I did not have the proper skills to do this type of correction. I was going to obtain quotes from some local body shops around my area but the sales person at O'Reilly Auto Parts explained to me that body shops would most likely recommend repainting the entire panel which would be very expensive. After scouring many yelp reviews, I stumbled upon Automotive Touch Up Professionals and I am so grateful I did. Serena is a consummate professional. Her response to my request was prompt and the assessment of the final outcome was very transparent and honest. I also thought her pricing was very fair and reasonable. I am extremely pleased with the result! Serena provided me with detailed instructions on how to care for and maintain my Mini's exterior paint coat. She was also nice enough to drop off an emergency spray kit for my car in case of any unexpected stains or bird droppings. I highly recommend Serena and will be contacting her again should I need any more touch ups in the future!

He has a great eye for detail and was always upfront and transparent about the work that needed to be done. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing things the right way. Another thing I really appreciated was that I never felt rushed. They took the time to answer my questions, and anytime I sent a text, I got a quick response back. I can see this business being successful for a long time, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for quality work and honest people.
