I bring my fleet of trucks to Dennis and anything i need fixed he has done faster and better then any other bodyshop, Stay local! He also restores classic cars better then anyone in south county! read more

I got estimates at 3 different body shops and Dennis's estimate was by far the most reasonable. I was paying out of pocket and not using insurance so that was a lifesaver. The other 2 estimates were $1500 and $1900. His was $750 and that was with special 3 step paint for the bumper. 3 days and it was done! They even went above and beyond by removing red paint from a scuff that was on the car from years ago. For FREE! Thank you so much Dennis for the great deal and excellent service! read more

My Geico insurance adjuster steered me into getting my car repaired in Monterey at a well-known body shop, it even had a water fountain in the lobby. After 3 Tries Way too much orange peel, put the wrong color stripe on my 2019 purple Dodge Challenge,,,these people in Monterey said my car would be done in five days,,my car was in Monterey over a month,, and came out worse then when it went into the Body shop in Monterey... I finally had enough and I took my car to Dennis's body shop. The work that Dennis and his son did is incredible, if you have a car wreck anywhere in the Monterey Bay Area,, ((( Dennis is the right shop ...))))U have my word, he is the best,, top of the line work,, my Geico insurance adjuster tried to tell me the shop in Monterey did better work than Denises. My Geico adjuster Was 100% wrong and still has egg on his face from talking out of his you know what. Even the owner of the body shop in Monterey could not defend his body shop work, after they had my car for a month they had my car so long my insurance rental lease ended... Over a scrape on the back quarter panel. read more

See all

Would give no stars if possible , some of the worst service in town been waiting for weeks for my paint correction and they had originally told me it would be a ready on a specific day and a day before that day they called saying they had a problem and i had to wait a couple days . At first didn't have problem but it's become an issue because they've done this 5 times now and I've been waititn weeks over the expected date they gave me. Do not recommend what so ever some of the worst customer service , everytime i call they are rude beyond explaining something I've never experienced at a business before . Worst service needs to be shut down read more

Had Dennis sandblast my exhaust header he did a great job couldn't ask for better results fair price and great service would not go any where else read more

I'm a mild-mannered guy. I like cars and deal with all levels of quality. I don't mind paying for services, however the job at least has to be complete. I took my car to 'Dennis Autobody' and had Dennis media blast my frame and wheel wells. The outside had already been done. He did the work and called me at 7:15 in the morning to tell me it was done- passive aggressive? When I got there, he wanted me to pay before I looked at his work, which is unusual. Most of the job was complete except for 4-5 areas totaling about the size of a large pizza- not a big deal I thought. When I asked Dennis if he could touch up those areas he told me he would give me the paint and I could do it. I told him that I would rather him do it as that's what I was doing there in the first place. He wigged out and became verbally abusive ("you b@#ch like a little girl", "you're a special guy, I have to treat you special"). Is it common sense to attack your customers? Wouldn't it have been easier to just complete the work? I almost laughed at him, it was so ridiculous. He finally agreed to complete the work, then when I returned, there were still 2 areas he missed. When I asked him about it he said, ' Well you're going to sand the primer anyways so why does it matter?' Wow genius. I paid him because I just wanted to get my car away from this guy. I can touch up those areas with a rattle can, but when I took a closer look some of my panels were now warped. It's those warped panels that are going to take some time to fix. I would have saved more money if I just threw away the money I gave Dennis and went to another shop. Poor quality work, unstable customer service and wig-outs. read more

same horrible service here. Big mistake paying this guy before the work was done to my liking. On a restoration said he would do stuff but never did. He actually screwed up more stuff then he did. Don't waste your time and money with this shop. read more

Small town charm. Excellent quality. Can't complain. I can be a gigantic pain in the ass. I get that. That's who I am, I'm fine with it. I usually expect the worst, and hope for the best. I can usually complain about anything... EXCEPT the work I had done by Dennis's body shop in Hollister, CA. Everything came out great. I'm in the process of restoring a 1955 teardrop trailer. The problem is that I decided to start with a gigantic pile of crap. It's over 55 years old. It's caked with rust and years of road grime. I've seen piles of crap that are less crappy than the crap I started with. I needed someone to sandblast 57 years of junk off this thing and to put a respectable paint job on it. Long story short - I called around decided to go with Dennis's shop. Upon arrival Dennis gave me an accurate and detailed estimate. He quoted that the work would be done in one week. Dennis spent time helping me pick out the correct color red for the frame and fenders. He even made a few suggestions on how to improve the quality of my restoration. A week later I was back to get my frame, fenders and what not. I arranged to meet up after standard business hours to pick up my parts. My parts came out great. I looked everything over and I was really pleased. Dennis's work was on time and excellent. There were no 'unexpected surprises' or overages. I'm not usually one to try and refute other reviews. It's not polite and it's all hearsay in the end. However, There was one thing in a prior review that didn't make sense to me. Dennis wouldn't take any money until the job was completed. He wouldn't take money for materials. No money up front. Anyway - my experience was great. I will be using Dennis to complete the final paint job on the trailer. read more

I had a great experience when I needed my bumper repainted at Dennis's Body Shop. They gave me an accurate quote and had the work done within a few days. I did not have any issue with dust in the paint and matches the original paint perfectly. Highly recommend and will use again for any other car need. read more

Hit a pig out by my ranch near pinnacles in my Prius! pretty much wiped out the front end. Called my favorite insurance person in Hollister (helly Henri!) and got set up with Dennis. The car was driveable, got out there, he spent a few minutes looking it over... In a few days, I got the Prius back good as new! He went above and beyond and was very easy to deal with. As I begin restoring an old truck, I know who I will be going to for sandblasting and some finishing touches. Great guy, great business...Thanks for being around! read more

horrible! I can not begin to tell how bad and unprofessional of a job these guys do!! I do not feel like typing a novel so here is my story in a nut shell. I had a car that was in for a new paint job through my insurance company. My insurance company paid them $3300 to do the job. They took a month to finish it. I went to pick up my car. Dennis.s Auto Body is in the country. Wind was blowing dirt and dust onto my car as a guy was buffing it out. ( I am no body shop expert but I don't think dirt and dust is good for polishing a car. ) My car paint had swirl marks in it. I took it back to get re-buffed, but the damage was done. Here comes the good part! My paint started to de-lamainate (come off) after two years. It started on the roof. I took it in to be repaired and they fixed just the roof. Then it started to spread to other pannels of the car. I took it back. They would only repair the pannels that showed de-lamination. I took it back five times until they did the whole car. ( kind of). Now it is de-laminating on the only part they Jewed out on. The spoiler. I did not mention many initial paint flaws, like drips, runs, and general unprofessionalsim. There was even an ant sprayed into the paint! My car was in that place a total of about ten times. I eventually gave up, and my car still sits with a messed up spoiler. If you are thinking of taking your car to Dennis's Body Shop. DON"T. Save yourself head aches, time, and a poor paint job! read more

They fixed up the car very quickly and did a wonderful job. The customer service was also extremely good. The car looks as good as new now. read more
