Nick at Earl Scheib Van Nuys charged me $6k in May of 2023, promised to have my car's body and paint work done by October 31st, 2023, and lied. Nick claimed to have changed the email repeatedly and been unable to see requests for photos of progress and receipts for purchased parts or materials demonstrating that work was in progress. I had a tow truck pick up the car (at my expense) in the same condition in December 2023 and a part I had provided was not returned by the shop despite my texting to prepare the car for pick up with the part in the car. Nick further promised to refund the total deposit immediately Dec 13, 2023 and said he would text the receipt. That never happened. It is now Jan 22, 2024 and my credit card company has reported no attempted refund for the charge, I still do not have the original chrome headlight ring I provided for the repair returned, and I have had to send a certified letter to perform (no response to that yet) and now have filed a small claims lawsuit. This is still unresolved. read more

Earl Scheib Collision - Before - Body Shops Near Me - Van Nuys, California

I own classic muscle car that I had restored years ago that was in need of some TLC. It had a bent frame and needed some body work to the front end done. I was shopping around for over 6 months looking for an auto body place that wasn't afraid to do frame straightening AND that knew what they were doing. Based on the reviews on Google I decided to go with at Earl Scheib Collision. Upon my first visit I wasn't treated as a customer but as family, they spent a lot of time with me understanding what I needed done and took time to look over the car, in detail. Nick helped make me feel comfortable about fixing my car and they were very thorough with sharing cases that were similar where they were able to fix bent frames in the past. I decided to give them a shot. Not only did they get the frame back to factory they went above and beyond to make sure that the look of my classic muscle car was restored. The amount of detail Earl Scheib put into fixing my classic car means more than anything. I felt like I was back in high school seeing my car come out of the paint shop for the first time. Since then I have referred my friends and family there and will continue to refer anyone who needs body work done. Best Quality, Service & Experience Ever 10 stars read more

Earl Scheib Collision - I just picked up my car, Wow! The job is excellent&ahead of schedule. John, the general manager is very helpful. The rusty spots are gone - Body Shops Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Needed an inexpensive paint job that would last me 3-5 years Great outcome, staff was very helpful.

Great experience! I took a Mercedes 380SL in for a full paint job and they delivered exactly what was discussed. The paint was original and very tired, past being able to preserve it so I stripped the ENTIRE exterior from bumper to bumper including all trim. The color match was perfect, the color sand and cut was done well with minimal overspray. Almost a year later its still presenting well. read more

Brought in my 08 benz s class. Promised 2 weeks. It took 5 freaking weeks! Then there were problems after....excess hard tape, overspray, swirl marks. Took it back to fix and late again! And now the hood is full of swirl marks and embedded dust! The garage is so dusty it messed up my paint job! Now i have to fix it myself with a clay bar to smooth out the hood and swirl remover. I paid almost 4 grand for a crappy job that was late. This place is the worst. Maybe they were good years ago. Now theyre trash because these days theyre run by incompetents. Avoid this place like the plague. read more

DO NOT GET YOUR CAR PAINTED HERE! I cannot put together in a single review how bad my experience was here, and I would do ANYTHING to undo it all and get my money back and never have stepped foot in there in the first place. 1. John is extremely condescending and rude. Spoke to me like I was an idiot, upsold me, didnt deliver, then refused to let me speak to the owner "Elizabeth" that I read about in other reviews. 2. They took my car back to "fix" and "repaint" what was wrong under their "warranty". Except they half assed wet sanded some of the problems out and buffed it. Not fixing ANY of the problems and told me that was "as good as its going to get" and I should not care because "its just a truck". The only thing they resprayed was my Camper shell that they didnt even cover in paint the first time and was still red when I got it back.. Except now it doesnt match the color of the truck. 3. I asked to get the dents out, John paid little attention to what I pointed out, Charged me more money for body work, poorly filled a couple of the dents that you can still see sand marks in, and didnt fix any of the others I pointed out. Told me it would be hundreds of dollars more to fix when I brought it back in. Because they had to repaint it, which I asked for in the first place. Im unhappy with it enough to where I am going to sell my truck, because I cant afford to repaint it elsewhere and I hate seeing how poorly it was done. I spent almost enough money to have a reputable shop paint my truck, and I wish more than anything I took my business somewhere else. Please take your vehicle to another shop, so you dont feel as robbed and taken advantage of as I do. read more

Scratched my car real bad, and following the recommendation of Yelp reviewers, I took my car to John. He gave me a fair quote and told me what day it would be done. He did a fantastic job. Can't tell where the the damage was. In addition, I need some fading and clear coat repair. Looks great!!! Someday when I get the whole car redone, I'll be going his shop. read more

On a personal level, the guy that's runs the place is a very cool person. On a professional level, the work that was done for the price charge was unbeatable. I came in with a silver Hyundai that needed damage on the door repaired and they did it in a both quick and affordable manner. This place is top notch. read more

I just want to say that this shop is wonderful. The staff is very knowledgable and helpful. I have been going to the shop for a couple years now. I had a break job the really needed to be done asap and the guys took care of me with excellent service. They do everything at this shop. They even do car wrapping. I'm gonna get my car wrapped too. read more

They fixed the seven door dings the previous owner got from parking next to animals, now I cannot even see where they used to be!!! Just got my Mustang convertible painted black along with fixing above-mentioned door dings, looks amazing.!!! Got a 3 year guarantee on paint fading/ peeling, we will see. Customer service, pricing ($1,200) , and timeliness were all great. read more

I never leave reviews but just had to for this place! Highly recommend Earl Scheib Collision for any paint, body, or collision work needed. John the manager took care of my Lexus IS the same day I needed a paint touch up. Communication and turnaround was very fast and efficient. Everyone at the shop were welcoming... they care about customer satisfaction and quality work above anything else. They exceeded my expectations and I'm completely satisfied! I will definitely return in the future! read more

John and his workers did a great job taking care of my Infiniti G35. I chose the base coat & clear coat package to refinish my OEM paint in addition to installing my aftermarket bumper(side note: they did not include the bumper with their warranty because it is a low bumper in addition to my car being "slammed".) The end result was fantastic! The balance between cost and quality here is very reasonable. 3 year warranty too. I have already recommended this place to friends and family and I will come back for my bodywork and paint needs in the future. Thanks again read more

I have just come from this shop where I was hoping to get an estimate for a small dent in my car. Instead what I got was an incredibly condescending and disrespectful bunch of smart alec and unprofessional remarks from an elderly, overwieght middle eastern man. He said my car will look like a hooker if I only paint over the dent then proceeded to tell me that if I didnt want to pay 1200 dollars to get my entire car painted I could go to the church and pray that God fixes it. He then explained to me that the process of painting my car would be "we spray it, let it dry". When I asked how many coats of paint would be applied he said "I dont know what you talking about, we do one coat, we are not painting a house"...there was a sign that said PAINT YOUR CAR $399, I pointed this out and said well what about that, youre telling me you do 800 dollars worth of body work? he said indeed they did. I can only conclude that this place is unprofessional, incompetent and generally just not concerned as to whether or not they do a good job or even promise to do so. I will tell everyone I know not to come here and that includes you. I will also be lodging a formal complaint with the better business bureau of southern California. I feel extremely upset and frankly just angry that I was treated with such unwarranted hostility. I think that this place is a front for some other type of business perhaps. read more

People love to bash places like Earl Scheib, but all I can say is, none of them have ever had a paint job done by them. This store has done a few cars for me over the years, and every time they did a great job. On the rare occasion where there was an issue, they fixed it immediately, no hassles. I'd recommend them and will use them again.. read more

Extremely happy with the repair and paint job of my Corvette removable hard top. Perfect color match and smashed edge restoration. Very fast turn around and Nick was very friendly and professional. read more

I can honestly say that my experience with Earl Scheib of Van Nuys was great. John, the manager, was extremely professional and pleasant to deal with. I took my mom's 2004 Suzuki XL-7 to Earl Scheib to have the car repainted the factory color. John explained the process to me, and told me what to expect. A few days later I picked up the car, and WOW, the car looks better than the day we purchased it from the dealership. Now two months later and after several washes, the car still looks amazing. I will be back in the future to have paint work done on my other car. Great job! read more

This auto paint shop is the very best in VAN NUYS. They know how to satisfy the client from the time you bring your car until the car had been fix. Very affordable rates! I didnt notice the car after they finished painted it like a brand new car ready for a auto show. John is the MAN honest and a very patient guy.

Earl Scheib Collision - After. Thanks EARL SCHEIB - Body Shops Near Me - Van Nuys, California

I've got a 10 year old Earl Scheib paint job on my 1995 Lincoln Towncar and the paint job still looks great! But I wanted to look into the current situation with inexpensive paint jobs of about $600 so I checked out Maaco by visiting them. Maaco had low prices ON THE WALL but they tried to up the price to about $1400! I was not pleased. So I found a location of Earl Scheib in Van Nuys and called them on the phone. The price was also about $600. The manager said I could get that price unless my car needed body work, and he DIDN'T HASSLE ME by trying to RAISE THE PRICE above what I know to be reasonable...about $600 for their most often chosen price upon which they have based their good reputation for many years. Then I checked the yelp.com reviews. Most if not all Maaco locations had many many ONE STAR REVIEWS ON YELP....WHILE SCHEIB HAD MOSTLY 5 STAR REVIEWS THAT APPARENTLY THEY EARNED BY HONEST DEALINGS AND GOOD WORK. So guess to which company I'm choosing to take my Lincoln TC to be repainted??? :o) SCHEIB OF COURSE!!! I'll let you know how they did after I get the TC painted. read more

I took both my cars to this location and absolutely loved the customer service and attention to details Nick and his staff provided he not only Made sure every detail was taking care of but he communicated with me the entire time providing with the best service while my car was being repaired he also made the drop off and pick up easy for me the service treatment and professionalism is extraordinary here Mick made sure all details on my vehicle was covered if you car needs any repairs this is definitely the right location thanks again to Nick and his team for making my car issues much easier during times like these !!! We need more companies and staff like this read more

Earl Scheib Collision - 2004 Toyota Celica - Body Shops Near Me - Van Nuys, California

Took a while to get my truck fixed but they did a great job. Nick is a good and honest dude. I'd definitely do business here again!

Didn't need the whole car painted, just the roof. John, the Manager, talked with me and gave me a quote for the entire car and just the roof. He agreed that only the roof needed painted and did not try to up-sell me. Felt real comfortable with the honesty. Gave them the car, and 2 days later got the beautifully done car back, along with 1 other job that I had them do for me after I had already given them the car. Pricing was great and their price was better than the other clowns (Name withheld) down the street. Again 5 star for great work guys and honestly done. read more

Updated review: The owner of the paint shop Elizabeth personally contacted my father and I to apologies for the issue and also to apologies for her manager john's negative attitude towards us. She explained that this is not how she conducts her business and promised to resolve our issue at no extra cost. The paint job has now been corrected, issues resolved. I wish this would have been the type of service we obtained the first time. All we wanted was to obtain quality service for what we paid for. If you guys do visit the shop make sure you only speak with the owner Elizabeth who is very kind and knowledgeable. Avoid her manager john. read more

I can not say enough great things about John and his staff! I own two classic Jaguars that unfortunately had to have some body work done. I don't enjoy taking my baby's to the body shop but when the need arises I never think twice on who to trust them with. Since my very first visit to present day each experience has been wonderful. They do terrific work and John has always quoted me an extremely fair and generous price. I can wholeheartedly recommend Earl Scheib of Van Nuys to my friends and family without hesitation! read more
