The BEST! Brought my damaged car in to Hustead's concord because Lexus Concord (where we bought our car) recommended them. Joel the manager was so nice, looked at the car when the shop was just about to close and gave me an estimate. He actually told that he would not recommend getting our car fixed at his shop and instead to take it to paintless dent repair in Pleasanton. Since our car is new, he said if it were his car, he wouldn't recommend redoing the factory paint. We took it in to paintless dent repair yesterday and the car is almost perfect. Can't thank Joel enough for his honesty and integrity. Go to Hustead's Concord and they will take care of you. read more

I had gotten in a car accident earlier in May and Husteads took care of my car. I needed to get some dents and scratches off of my rear bumper. The whole process took about 4 days. Joel took care of me and walked me through the whole process while giving me updates on the progress of my vehicle. I won't go anywhere else to get work done. Thank you so much Joel and the rest of the team at Husteads! read more

I was very impressed with the customer service demonstrated by Joel. He recognized the issue I was facing was minor and he graciously asked the team to fix it for me. I am blown away by the focus on customer satisfaction and am very appreciative. Thank you! read more

Plain and simple the staff is Professional! Rick clearly explained the process, cost and gave me options.

Went to Husteads Auto Body for some minor dents/paint on my Honda's hood based on the excellent Yelp reviews. Rich was great and honest to work with. Team did a high quality job. Husteads knocked others out of the park and will be coming back for any future work. Absolutely deserving of a five star rating!! read more

Do not take your car here , if you need it repaired within a timely matter! Unprofessional is an understatement. My car had minor damage , normally repairs would take less than a week. Its been a month, still no official date on completion. Rich is full of crap, don't believe a word he says. read more

Once again I want to thank Joel and his team for a great job they did on my Lexus gs350. For a quality job done fast and professionally I'd go here again read more

My experience was very positive. I will definitely consider going back should I need their services again. read more

It took them 12 days to fix my car, i guess perfection takes time. definitely, highly recommended! Arthur and Rich are very helpful and personable look for them when you call the shop. read more

Someone rear-ended my mother's Lexus while parked. Although it was considered to be of minor damages, we brought it in to Husteads Auto Body in Concord, CA to discuss options. We were put in contact with Joel who answered all our questions and got back to us promptly. He was very thorough in his explanation including giving me a quick tour of part of the facility to show how they repair and paint auto parts. He was extremely patient and honest with me (telling me costs and what to expect in the finished product). He was able to pop back in the fender on the spot and we decided the car looked good enough and did not require further repairs from the accident. Upon further inspecting the car, we noticed stratches on one of the side doors. He was able to repair it like new and my mother was very happy. The workers showed care for my mother while she waited for the repair to be done. We are very pleased with the service and care the company provides. read more

I have been going to Simply Superior for more than 20 years. I have owned multiple Lexus, Mercedes, and Audi vehicles over the years, and hate to admit that circumstances have led me to SS around 10 times. Rich, the owner, has always been the utmost professional. Most of the repairs have been tricky. high end cars (RS7, S550, LS430, etc.) have more problems, such as difficult paint, scarce parts, and pickier owners. Most, but not all, of the repairs have gone quite smoothly, though a couple have had problems. It is the problem cases that gives a company the opportunity to shine. It is how you handle your customers that sets you apart from others. And that is what has inspired me to write a review. Rich handles problems as a true professional. He will make sure that you are completely satisfied. I can highly recommend Simply Superior !!! read more

Just purchased myself a brand new 2019 black on black Range Rover Velar. Not even having the car for less than 24hrs I received a nasty scratch on the driver side door which was very visible do to the black high gloss paint. Needless to say I was devastated thinking geez how much is this going to run me to get it fixed because I couldn't bare looking at this hideous scratch EVERY time I entered my vehicle. Before deciding to to take it back to the dealership to get it buffed out or whatever the case maybe I decided to call around and get prices which brings me to Simply Superior Auto Body. Not sure if there's a higher compliment than superior but if so this place is it. Upon calling the shop I was greeted by the owner by the name of Rich. I explained to Rich about the scratch on the door and figured he would just give me some crazy estimate of thousands of dollars for the repair but instead Rich told me to come on down and let him take a look at the problem. Upon arrival Rich took a look at the scratch from a couple of different angles and proceeded to have me follow him to his office were he gave me 3 different options on how to fix the problem. Not once was there a moment I felt like this guy is going to try and murder my pockets. Rich was honest friendly and above and beyond fair, I see exactly why his business flourishes! A job that should of cost me thousands of dollars do to taking of panels, matching the beautiful high gloss paint etc. Rich advised me to get touch up paint from the dealership and let him try and buff the scratch out before we take further steps. Needless to say Rich worked magic with his idea!! Upon picking my car up I could not tell where and if there was a scratch ever on the vehicle. Did I also mention he refused to let me pay him for the job he did since he considered it very very minor. End up buying him and his crew lunch for the day and driving off with a unblemished Range Rover. Salute to Rich and Superior for a overwhelming GREAT EXPERIENCE!!! Wish I could give you guys 100 stars!! read more

I wasn't able to get any work done from Husteads, however the short phone call I had was very pleasant, informative, and I was pointed in the right direction for what I am in need of. read more

I've had a dent in my lexus for quite a while now, i brought it to another shop that told me i would have to replace the entire bumper because the dent wasn't fixable. I came to Husteads and Jose helped me immediately. He popped out the dent in less than 10 minutes! The Service here really makes you feel taken care of, Tiffany also helped reassure all of my questions. Having Jose's help saved me a lot of time, money and frustration! Wonderful customer service, appreciated all of the help and would recommend choosing this auto body shop! read more

Today I went by to have them consult me on some overspray that I had on my car and to see if something could be done about it. Rich came out in his PPE and spent his time checking the car out. Instead of giving me a quote to what he can do about it he told me what to do at home and if it didn't work he provided me with a place I can bring it to that would make the paint look perfect. I tried what he said at home and it worked great! I will gladly bring my car to them when I need work done. read more

I went to Husteads after reading other yelp reviews and I would recommend this shop to everyone!! Manny was amazing...great communication, he worked with insurance for me & made sure I knew exactly where the car was in the repair process. The car looks great. They text you every step of the repair process...all the staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

My experience with Hustead's was relatively good. They continued to update me about my car, and would call me to let me know when it was ready. They ultimately did a good job on the exterior, which is all I needed done. I opened up my backseat a couple hours later to put something in my car, and a opened bag of Chex mix was sprawled across my backseat. The chips were everywhere and I looked at the bag and it seems as though a rat or mouse had chewed into the bag. They also chewed through my sun shield so now I have to get a brand new one. Why was a rat in my car when I trusted them to work on the exterior? Does this mean they opened my door, if so, for how long? This makes me very uncomfortable with how long they left my car seemingly unattended, allowing rodents to hop in my car and make a mess in my backseat for me to clean up! (I have video evidence, I wish I could post it on here) read more

Under new ownership but still the same great service provided by Rich L. I've known Rich for a few years now and my 2014 Mazda 3 Hatch still looks almost new. He's earned go-to-guy status for his friendly and professional demeanor. He runs a local shop that provides great service and workmanship when you're not looking for a Costco of body shops. read more

I was assisted by Jose. He is very friendly and knowledgeable. He answered my car bumper questions and suggested that no body work was required after a vinyl wrap was performed which caused it to be slightly misaligned. There was no sale but his knowledge and professionalism was top notch. If I ever require body work in the future, I know where to go. Thanks Jose. read more

I am very satisfied with Husteads auto body repair to my front bumper. My car was returned to me clean, shiny, smooth and well again. As well, Dustin assisted us with friendliness, efficiency and timeliness. I was nearby when my car was finished and Husteads had it ready to go - issue free! read more

I was referred to SImply Superior by my company car administrator after my bumper had an unfortunate run in with a concrete pole. Uh yeah. I have no idea how it happened, the pole just popped up out of nowhere. The guys here were awesome. They did a really good job of following up on my service and fixed my bumper in only 2.5 days! They did such an amazing job that I literally did not recognize my car after it was all fixed up. It was probably because they washed it too, but it was so so clean and shiny and dent free that I couldn't believe it was the same car! I can't really comment on the price since my company picked up the tab. Also, since i haven't a clue about cars I don't even know what a good price would be, but whatever they charged, it was definitely worth it. read more

I was referred to Rich by my mechanic, after I had gotten into an accident in my Mercedes C230. Having never dealt with a body shop, the insurance process, and a auto claims adjustor- I was overwhelmed. Rich was patient, up front, and explained in depth how the situation should progress. He dealt directectly with my insurance company (taking the pressure off of me) after quickly producing a fair and honest estimate. The accident occured during the holidays, and although my car did not end up being repaired, he allowed me to store my vehicle an extra few days until I could straighten everything out with my insurance. It is never fun dealing with a car accident and all of the repercussions, but Rich made the ordeal as painless and smooth as I could have asked for. He even took the time to help call around to get me the best deal for my car...Outstanding! Although I cant comment on his repair work, the shop was remarkably clean and seemed consistenly busy- and the cars that were fixed looked great! Thanks again Rich for all of your help! read more

I am so grateful to Husteads! They helped me say goodbye to my old car in a sweet and sentimental way when repairs were greater than the car was worth (the car had been in our family for three generations!). More recently they got my new car looking brand new again after I got in a little fender bender :( Melinda who works in the front was so kind and helpful through all of these experiences (accidents are very stressful as we all know!), as were the guys in the shop. Thank you Husteads! I hope I will not need your help again soon :) but I am so grateful for the help you have given me thus far. I highly recommend this shop! read more

my car came out brand new !! Rich took really good care of me and my car. Family owned and treated me like family!!!

Update:fixed my car and seat they damaged but they never called me giving me updates I had to always call. Friendly but poor customer service Two stars... because they did do a good job with my car took it in due a hit in run. GEICO reffered them to me and I saw they had good reviews. They were very friendly, the car took a little over two weeks. When I picked it up I saw that was passenger seat was damaged it didn't stay still. Now every time I drive it goes front and backwards. I let them know right away when I left and they tried to fix it but no luck. This was at 9am and they said they would have a manager call me. You would think a manager would call me it's the end of the day and nothing. The person I spoke to who I won't say his name told me "oh yea I saw on the pictures we took your seat was all the way in the front". You would think the manager would care and call me at least to bull**** me. But nothing. Staff is friendly but very irresponsible I WILL UPDATE IF THEY FIX MY SEAT! I can't even put my daughter in her carseat in the back without the seat smacking her. I can't even drive it because I can't see or use my right side mirror due to the passenger seat moving all the time. I hope manager sees this and takes responsibility for what his team did. I won't stop until they fix my seat!!!!!!!! read more

Rich and his team kept me up to date with repairs and quickly returned my vehicle to its pre loss condition. Great customer service and superior craftsmanship. Job well done. read more

I Went To this place to get an estimate about two weeks ago and the guy wrote the estimate and I wanted to drop off the car which I did my car was there for two weeks we did not come to an agreement and terms of the estimate and my deductible they drove my car they were not honest with me regarding that my Car Is trashed when I picked up my vehicle and the owner admitted that he drove my car 2 miles the shop is not honest with customers I WillNot recommend anyone to the shop read more

I had to hit a metal object on the fwy (because I couldn't change lanes) and it did huge amount of damage to the undercarriage of my car. Hustead's was amazing to work with. They meticulously fixed every part of the damage (having to hunt down some parts from as far away as TN). They did all this during the corona virus and worked to get my car back to me in mint condition during this crisis. The people were wonderful to work with. I highly recommend them. read more

I chose Simply Superior mainly b/c it is the only Diamond Certified body shop nearby. I discussed price with Rich, the owner, who is as personable as he is professional. Price quoted was fair -- he matched price quoted at another shop -- and the quality of work is excellent. The car was ready the date promised, and, to my pleasant surprise, it was even washed! Although I hope to avoid the need for more body work anytime soon, if and when I do I shall return to Simply Superior w/o passing go. read more

I drove over a rock in my driveway and messed up the car bumper. I yelped 3 auto body shops and planned to visit all three and get quotes. I knew there would be a range and frankly didn't want my insurance to go up nor did I need a new bumper or a new looking perfectly perfect bumper. I explained the situation at Husteads, and the gentleman who greeted me explained that they could remove the bumper, sand it, repaint it, etc. OR-secure the bumper and call it a day. Which Johnny came over and did, in about 10 minutes while I sat in the car. They weren't going to charge me so I tipped Johnny. I am so happy. It looks perfect. You would not be able to tell that something happened to it at all. I love my car a ridiculous amount and was super stressed out about this. In life it's pretty rare to get a fix quickly and for free. With car problems, that NEVER happens. I hope I never have a need for car body work. But if I do, I will absolutely return to Husteads. I recommend this shop without any doubt. read more

I took my car to Simply Superior Auto Body last week and had a great experience. I only needed to have minor work done on the side body panels of my Honda minivan. They were able to reshape the dent, buff out paint from a post that I hit, clean up some minor rust, and do touch up paint work. My car looks 10 times better than when I brought it in and everything was very reasonably priced. Simply superior also did the work very promptly and the overall customer experience was fantastic. Thank you to Rich and the entire Simply Superior Auto Body team! read more

This was my first experience having to take my car to the auto body shop and I was pleasantly surprised. Rich Lezcano is wonderful and honest proprietor and he was quick to help me with prices that were fair and reasonable. With all of the smarmy, crooked auto repair shops out there preying on the general public, this place was a breathe of fresh air. Thank you, Rich, Ted, Mona and all the repair guys for making my car look like I just bought it again (it's a 1994 Honda, Accord). Awesome job! read more

Simply Superior is okay if you have a lot of patience. Granted my car was side swiped and severely damaged it took almost 9 weeks to fix my car, however I was initially told 3 maybe 4 weeks at most. They charged my insurance company almost $20,000, when I strongly feel the car should have been totaled (it wasn't though as SS said it was fixable). I still have problems with my car they had for 9 weeks, but will not go back to SS. read more

I'm a fanboy, these guys are great. Talk to Rich, he'll take care of you. I had these guys replace the sunroof in Navigator when another auto shop wanted 2k, yes 2k to replace it. Superior charge me less than half. I also call these guys for referrals as well. read more

I stopped by to help me find a water leak in my Tundra. Rich, the owner, stopped what he was doing, and spent 20 minutes looking at my truck with me. He then offered me a very reasonable cost to find the leak, scheduled, did the work as promised, on time, and was super helpful and professional. The total opposite of what you experience at most body shops, especially when you are not referred by insurance. The ONLY place to go from now on. read more

Such wonderful service! Rich was quick, reassuring and informative. Kindness during a stressful situation goes a long. It was very much appreciated. read more

I brought my 2004 Chevy Tahoe here for some minor body work last year and was very impressed with how quickly and efficiently it was fixed! This year I was rear ended and brought my other car to be fixed. The other parties insurance was covering the cost and Rich and his staff made it easy breezy. Dropped my car off ad could walk to the rental car location just 2 short blocks away. My car was finished on time and the work was excellent. In todays world good, honest and hard working professionals are very rare, but Rich and the staff at Simply Superior are GREAT! I have an auto body shop for life now and I highly recommend them! read more

I was mortified to scratch the paint job on my new Mazda Soul Red CX-5. Concord Mazda recommended that I go see Rich at Simply Superior. He was very kind and actually had the red paint at the shop, and on-the-spot had one of his service men touch up the mark. I will surely take this car back to him when I need auto body and paint work. And I HIGHLY recommend Rich and his organization to anybody and everybody. Thank you so much, Rich! Kathy Rogers read more

Been going here for years... Have used them for myself and all my family ... If you are looking for top notch bodywork there is no other place to go. Rich runs a very professional shop that delivers the highest quality of work I have ever seen in the east bay. Don't let your insurance tell you to go elsewhere... Demand the best and take it to them. read more

I've taken both my cars to Simply Superior and I believe​ they are honest and fair and they do great work. They say what they do, do what they say, and then some. I like the way they do business and wouldn't​ take my car anywhere else. Can't recommend Rich and his crew enough! read more
