I can't say enough good things about Lake Bluff Auto Body. They did fantastic work fixing my car…read moreabout a month ago, and the experience from start to finish was seamless. Recently, I went back in with an issue on my side mirror, and once again they completely exceeded my expectations. The repair was done in about 45 minutes, and I was back on the road in no time. What really sets this shop apart is how quick, honest, and reasonably priced they are. It's rare to find an auto body shop that combines high-quality workmanship with integrity and efficiency, but Lake Bluff Auto Body truly does. They clearly care about their customers and take pride in their work. I would very highly recommend Lake Bluff Auto Body to anyone who needs auto body repairs. You won't find better service or more trustworthy people anywhere else! Your vehicle is in good hands.

Work was supposed to take 3 days, so I called on Wednesday to ask what time I could pick it up. They had not even started the work and now the estimate almost doubled to $2400+.

I used him for decades but then my insurance company made a contract with Swartout which is equally good. But I would probably rather go back to Gregg because he is less expensive than any other shop.

Thankfully, no one was hurt, although my ego needed some attention. I called Certified Auto Body and was immediately taken care of. Debbie, the owner, had a tow truck out within the hour (the car was not fit to drive). They managed the insurance claims process for me and arranged a rental car for us before we left the shop. The prices were extremely fair, and we had our car back good as new within about a week. By far the best, smoothest, and most pleasant car experience - of any kind - I have had. These guys know what they are doing, and it shows. Highly recommend!

What was quoted as a 3-week repair on our brand-new Toyota Tacoma turned into a 15-week nightmare with 17 different delays. The mechanical team failed to conduct a thorough initial inspection, leading to a "can of worms" scenario. We went through 3-4 iterations where they only discovered a new necessary part after we had already waited weeks for the previous one. Most concerningly, they tried to convince us to accept mismatched struts on a brand-new truck. We had to repeatedly push back to ensure the vehicle was actually restored to its original state. If you value communication, technical competence, and attention to detail, look elsewhere.
