This was my first time working with an auto body shop. I was pleasantly surprised. Patrick was professional, conscientious, and communicative. The work was excellent and timely. I felt the company went above and beyond. 110%. The whole experience seamless. Couldn't have expected better results. Highly recommended. read more

Patrick has the kind of business you want to work with across the board. Stands behind his work, meticulous work, quick turnaround, super reasonably priced. Worth the drive to Petaluma if you're in Marin or Sonoma. Nothing to say other than stellar! read more

Lakeville Auto Body is truly a 10/10 business. The customer service is outstanding--every employee goes above and beyond, and it perfectly matches the high-quality work they deliver. After crashing my race car and needing to stay within a budget, Patrick took the time to walk me through multiple options and worked with me every step of the way. The final repairs exceeded my expectations, and now my go to shop for any future needs. read more

I was referred to Lakeville Auto Body by my boyfriend who has worked with Patrick throughout the years and was extremely happy with the work Patrick did on his cars. i brought my Porsche Macan to him because I had a few dents and paint scuffs. Patrick is EXTREMELY knowledgeable and passionate about his work. He offered me 3 different options for fixing the flaws. He was so honest that he actually recommended a cheaper way of fixing my car rather than trying to upsell me. Patrick is such a personable , honest and kind human being. I just picked my car up today and I'm extremely happy with the results. The turn around was so quick! I highly recommend this Auto body shop! read more

I had such a great experience with Lakeville Auto Body. Patrick, the owner, was incredibly responsive and walked me through all my options when I needed a new bumper installed. He was thorough, transparent, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. What truly blew me away was the level of care the team put into my car. There were tiny paint spots all over the back from overspray from when I stayed away from home -- probably hundreds of them -- and I honestly thought I was going to need an entirely new paint job. Instead, the crew took the time to gently remove them one by one. They made it look like new and got nearly every scratch off the car. When I picked up my 2013 BMW 650i, it looked like it had just rolled off the showroom floor. They even went above and beyond with detailing (which it definitely needed) and fixed little things that had been irking me for years. Meticulous work, fair pricing, excellent communication, and genuinely thoughtful service. I couldn't be more grateful for the extra care they took. Now it's the only place I'll go! Highly recommend. read more

Patrick and his team took incredible care of my 2004 Porche!!! I couldn't be more happy with their service.

What an incredible experience. I recently got a steal on a used Toyota Rav 4, but the only caveat was the bumpers needed to be replaced. Initially I was quoted at an incredibly high price from another shop. So I went to Lakeville Auto Body for a second opinion, and Patrick almost cut the quote in half! Not only did they put on brand new OEM bumpers, they also touched up some other spots on the car, making it look almost brand new! Patrick is a fantastic guy who will always go above and beyond for his customers. Top notch customer service, honest quotes, and high quality work! What more could you ask for? Oh yeah, and his dog is an absolute sweetheart as well! I will 100% be recommending anyone who needs auto body work done to come here. read more

If I could give Lakeville 10 stars, I would! I'm new to the area and unfortunately got rear-ended just a month after moving here (I've been here only a month and a half!). Not knowing where to go for auto work, I visited four different shops for estimates--and I'm so glad I chose Lakeville. Patrick, the owner, went above and beyond to take care of both me and my car. The work was completed on time, and the results were flawless--my car truly looks brand new. He even helped me arrange a rental car, which made the entire process so much easier. That kind of service is rare and deeply appreciated. I'll definitely be returning for any future repairs and highly recommend Lakeville to anyone in need of top-quality work and genuine customer care. Plus, Patrick has great dogs that make every visit even better! read more

I am very particular about my car. My car was badly damaged in the parking lot while I was shopping in Safeway. It was so badly damaged that the insurance carrier wanted to write if off. Patrick worked with me and the insurance company, preventing my insurance company from totaling my car. He kept me informed every step of the way. When I arrived to pick up my car, I walked right passed it. It didn't even look like my car. It looks brand new! Patrick repaired all body damage as well as the flaws, dings, dents, and scratches. I don't think my car looked this good when I purchased it as a certified used car from the Toyota dealer. Most body shops treat you as if you are a number and are only interested in your money, where as Patrick treats you as if you are family, a quality that I appreciate and that seems to have faded. He is a good family man, with many family members as employees., which you don't often find anymore. Patrick's body shop is my go to shop for any repairs, advice, and detailing service. He goes above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied and he wants you to be satisfied for life. read more

My experience with Lakeville Auto Body was nothing less than exceptional! I got quotes from several shops and and not only was Lakeville over $1,500. less than the lowest quote I received elsewhere, the repair looks far better than I imagined AND my car was spotless when I picked it up, what a magnificent surprise! I worked with Patrick who its clearly an artist, he had the work done expertly and in less time than expected. Needless to say, I wholeheartedly recommend using lakeville Auto Body! read more

Awesome great service Jason the owner knows his stuff,even older cars would recommend for sure!

Patrick and crew came to the rescue - our van's sliding door was not operating - - it was a complicated repair (which was verified) - they ordered the correct American part and installed in on a holiday - how is that for service - I was so pleased I asked them to do a few other minor repairs - they took care of those quickly for a nominal charge / Patrick, the owner, knows his cars for sure - while looking around the shop the staff were working hard on many beautiful vintage autos - obviously they are very talented but took my "not so exciting" situation on and treated it like it was a vehicle featured in "Car and Driver" magazine - thank you fellows ! read more

Patrick and the team at Lakeville Auto Body were absolutely incredible. The quality of the repair on my door was top notch. Patrick was extremely communicative and clear about the process. I HIGHLY recommend this body shop! Can't glow enough about them. read more

Patrick is an excellent (mechanic) Body Man. No BS, straight , honest talk. He did a supherb job on my Yukon. Did all he promised. I can't see myself going else where. His rates are very competitive. Thank You Patrick for your integrity Alan Medina read more

Patrick and his team are simply the best. I first met him in Marin when he worked on several of my cars, including my dad's, and I was impressed with his service. Recently, I needed a car detail and knew exactly where to go. I headed to his new shop in Petaluma, and once again, the quality of work amazed me. I can't recommend them enough. Thanks, Patrick and team! read more

I recently had a minor self inflicted dent in my vehicle. I took it to Lakeville Auto Body and Patrick evaluated the repair costs and time frame for said repairs. The work was completed within the time frame and you'd never know it was repaired. I highly recommend using Lakeville Auto Body for all your repairs. read more

I was recommended Lakeville Auto Body and I'm very glad I was. My car looks beautiful. Patrick was very helpful and kept me informed every step of the way. Communicating with him was always a pleasant experience. My car was completed in a very timely manner and taken good care of. Thank you! read more

Patrick is the best! He repaired my 2004 MINI to perfection. The insurance company wanted to total my car, but Patrick worked hard with the adjuster to save my vehicle. He kept me updated throughout the process and went above and beyond to be sure I was happy. He is a wonderful guy and does great work. Straightforward, honest, patient, fun, and very, very talented. Highly recommend!! read more

I am so impressed with Lakeville Auto Body! Patrick, the owner and his team are truly amazing. I was rear ended on the freeway, leaving my car pretty crunched up. I initially brought it to another shop in the area to look at and was told my car was not safe to drive and to bring it in when I had approval from the 3rd party insurance company. The next day I stopped at Lakeville Auto, concerned about the safety & damages; Patrick also told me it was not safe to drive and immediately got on the ground, slid under the car and worked on straightening out the tailpipe, which was about a foot from where it should have been. But he didn't stop there; he got his tools and spend another 15 minutes working on it until he felt it was safe to drive. When he asked me if I had a claim # and an adjustor, I gave him the info. He got on the phone and insisted in a pleasant but firm manner that I needed a rental car immediately. This was about 3 days after the accident and I wasn't getting much support from the insurance company. Within 45 minutes after Patrick's call, I had a rental. The work was somewhat extensive--2+ weeks in the shop. Patrick kept me informed during the entire process and when the work was completed & I picked it up, my 7 year old car looked almost brand new. Perfect paint job, super clean in & out and it runs beautifully. I agree with the other reviews--I would give Lakeville Auto 10 stars if I could. This company sets the bar very high. read more

I was extremely satisfied with the quality of work and the great service. Kristin (hope I got her name correct) was very helpful and very efficient. I highly recommend this auto body shop. read more

Patrick at Lakeville Auto Body was professional, through and fair. He got me in same day to work on my car, and I can't express how reassured I felt to have someone trustworthy and honest to get the job done! He kept me in the loop every step of the way and was very transparent. Save yourself the stress and worry and go here!! Thank you Lakeville Auto Body!! read more

So I buy a new car and a month later I get a hit in a parking lot from an unknown. I don't like my cars not perfect so I start thinking of ways to fix it. Having experience in the auto business first thing I think is, I can fix that. After thinking of what tools I have to buy and materials I say to myself maybe I should just go see what it cost for a pro to fix it. I have been to Lakeville Auto Body before in Petaluma. As it turns out I ran into Patrick Doherty, the new owner of about a year. I told him there was no dent and frankly I just wanted to see any paint back on the hit area. Patrick, whom I had never met, says while here are the three ways to fix it. I stated while I just want paint back on it. He than says to me, while why don't I just touch it up for you now and if that works fine and if you can't live with it we can do a full job on it. Of course I almost feel over. He stopped what he was doing got some tools and paint and he was done. He never tried to sell me anything. He is a great find and I encourage those who need help to check him out. 707.778.1622. read more

I got a recommendation to go to Lakeville auto body from a neighbor so I went and talked to Patrick he was a genuine guy walked me through what his procedure would be so I gave him a chance and I wasn't disappointed at all he always kept in contact and updated me all the way through. Also would like to give his whole crew a great big thanks they did a fantastic job my truck looks brand new again 100% I would recommend them to anyone read more

I'm so glad I found them. They did an awesome job with my Honda Accord. I accidentally hit a dear and my insurance was sending me to a few shops I didn't like. The shops they suggested told me that they just need to replace the bumper and it should be done by the end of the day. That sounded like they were just doing a job and that's it. But when I went to Lakeville Auto Body Kristen was very detailed and told me that it might take a few days. My car took about 2 weeks and when I came to pick up my car. My car didn't look the same.. It looked like a brand new car. I rather wait and know that they did took their time and made sure everything is fine. My car was clean inside and out when I picked it up. I'm happy with their work. read more

I went in today to see about a repair. Without going into detail, I was greeted by the rudest lady in business for quite sometime. I actually felt sorry for her when I left. Went to a competitor down the road who answered all my questions before I asked. Thank goodness for options read more

Once again my poor car was hit while minding its own business in a parking lot. Considered a hit and run since no one left a note! I've taken my cars to Lakeville Autobody for repairs for the past dozen or so years. The quality of work is impeccable !! Mike, the owner, is very thorough in the quality of his team performance to ensure that my car looks perfect. I appreciate his office manager Kirsten who keeps me posted on the progress of my car and arranges my rental. I live in Santa Rosa and could go to a local Autobody but know I'd not be as satisfied as I have been with Lakeville Autobody. Thanks to Mike and his team my car looks like new!! read more

Lakeville Auto Body - Ouch - Body Shops Near Me - Petaluma, California

Did an excellent job on my cars body work. The communication could be a little quicker but they bargained with my insurance company to get me the best parts when they could have easily accepted non factory parts. Thank you for the good work! read more

Mike is great. I got a,full length scratch on my brand new Mercedes and took it to another body shop where i was told the car had to be painted at a cost of $3200. Mike worked on it by hand and the scratch has vanished! The cost...... $120. Wow. So happy! They are honest with integrity. I will use them again read more

Just wanted to thank Lakeville Auto Body for the seamless experience. I've never really been in an accident or dealt with insurance so it was all new to me. I was able to quickly get an appointment to drop off my car and I was updated every step of the way. I will definitely be back if need be. read more

I can not give enough positive praise to justify how great they really are!! Mike and the entire staff go way above and beyond. My car came back to me looking better than before the accident! If you want an amazing repair and wonderful staff to take care of things during the chaos an accident involves, look no further! read more

Just got my newly leased Audi A6 back from Mike after some fender damage. The repair looks great and was done as promised. The Hartford Insurance company (AARP) accepted Mike's estimate with pictures, so I did not have to take the car elsewhere for an estimate. A year ago I had damage on a BMW and Mike did a great job on that as well. I go to Lakeville Auto Body because of the great, personal service they provide. I prefer to be a customer, not just a number like you are at the big repair shops. Mike even helped my wife do some slight touch up on her car, at no charge. If you need car repair work done, go here. read more

My son came home with the dreaded, "Mom, come look at my car" line. Someone had smashed into his beater Honda as soon as he returned home from college for summer. He wanted to handle this on his own, but was not making smart choices with insurance coverage etc. I asked him to go to Lakeville Auto where I had gone before and he's soooo glad he did (and so am I !!) Mike Estournes is about the most honest, nicest ,business owner you'll ever want to meet. He found a used door, put it on and the car look better than when we started with a savings of $800.00 from next lowest quote. The car looks new because he waxed and polished the entire outside, and cleaned the inside. Oh, and let's not forget the beautiful black rental my son had for 2 days free of charge to us. He also told my son how badly he needed tires, and talked to him about being safe while driving. My son is buying four new tires with the money we saved tomorrow (Mike has no part in the tire purchase, except the safety lecture) My son just lost his dad, and he came home smiling today. THANKS, LAKEVILLE AUTO BODY. A little unexpected blessing that will not be forgotten. I will never use anyone else. read more

I've taken my car to Mike and Kirsten a couple of times, most recently after a rear-ender and they did a FABULOUS job on my Jetta! She looks better than the day I got her... I bought her used, to be fair, but still! Several years back when they were at the old location, Mike gave my brother and parents a great deal on a Volvo that took my brother safely through the most reckless years of his driving life. They communicate regularly throughout the repair process and I'm always impressed with how clean they keep the lobby area. And bonus - an adorable dog to hang with while you're there. Highly reccomended. read more

My leased car was rear ended. Mike looked the car over, told me what needed to be done and worked with the insurance company. It was painless and my car repair is perfect. My fiancé even trusted Mike with his collector car for repairs. Quality work done right! Thanks Mike! read more
