Direct. Honest. Fast. They made my car damage looking like it never happened. And at great value. Service required was auto repair. read more

Outstanding! For the first time in 20+ years I needed auto service and needed a new auto service company for an urgent repair Not only did the owner tell me to come right in he did the repair in the spot for a very low price. He could have taken advantage of the situation , but didn't . He's a good man who runs a good business . Everything tidy and professional. A real life-saver . I have found my service provider. I couldn't be more grateful . read more

If I could, I would give them 10 stars! This is the best car shop to bring your car to, if you want your car to look brand new! I got into a car accident and the front of my car needed to be fixed. Southie Auto Service team did the best job! My car looks brand new or even better! I was in a similar accident last year and I had it fixed in a different place and I was sooo unhappy with the way the other place fixed it. After Southie took care of my car this time, I cannot find the words to say how happy and grateful I am that I found this place! I will forever recommend them to everyone who needs any body work with their car! It took them less than a week to make my car look perfect again! Plus they are the nicest, kindest, most helpful people ever. read more

I was recently in an accident requiring front end work on my 4Runner. I have never needed auto body work before but everyone that I asked recommended Southie Auto. Tony and his team are really awesome. Not only did he take me in right away and did a great job repairing my vehicle, he also was instrumental in helping me navigate the insurance process which proved difficult. I am a lifelong resident of Southie and everyone I talked to about where to go had such great things about Southie Auto. They have been there a very ling time and have a well earned reputation. read more

Tony and his team are amazing. Honest, nice, and do great work. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I went once having a window problem in a new car and it was quickly fixed on the spot. I had hit some feature that stopped the window from working normally. Another time I had a small scratch and he fixed that on the spot for me without charge. Most recently, I rear-ended someone right near the shop and he was my first stop. He said to bring it to him the next day and he'd asses the damage with my insurance company and take care of everything in a timely manner. All around good guy, and makes everything so easy! read more

Based on the reviews I read, I chose to go here when my car was in an accident. The reviews are spot on. Tony and his crew are honest, nice people who do great work. We will now take both of our cars to Southie Auto Service from now on read more

Few business relationships feel as good as having someone you trust to do high-quality, well-priced work on your car. Tony and the team at Southie Auto Service deliver this in spades. I brought my '05 Volkswagen in for some cosmetic work on the front bumper and fender. Tony quoted a price below what I'd gotten elsewhere and also pointed out a few other cosmetic details that he would fix on the house. When I picked the car up a few days later, it looked practically new--not bad for a 16-year-old car! In addition to doing great work, Tony's just a likable guy. The kind of person you're happy to do business with. Thanks, Tony! I'll definitely be back the next time my car needs body work. read more

Great, all-American, honest men working at this place. I came in needing a new bumper for my Chevy Cruz, and they coordinated really nicely with me and my schedule. They even stayed open for me on Saturday morning so I could pick up my car in time to have it for work on Monday. Going through my insurance with them was really easy too. Just make sure you have all your paperwork with you and you know how they'll get paid (insurance sending them the money or you being reimbursed later etc) and you're all set. read more

Had a very positive experience repairing my bumper on my Porsche Macan, usually only trust my dealer but why over pay outrageous prices when this dealer handles for less cost, quality repair, quick service and hassle free communication. Highly recommend this place! read more

efficient, good quality, honest work, appreciated the transparency in pricing for services and no "hidden fees"

The owner was very friendly and quoted/charged significantly less for the work than other places. We were very happy with the outcome! It's a place you can trust! We will be returning. read more

I hit a curb causing some clips in the front bumper to fall off. I called and told me to drop it off at 7 am. At 8 am they called me back saying it's done and looks perfect! Great service and very quick. I definitely would recommend. read more

These guys were awesome, got my MA plates put on for free and couldn't have been friendlier. Def recommend to anyone! read more

Tony and his crew are amazing! He's very busy but accommodating! My car looks as good as new. He helped with all insurance paperwork.

My car had a dent caused at the dealership. I was upset because I didn't see it until I got home and the dealership denied having caused it. Southie Auto fixed it like new for almost no money. They were so nice and inexpensive. I highly recommend them. read more

Southie Auto is the best place I ever bought my car to. My husband recently had his 2019 Land Rover Velar damaged and the vehicle left the scene unknown. I never thought we would get the parts especially during Covid for the vehicle and was worried about the service but Wow. The Velar was done fantastic and looked brand new and the service was exceptional. I even brought my own Mercedes SUV which was dented a few months ago to Tony and it looks wonderful. I would recommended Southie Auto to anyone. Hard working bunch of employees and didn't pull any shade because I was a woman. True respect. read more

Seriously these guys are awesome! My rear bumper got very scratched up in a fender bender last month and they fixed it up perfectly! Their quote was low and when all was said and done, they total came out to $200 lower than the quote! They are nice guys and very hard workers. If you need body work done, go there and know you'll get great service! read more

Hubert is awesome! Fantastic job! My car was hit by another when I was making a U-turn. There was a huge dent on the quarter panel. The liability was 50-50 and I had to pay for the repair on my own since I didn't have full-insurance. I first went to another body shop. They said that the repair would cost $3000 and took 2 weeks, which was higher and longer than what I expected so I said no. A few days later one friend recommended this shop and gave me Hubert's contact information. Then I visited the shop, and asked Hubert about the pricing. It turned out the parts would cost more than $900, and he said the total cost, including the quarter panel and the bumper, would be $2600. Guess what, I accepted it. In about only one week, they told me that my car was ready for pick-up. Much to my surprise, not only did they repair the quarter panel/bumper, but also fixed the minor scratches on my car. Hubert charged my only $2500 in the end, but I insisted leaving $100 as the tip. read more

The dent in the door was deep and now looks brand new, paint matches and they touched up some other smaller scratches. They are easy to work with although very busy and had to move the repair date forward a day. read more

I was taking my car cross country and needed a whole slew of things fixed. Tony and team told me to bring it in at the crack of dawn (7am) and they were able to get everything done by noon. Other places would have easily taken two days. He also fixed a dent from a hit and run that we thought would have cost over a thousand for free. Southie auto price was also more than reasonable!! Other places was quoting us two to three hundred dollars more. Best mechanic I have encountered hands down! read more

We brought our 2002 BMW to Southie Auto Service to repair two large areas of rust on the body of the car. The owner did an AMAZING job and our car looks brand new! You seriously can't even tell that it was repaired, it's so seamless. The guy who works here is a master and clearly takes pride and care in his work. Not only that, but he gave us a great deal for the amount and quality of work that he delivered. We will 100% come back here if we ever have any other auto body needs! read more

This place provides top level engineering. My car makes noise whenever (and only when) I hit the brake, not the usual brake squeaking noise, but a "click-click" metallic thud. This has been more than a month and it worries me. I took it to the dealer. Dealer says "this is normal, drive more and it will go away". A month passed, same thing persists, and the noise got louder. So I went to Southie. The owner (Tony?) took the driver seat and started to reproduce the problem. I sat next to him. He heard the noise immediately, (while the dealer guys couldn't even notice the sound even after I pointed out), then he tried to locate the source. Here is the best part: I was talking to him, but he was like "hey! shut up! I am trying to focus!" :) He lifted my talking-ban after driving two rounds around the block, and decided to examine starting from the underneath of the driver's seat.... And he found a small bottle of water stuck under. So every time I brake, the bottle squeaks and pops back, thus making the click and thud. Ta-da! Of course he wanted to kill me for such a stupid problem. I wanted to kill myself too. He refused to take any charge even though it took half hour for an expert like him to find out. He won the fight of who-gets-the-bill and instead of killing me, he gave me a hug. I don't want to quote the famous "Handyman's Invoice" story here but, Tony, if you are reading this, I still think the correct way is to make a charge. I know this is minor issue but... Overall, I'm very impressed by the professionalism and engineering pride they took in their jobs. Thank you! read more

I can't praise this place enough. I took Big Red (2001 Jeep Cherokee) in for some repairs to the brakes and exhaust system. Not only were they up-front and honest, but the prices were reasonable and their work was done quickly. I showed up without an appointment on a saturday morning after calling only to confirm they were open. Upon arrival, they greeted me in the lot. I explained what was going on, was told to stand by my phone and I'd have a call back shortly with an estimate. I walked down to the redline and by the time I got to downtown crossing (only 25 minutes later) Southie had called back with a detailed estimate for all the work. Then, they had the work completed less than 3 hours later. I will be taking Big Red back here for all his work. read more

I had nothing done and it didn't cost me anything. I was visiting Boston from NYC when my 16 year-old car started producing a grinding noise. Noise came from the rear wheels when the car was in motion. I'd just had the tires replaced last week. Maybe the last shop screwed something up doing that? I dropped off my car early on a Saturday morning at Southie with anticipation that my brakes would need to be replaced but an assumption it would, of course, be something more serious. The mechanic eyeballed the rear wheel rotors and guessed it was the brakes. I was told I'd get it back by the end of the day, provided the parts arrived in a few hours. That was a surprise in itself. I'd been worried I wouldn't be able to drive back to NYC on Sunday. In the short amount of time it took to walk from the shop to my hotel in the Seaport area, I'd received a call that my car was ready for pickup. I wolfed down a complimentary breakfast, then walked back down to Southie. "There's your problem," the mechanic said, pointing to a worn out, warped dust shield on the garage floor. "I'd like to charge you, but, well..." He handed me my key and wished me safe travels. I said thanks and hit the road again. read more

I took my car over to Southie Auto Service last week after getting side swiped a couple of weeks ago, and I will never go any other car repair shop as long as I live in Boston. Not only are the guys running this shop real nice, but they accepted me despite having a pretty full lot, got my car fixed up in just a couple days, and handled all the insurance BS (They helped me replace a part that Geico didn't originally include in their assessment) with ease. As an added plus, especially for people that work long hours during the week, they are open until around noon on Saturdays (a lot of auto shops arent open at all). Obviously, the less times I have go to this place the better, but if I do need work done, I will not hesitate in taking my car over to these guys... read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. I recently was told by my Jeep dealership that my wrangler needed about $600 dollars worth of work done to it for things that I didnt even bring in Jeep for, problems that I was not even aware of, nor did I think they even existed, luckily a friend of mine goes to Tony for all of his Jeep problems, and recommended I stop by before I tell the dealership to go ahead and work on my car. NEEDLESS TO SAY, the dealership was trying to just charge me for things that didnt necessarily need to be worked on. Tony and the guys worked on my car and had it finished within the hour, they were GREAT! I will go to them for all my car repairs and checks from here on out. read more

My car got hit by a plow while I was out of the country for my wedding. In the middle of all our crazy blizzards, Geico couldn't find a tow company that would come get the car. Southie Auto Service called a ton of places, found me a tow, and got my car back to me in record time - looking better than before it got hit! I won't get into details on the cost but they will NOT screw you and are THE nicest people in the industry, in Southie, maybe even the world! There's a reason these guys are #1 on Yelp, I can't say enough good things about them!!! PS Is it weird that I want my car to get hit again so I can come back here?!? read more

Super fast and friendly service. Needed a heat shield repair which was diagnosed properly over the phone and then completed right away.

I've been here once for auto body work based on positive Yelp reviews. The low cost compared to other auto body shops in the area was also a contributing factor. I can say that I'm pleased, but still a little weary. When I went back to pick my car up the paint job wasn't perfect, I pointed out several dings and blemishes. They offered to fix it up and it was ready later the same day. I must say the final result looks awesome, but I wish they had done it right the first time. I recommend this place, but with caution. Be sure to double check the work. read more

I 100% recommend this place! I called on Monday with a hunch that I needed a front wheel bearing replaced and they said to bring it in Weds AM. I came in Weds AM, and they totally respected my opinion, confirmed my suspicion, and had my wheel bearing replaced within an hour and a half!!! And for a totally reasonable price - exactly what they quoted me on the phone, and less than what I thought I'd have to pay after researching online (the parts are never the worst part of the cost....). Thanks so much for fixing my car! :) PS - they are open from 5 am to 4 pm not 9 to 5. read more

Since I have had good luck here in the past, I brought my car here because my tire had a leak. They fixed it up for me while I waited and didn't charge me! I know I will be going here for a long time. read more

Reasonable, quick, and helpful! They fixed a big scratch on my door for about half of what others were quoting me and got me in within a few days. Emailing was responsive, if curt, and I'd def return. read more

As all of the others have said, this is a great shop. I brought my Lexus in for some minor paint work (but in a difficult place that would require repainting the whole fender) and they took the time to say it wasn't my paint at all, but the other car's bumper marks, and then they used some rubbing compound and took it out. Good as new!! And they wouldn't take any money at all for it!! These guys are honest, know what they are doing (they can paint even the more expensive cars - I saw their painting booth) and are very reliable not to run up your bill (when in my case they truly could). I recommend going to these guys first!! read more

I had a great experience at Southie Auto. Picking an auto body shop can be a daunting process, especially given the added stress associated with a recent car accident. I read a few good reviews about Southie Auto and decided to stop by and check it out. Tony (owner) immediately put me at ease, and explained how the process works with insurance, rental car, etc. Being that this was my first accident, I wasn't really sure how this works. Tony personally walked me through the process, and was extremely professional and friendly as well. I picked my car up this morning and it looks good as new, they even hand washed it! I would highly recommend this place to anyone in the Boston area. Even if you don't live in Southie, it's worth the extra effort to get down here to ensure high quality, professional work on your car. read more

These guys are great! I failed my inspection after finding out I needed new breaks and was quoted horribly high prices at a few other local garages. Not only did they fix my car in a few hours, but they saved me about $300 that I would have spent for not-so-great service. Everyone is super friendly, and the service was efficient and excellent. read more

I have been going to souhtie auto for years and have never been dissapointed. they are very reasonable and there workmanship is great. you won't be dissapointed ,check them out. Dan Car read more

I gotta say - I was skeptical when I saw a 5 star auto body/repair shop but these guys are the real deal! I just moved to the city and I decided to bring my car in to fix some bumper & paint damage, as well as with an issue coming from what I thought was the transmission . A quick ride with Tony and he was able to figure out that it was something way less problematic than that, and he figured out a separate issue that I was struggling with that I didn't even come in for. Prices were reasonable and it was done sooner than the estimated repair time. The car is way quieter and it rides much more smoothly. It doesn't feel like a crap car anymore. Highly recommend, definitely my go-to place in Boston for sure. read more

These guys are absolutely amazing. They are professional, friendly and do a great job. They replaced my bumper in under 2 days, and it looks good as new. Even more impressive, when I could not make it on time to pick the car up, they stayed open late just to meet me. I am so glad I went here and would definitely recommend this place. read more

These guys are TOP notch! I hit some ice last winter in my brand new car and swiped the side of my bumper and fender against a pole. Needless to say, it left me with a crunched fender and a lot of paint transfer. The issue was purely cosmetic , so I took my time to find a good Auto Body Shop since the car was new. After looking at reviews and receiving quotes from several different places, I settled in on Southie Auto Service; they had the best reviews and by far the cheapest quote (by about $400). The guys there are extremely personable and go above and beyond to make sure you have the best service possible. I was told they would need 2 days to do the repair, but they were able to turn it around in less than 24 hours. They stayed late on Veterans day to get the work done (and many of the guys are Veterans). I wish I had pictures of my car before the work was done so you could see the damage from the pole. After the work these guys did, my car looks brand new again. I cannot thank these guys enough and will be referring everyone I know to them. Do not have any doubt, if you need any work done on your car, GO TO THESE GUYS! read more

This place is excellent. I have always been scared/nervous to take my car to an auto repair shop as a young female, but this place truly has your best interest at heart and does excellent work. Not only is the work well-done and affordable, but I was shocked when they offered to wait until I was out of work (30 minutes past their closing time) to give me my keys. To find a place like this is so rare, and I'm so grateful to have them so close by read more
