We were a victim of hit n run on the side and friends pointed me to this shop. They marked up areas for repair and handled insurance claims. Once through the works were progressing timely. The quality of craftsmanship is also top notch, everything's aligned and the paint blending is perfect. This is my go to place now read more

Really high quality of work! They're particular in the best ways, immaculate and doing the right things. Also painless and helpful in collaborating with insurance adjusters read more

Have taken my Honda Odyssey van here twice for body work and they are the absolute best. No issues with their work. With respect to pricing, both times were covered under the other drivers insurance. Paid out of pocket for sliding door scratch while the van was in the shop for the insurance covered repairs - you definitely get what you pay for with this body shop. My friend Chris T. who is my go to friend for any car advice told me to take my "baby" car here after my first accident when a woman rear ended me. Josh has always been very nice and responsive. They work on a LOT of high end cars here ... and minivans with owners like me read more

The Works Auto Body has done two jobs on my 1967 Lancia Fulvia Coupé, and both have been done just right. The first job was reshaping the fender inners to fit more modern wheels and tires properly ... It works just right now. The second job was a bit of rust repair and refinishing the rocker panels to a more sporty look in matte black, along with adding some finishing touches to the rear of the car (the original LANCIA Fulvia badge and rally-style covers for the old bumper mounts. Fine work, all of it, and big thanks to both Josh and Chris! read more

While I was waiting at a drive-thru window, the driver behind me was texting and rammed into the rear bumper of my 124 Spider. After The Works Auto Body did their magic, you could never tell that anything happened. This car is painted a beautiful pearl white metallic and I worried that the body shop would not be able to match the factory finish. No need to worry. These guys know what they are doing. I also had them repair some minor front end damage and everything turned out perfectly. So impressed--I have looked all around this car and cannot find anything wrong. Good pricing, good communication, and excellent attention to detail. Recommended, especially if you are a car enthusiast and sweat the small details! Thanks guys!!! read more

Due to heavy construction in my neighborhood, I had road marking paint and gravel damage on my new car, and I was desperately looking for a high-quality auto body shop to work on it. Then I found Chris and the Works Auto Body through a friend who highly recommended the place. I took my car in for a full exterior makeover in July and got it back in September. The results were fantastic. Chris, Josh, and the whole crew did an incredible job. Their paint-matching skills are exceptional. Believe me, I'm super picky and notice everything, but they absolutely knocked it out of the park. I can't recommend this place enough. It was a great experience from start to finish working with this team. read more

We were referred to The Works by Dynamic Detailing. We had to have two panels repainted on our Subaru that were faded and mottled from the elements. They did a great job! The paint matched perfectly and the car was left in a very clean state. Thank you, Josh! read more

The quality of work is unmatched by anyone else! Chris and Josh are great to work with and are honest and dedicated to highest degree of perfection. read more

Customer service here is top notch. I'll never go anyplace else. Cant wait to get my car in and repaired.

The car gets bent, comes out straight and shiny. These guys know their craft. Ask for Josh. He's the man.

I was bowled away by my experience with The Works - Josh and Chris redefined going above and beyond. My need was different - I was looking at buying a car that had damage from a previous accident and wanted to get a good body shop to check it out before I decided on buying it. I called The Works and reached Josh. I'd never worked with them before, but Josh asked me to send over pics of the car, he went through them, taking me through his analysis in detail - and I hadn't even booked a service with them. Also, I had to make a decision within a day on the car and I wanted to get it checked at a body shop as well as do a full mechanical PPI. Josh couldn't fit me in, so I thanked him for his guidance and told him over email that I will find another body shop because I couldn't wait. Josh asked me for the details of the mechanical PPI, and guess what, when I was doing the mechanical PPI, Chris turned up! Chris was such an expert and did a great analysis and was even able to show me where the work had been previously done. This was so helpful! The thing that struck me the most was that both Josh and Chris really cared that I made the right decision! The fact that they took time, for someone who wasn't even a current customer speaks volumes. I am 100% going to take my cars there if the need arises, as well as recommend The Works to my friends. read more

3.5 stars. We have been dealing with Chris solely for years, and his service had been excellent and personable and of 4.5 to 5-star quality, but since Chris embarked on other ventures and our last couple of visits for repair were left to believe he was on his way out. A new apprentice was stepping up to manage the shop while Chris was hardly around. That personal service, care, and attention from Chris we miss. Turn around time had been longer while the repair work and service had also gone down. It has not been the same. read more

I brought my Mercedes in to fix my bumper that was hit. I got an estimate from the dealer but took it over to The Works. They were 30% cheaper and fixed it within a week. The dealer said it would take 2-3 weeks. The finished product was great. They were very responsive and easy to do business with. read more

I've asked Chris and his crew to fix a few cars over the years. The latest was a parking lot side swipe to our Alfa Romeo. As usual, the quality of the work was spectacular. I don't shop anywhere else for auto body repair. Thanks Chris!! read more

Just about at ANY given time that I visit The Works I will see exotic cars like Ferraris, Lambos, Porsche, etc. I've had them do 4 of my cars & truck: 1993 RX7 1993 NSX 1998 S10 2005 GTO 2013 MX5 and my brother's 2004 RX8 EVERYTIME the work exceeds my expectations. As a matter of fact I'm more worried about the repainted/re-worked area not only looking newer, but better from the factory as if that's how the car should have come outta the factory if they had unlimited budget. Here are the key take-aways: - No overspray (they use this water-soluble protective spray that covers the entire car to prevent "overspray" that happens at the lessor body shops) - No tape marks/texture - They even match the factory "orange-peel" or smooth glass finish. - They paint the metallics so well that there are no need to blend into perfect panels (saves costs) I've sent friends and even some VERY anal-retentive car owners of some fine cars and have yet to hear a complaint about The Works. read more

Probably The Best Auto Body Shop!!! Josh was just wonderful in helping me with my Porsche 911SC body and exterior issues. Super professional body shop with top notch customer service and attention!!! Thank You Josh!!! read more

The Works Auto Body did repairs on my Lexus RX350 after it was sideswiped. I was so disappointed in my insurance company's responsiveness, but these guys were so great that the whole experience was great. I picked up what looked like a brand new car. They washed it, inside and out and never once complained about how long my vehicle was with them. I highly recommend them for painting and body work. read more

I was referred to The Works Auto Body by my mechanic. I checked the Yelp reviews and chose them over the body shops that were in my insurance's network of preferred shops. Josh took great care of everything from start to finish. He was very friendly and courteous. I am very happy with the work that they did on my car which I love. They even gave my car a very good wash! I only saw Chris, whom I see praised in many of the reviews, at the end in his office but I can say Josh is awesome. I guess that's just the way they run their shop. :) read more

My name is Claudia and I am using my husbands Yelp account. I recently had my Honda worked on and I want to thank Chris and Josh for fixing my car up as good as new. I had a bumper replaced and the roof repainted. Great job!!!! Paints matched perfectly!! Completed in a timely manner. If you want quality workmanship and wonderful customer service, this auto body shop is for you!! read more

Had my 2004 Ford Lightning and 1984 Porsche 911 insurance work done here. Chris and Josh were very understated and honest. They do work that wasn't called for but refines and do not take credit for it. The bottom line is they do very good work and they are honest. read more

I took my 2003 bmw m5 to their shop since my hood release cable snapped, and I couldnt open my hood. I dropped it off on a Tuesday, and they ended up getting the cable and other parts for it that same day! They wrapped the job up within a couple hours and it was ready the same day. I did not expect it to be done so fast, so I asked if I could pick up the car the next day and it was no problem to them. Definitely recommend this place. read more

Took my 325i here after being sideswiped by a Chinese couple in a minivan who couldn't merge well and clipped my left rear fender. The work was done on time and they did a great job! No orange-peel effect to the paint. It's been a couple of years since I had the work done and the shine has held up well. They also did a perfect job of matching the pinstriping. The shop is large and clean and seems to be well run. I'd go there again and trust them fully anytime. read more

WOW. After my car was backed into, I brought my car here to get a new bumper and paint. Quick and great work. Once my car was delivered they wasted no time in stripping my car down and ordering the new bumper. And the paint job - spectacular!!!! Great color match - now I have to get the rest of my BMW 335i repainted... Oh, and I absolutely love the detail they did right after the car was painted. Amazing work, thank you Mike!!!!! Will be back if I'm ever in need of body work. read more

Chris and his staff did an excellent job! They provided a variety of options that allowed me to get all the bodywork I wanted done within my budget. Excellent work and customer service. read more

this time it was a new '11 Golf TDI that got front end caved in up to engine block. Since it was only 30 days old early in the model year, parts were a bit hard to procure and some of them were faulty repeatedly, but the guys got all the issues squared away, got the wiring figured out, again a brand new model made things a challenge. Paint and panel alignment are perfect. Process took about double the time of the original estimate, due to parts issues, but it was done right and that's what is important. I think the strength here is the quality of workmanship. There isn't anything these guys can't do when it comes to metal and paint. read more

I recently smashed into a curb right before leaving town on vacation. On the advice of my mechanic I went to The Works. Thank you Bill at Motorspeed West. This is a great shop with fantastic customer service. Josh spent quite a bit of time with me originally as I wanted to handle the repair myself, but after finding more damage than expected he helped me get my insurance company involved. The work was done on time and I am very satisfied with their customer service. read more

As good as it gets in the bay area for quality paint work and restoration body work. Had Chris do several vintage motorcycle projects for me and a car. All top flight work. Very happy. You get what you pay for in this area, and these guys deliver, consistently. read more

Received a recommendation to bring my insurance claim here. So glad I did! Josh was responsive and helpful, Chris went out of his way to drive me to my rental car. My car was done quickly, can't tell there was ever damage. Best auto shop in the Bay! read more

Chris and his team are true artists. They take a high amount of pride in their work. They've recently added an incredible painter to their team; I had work done on one of my cars by the new gentleman and I was blown away by how well the color matched on a notoriously difficult paint. Tell Chris once what you want and it gets done. He is exceptionally honest about his capabilities and sets expectations like a professional. When it comes to work like this, I'm a tough customer - he made me unconditionally happy, which I can't say for any collision center that I've worked with ever. Five stars. read more

My car got rear-ended recently - only gouged up the bumper itself with the perpetrator's license plate hardware, but still enough to make me depressed about my otherwise-pristine M3 I had shipped from a Midwest dealer. I was even more dismayed when insurance would not pony up for a brand new bumper, but instead for reconditioning and repainting my existing bumper. I shouldn't have worried - the refinished bumper looks good as new, and I can't tell at all that anything ever happened. Josh was very helpful throughout the whole process, and using insurance went smoothly. The car was ready in a reasonable amount of time as well, which is good given my separation anxiety when it comes to my car. I hope I don't have to use a body shop again anytime soon, but if I do, I will feel safe with my beloved car in the hands of The Works! read more

These guys are the best body shop. They service high end cars and do great work. I should know I have dealt with them on more than one occasion. Their paint work is outstanding. They are honest and make every effort to get the job done effectively and efficiently. Highly recommend them. read more

When I read another review on here I had to write my own. I have to disagree with the quality of the body work and welding. When I received my car back the welds were not clean. The painters shot clear coat in trunk, only in the repaired area. The result was two different sheens that made the repair even more obvious. Micromarring on top of the roof, clearcoat (this area needed no repair). My theory is something was placed on top, maybe a mug who knows. Finally, the muffler was not aligned. The paint job on the bumper itself was quite nice (glasurit, the best). Although they do work on high end vehicles I believe the quality of work is not the same for vehicle less than 100k. read more

I can't thank Josh and crew for their efforts on my 2017 Audi RS7. The damage from the accident wasn't severe, but it was located in a very difficult area around the gas cap opening, back door and rear quarter panel. All needing replacement. The paint was a metallic with varying hues of color. It was very difficult to paint. They knocked it out of the park. The car was perfect when returned and detailed. The best repair I've ever had. My hats off to Josh and The Works Auto Body. read more

Nobody wants to be a regular at a body shop but after a minor hit and run to my car I had to go back to see Chris at The Works. He and his crew are the best in the business, the shop is at the end of a dead end road, close to SJC and my house...I can ride my bicycle there, just very convenient overall. I'm hoping I won't need their services again but if I do they are the absolute best!! read more

Great work done by Chris and his team for a small but annoying front bumper scratch. They were very fast and pro. Last but not least, they were also VERY competitive on pricing. Highly recommended! read more

I took my 4runner here for an insurance job after some guy ran his stop sign and hit my passenger door. I was expecting it to be in the shop for a week but they managed to get it done in 2 days and they did an amazing job I would highly recommend this place to anyone read more

My PorscheCayman passenger fender required some repairs as someone reversed into my car. I wanted to go to a reliable shop and this was recommended by planet-9 forum. Chris the owner recommended that the fender be replaced rather than repaired which the ins co had insisted on. Chris was able to persuade the adjuster the cost of fixing the dent was going to be able the same cost as replacing the fender. I am totally happy with the results as the metallic paint was matched perfectly.Highly recommend this shop for any type of body work repairs. Great job Chris and Joe! read more

My wife was involved in a bad rear end accident recently. My good friend recommended to take my car to Chris and Josh at Works Autobody. I took it to them purely on Recomendation and had not heard of them prior. I am so glad I took it there. They fine tooth combed the damage and took the entire rear end apart. The car that hit us sprayed battery acid all over my car which was hard to notice. Chris eventually worked with my Farmers insurance ( not a fan of farmers insurance) and got them to agree to pay for all damages as well as repainting of my car. Josh kept me up to date on the status of the car and worked with the insurance guys to get everything taken care of. Great team of folks to work with and the end quality was fantastic. I brought the car back months later and complained about the alignment and they just took care of it. Fantastic!!! read more

Chris has worked on my cars for years when I've needed it. Whether its my 70 Boss 302, BMW or 2013 Shelby GT500, the work is always exceptional. Chris is meticulous in the quality of work that comes out of his shop. When it comes to quality, he is unmatched as far as I'm concerned. He has taken the hassle out of dealing with insurance when they are involved as well. Our family could not be happier with The Works and will continue to refer our friends to him. read more
