I scheduled my vehicle for repair on a Monday. They changed it to Tuesday. I dropped it off and was…read moretold it would be ready by next Wednesday. I called on the following Tuesday and was informed that it would be another week due to an issue with parts. An issue I had no control over. I didn't appreciate not being kept up to date and I told the receptionist as much. I may have said it was bullshit practice not to keep a customer informed or something along those lines. I wasn't happy. Anyway, she was apparently offended and today, Thursday, the manager calls and gives me shit for being not nice. So to recap: 1-they told me when it would be ready 2-they knew that changed but didn't bother to tell me 3-I call to confirm pick up and THEN they tell me there's a delay 4-the manager then thinks it prudent to call and berate a customer and says he listened to the tape of the call and claims I hung up and swore at her - not so much, but whatever. I told him it's the lack of communication and the poor attitude that's the issue. Is it just me or should they have let me know what's going on? And according to the manager " you have a rental so it's no big deal" seems a bit off. Perhaps keep your customers informed of changes and don't piss them off by being stupid about it. I don't know about the quality of their work but their customer service leaves a lot to be desired. I'll review their work when I finally get my vehicle back.

Now there's MORE DAMAGE than before I dropped it off originally. The wiper sprayer wouldn't spray and the paint was poorly poorly done.

I brought it back. Within 1 day I receive an email "car is ready" I show up and what do you know. MORE DAMAGE than before. This is most unacceptable behaviour. Not sure if it's an insurance scam.

Phone calls, emails, and visits to collision shops ensued. Everybody wanted to replace the door panel, resulting in insane four-digit amounts. However, there was also the Dent Specialist who specializes in paintless dent removal. It's located in Beechville, a bit further west from Bayers Lake Business Park, in the back of the building that houses Popes Advanced Windows and Doors. The Dent Specialist (his name is Troy) closely cooperates with Gerry, who runs ChipsAway, a paint shop in the same location. They share their shop. After Troy had removed the dent, Gerry repainted the area. They also removed an old dent free of charge that my car already had when I bought it, near the driver's door handle. In total I paid about a quarter of what I would have paid at a collision shop, and it looks truly excellent. However, I also have a bit of criticism: Troy and Gerry need to work on their organizational skills. I had to drop off my car a total of three times -- one extra time since Troy thought he'd have enough time but didn't, and one extra time since Gerry had to fix his original paint job. That having said, their work seems to be excellent and is a great value, so if they improve their organizational skills a bit they certainly deserve five stars.
