I was rear-ended a few weeks ago and was looking for a body shop near my house. Benny's auto body was fast and responsive with my vehicle and they even helped me out when a light kept burning in the tail light. Extremely friendly and helpful throughout whole process and would recommend to anyone looking for high quality body work in a timely manner.

I was recommended this place from someone who's had previous work done. Just got my headlights buffed and shined. Large buffing equipment was used. Very very impressed with the work. Drove straight home to show my family. Got thumbs up from everyone. It gave my car the little face lift it needed. Feel more safe driving at night. Good work and money facing recommendation , highly recommend.

I have used Benny s Auto Body a few times recently and can t commend them enough! They re honest and absolutely go the extra mile to help. My experience is always wonderful with them, you almost feel like family. I took my car in today after a minor brush with a cement pillar in the parking garage. In less than 5 minutes they rubbed the white paint from the pillar off and pulled the front fender so it was even with the door. It look s perfect now. The amazing thing is, they didn t even charge me! I was so grateful not to pay my $500 insurance deductible.I love Benny s!!

First time going to Benny's auto body shop. The first day I went I was a little nervous. But senior Benny said sit down eat some food we have lots of food. It was like I'm at home. The job that they did on my car is amazing! I highly recommend them! Thank you to all the people who work so hard on my car.Service: PaintingService: Painting

Benny Senior and Jr are great people. They are honest, do great work, and are one of the few places left that don't play the insurance scam game. I will be returning here whenever I need body work and paint done to any of my cars and I will always suggest to anyone I care about that this is where to go. I went to several places for quotes and every single place had insane scam prices. They nickel and dime over the most ridiculous things...a charge for removing and reinstating a light, what???Benny's Auto Body are what body shops all used to be...honest and hard working. Take your business to Benny's to save yourself the time and headaches. Like me, you'll be glad you did.

Benny is the best; the nicest and does the work for a reasonable $ and much better quality than the authorized places for MB or Porsche. A++Kaveh

My experience at Benny's renewed my faith that there are still honest businesses that provide exceptional work at great prices. The auto body repair was done quickly and ready when Benny said the job would be completed. The work was flawless!!! This is a father/son business operated with integrity. I highly recommend them. I was totally impressed with my experience at Benny's.

I wish I did have to go to Benny's so often, but we have been there 6 times with 4 different vehicles. Everything from total loss to parking lot dings. Our vehicles turn out perfect every time. The only place I would recommend

The Benny reviews are true. All five stars and so is mine. Not much to say. I met the family. Great people. Great service. Dropped the Camry off on Friday. Done fast the next Thursday. Perfect repair. Body work on trunk lid and rear bumper, nice shiny paint all super professional. No orange peal, no overspray. Great price. Highly recommended.

I've been bringing my cars to Benny's for over 20 years; lots of cars, lots of work and lots of satisfaction. These are genuinely nice people who know what they are doing and don't overcharge for top quality work. Don't hesitate to bring your car to Benny's.

I have a strange situation as I'm not actually able to write a review based on their work, but I am able to comment on their exceptional customer service and what they would have done!I took my car here after reading amazing reviews and since my insurance never specified at the time that I would have to go to a specific place. So they gave me an awesome quote (not using insurance) and was asked to put a deposit down on the part that was needed. The quote I was given beat almost 3 other quotes from other places by $600 or more! I was in shock! I was also very tricked by insurance! When I called my insurance to inform them I found THE BEST quote and would like to go through Benny's to complete the work. They chose at that time to inform me I would have to take it to a preferred auto body shop and then I could take my insurance over to Benny's if I still wanted to do it. However, they then added they may not be able to cover the entire cost through insurance and won't guarantee it through my insurance if anything should happen after I leave. So...I was immediately afraid to go with anyone other than the preferred shop. Now I'm being tricked, but I'm also in a very tough spot. So I had to call Benny and let him know the situation. He was annoyed ( as he should be) but more for my frustration and at the deceit from insurance companies! He also understood it and best of all he not only returned my deposit, but called me to do it! I didn't have to track him down or plead and beg. He actually called me to start the return. If you are in anyway doubting this shop..don't! A good auto body place is hard to find and even more astounding when it comes with amazing customer service that I have never experienced anywhere else! I wish I could have went with these guys. I know they would have done an excellent job! They even treated me fantastic when I wasn't even a customer any longer! How many places do that!! Go to them! They are the real deal and there is a reason they are 5 stars!!! Honest, dependable, reliable, and awesome customer service!

I can t say enough goods things about benny s Auto body. Found them through good reviews online and I was impressed. Friendly, family owned company that does amazing work. My car hasn t looked this good since I bought it. They were very reasonably priced and I got my car in and out within a week. It would ve been 2 or 3 weeks at any other shop.

Benny's has dome work for me in the past so am taking another vehicle to him for repair. Adrian did a very clean job on a repair of my truck. Price was right. Hopefully this time will be the same.

My 2005 Corolla was part of a really bad hit and run in 2010 and after their work EVERYONE thought I had it fixed via the toyota dealer. This is PROFESSIONAL grade work for a great price.I've also had work done on my mother's 2003 Corolla and it has been FLAWLESS. I would call it perfection even. The car looked brand new after they were done with it.I personally know Benny and I know the work done at this shop is the product of YEARS of experience and expertise at professional dealers. I am so happy to have found this shop. They do everything from easy fixes to complete paint and body restorations and most of the stuff is covered by your vehicle's insurance. I personally recommend it.

My rare 31 year old car had it's fender totaled. Other places refused to even try the repair. Bennys worked with the insurance company and myself and repaired the car to better than before condition. You can't find a more helpful, friendly and competent body shop anywhere.
