Don't do anything here!!! They are not professionals. I came to this company because I had a wonderful experience painting parts in Maaco in East Brunswick but they are currently closed for renovations. I came here by car and gave them the removed door and could have left the car, but they said that they had the paint number. After painting the door, I installed it on the car and saw a completely different color. I went to see them and the man working said that it needed to be repainted but his boss came out and said that it was 100% the same color and said that it was cheap paint and that s how it should be. Your company painted the door instead of the color 8v5 to the color 8y5 and said that it was the same color and you took the money and apologized? How can I drive with this color? I could use it without your painting, it s still a completely different color...

Rey and his team did an amazing job!Gave me a quote; I couldn't beat the price with warranty + the paint quality. Yes, I could've went cheaper on the paint quality, but I am so glad I took Rey's suggestion and going with his package (Urethane + IC). Any and all other shops were easily $1,000-$2,000 over this quote w/o the paint quality in the mix.I had some rust cut and welded a new sheet of metal, new bumper with fog light bulbs installed, a lot of dents and some weird glue on top of the window (probably for visors?).The Paint on this Subaru Forester looks amazing even Rey was like "I can't believe this OEM paint looks so pearly and gives the car 3 different colors depending on the viewing angle". Honestly, I feel like I came up winning with this job not an ounce of regret and know I got more than what I paid for.All I can say is if your car is in desperate need of a paint job; don't be afraid to go to Rey and his team @ Maaco. I honestly, had a great experience and the turnaround time was 5 Business Days!Services: Painting, Body & Trim, Welding

Awesome experience. I went in asked for a quote for their best package and were super transparent with all the fees. The paint job only took 2 weeks witch is extremely quick for the amount of dents and peeling the car had. The car looks brand new now, all the jambs and parts you can't see were painted as well. I will definitely come here again when my other cars need paint.

Such a great experience here. Everyone was so helpful and now my car looks BRAND NEW! I had some rust spots on the hood and a 4 inch gash in the bumper that was taken care of promptly and professionally. I was concerned about paint matching as my Grand Cherokee paint has a little glittery sparkle to it, but you can t even guess where the blemishes were. Not even a slight discoloration, everything looks so smooth. I m telling you this is the place to go! VERY good pricing for quality of work that I received. I would highly recommend this location for all of your body work needs.

The paint job was very good on a 23 year old car. They patched the rust and fixed the molding. The car looks like brand new. Very happy with the paint job.

I was on a deep search for Honda Certified shops that can repaint my car but everything was unrealistically expensive. Then I stumbled across a Maaco ad. Saw all the glowing reviews with amazing pricing on paint, sealer and other protective coatings.Overall, I'm very satisfied with the quality, pricing and service. They matched the color and texture of my OEM 2007 Honda Civic Ex paint color perfectly! I couldn't have imagined getting my car completely repainted for less than $1500!! That's insane!Give them a chance! You won't regret it, and if there are any issues you have a warranty.

I had picked up my car from the Maaco shop and upon a more thorough inspection, I had noticed some issues and details that were missed.1. I was missing the antenna for my radio. Wasnt anywhere in the vehicle2. The side molding that runs across my doors was silver before and are were just painted over grey. The silver should have been the same as the molding from my bumper.3. The rubber door seal for my right rear door was sticking out and can not be pushed back in4. There was dust all in the inside of the car (trunk included) in which I had to wipe down before entering and then once more when I got home5. There were plastic pieces left on the rear floor of which I'm not sure where they came from and hopefully not going to negatively affect my vehicleWhile I am impressed with the overall work and repairs completed, and despite the setbacks from have happened to the shop (flooding and fire), these missed details could of been as voided. I have taken pictures for proof.

Came to get a quote on my 1990 classic olds cutlass supreme and Rey came right out and did it immediately. He explained the different types and levels of paint that was offered and helped me pick what was right for me. I also needed side mirrors replaced and he ordered them. Had everything done in a week. Will be bringing my next car there this week. Pictures show deep scratches on the car door before the paint and repair and after. Looks like a new car not a 33 year old car.Service: Painting

My husband surprised me by finally having my car in need of a long body work treatment, after being worn out terribly with hits and scratches.I was skeptical in fixing my car and was ready to get a replacement . When I saw my car after it was sprayed and fixed I was completely shocked on how well it was done. I did not recognized my car at all!! I walked right pass my car and thought it was someone else s car . They did a remarkable job in transforming my car . I love my car all over again . It went from rags to riches . Unfortunately I don t have before and after picture to show how incredible it looks. I highly recommend their work. They are professional and and work on a timely manner. You will not be disappointed .Andy

They did a beautiful job at price no one could beat. I trusted them with a luxury car and they rose to the occasion. They're not just a shop for a good value on your average cars -- they are car guys who take pride in their work, capable of doing premium work, and they aim to please. Painting can take while and they're a busy shop. I would caution people to have managed expectations -- full premium painting could mean going without your car for a month or more. Ultimately, for me, it was well worth it. They are nice guys in an industry full of prickly personalities. They'll be the first place I go for painting and body work in the future.Services: Painting, Body & Trim

I'm happy with the work performed on my car. I was skeptical about getting my car painted, but the manager Rey at the Linden location put me at ease. He explained everything thoroughly about the process, and how to care for my car afterwards. Also I got my car back in a weeks time just like he stated. The workers and managers are skillful at what they do. I am so happy I decided to bring my car to this location.

Worst body work I ve ever witnessed. They messed up my body work done on my SUV. Paint had contamination and dust. Wouldn t fix it. Delayed the estimated time by several days. When confronted about it tiny manager name MARK will show you attitude and tell you to go home in a very threatening manner.All of the employees there are very very UNPROFESSIONAL, RUDE, and UNETHICAL. I will leave several complaints with corporate management. This place needs to be closed.Nearby reputable body shops laughed at their messy work and paint job and told me to take Maaco to court.

Great job by these masters! I had a pretty nasty scratch from someone who had obviously lost their mind and decided to key the left passenger door of my 2015 VW Jetta while I lived in NYC. Thankfully (after getting quotes well over $1,000 from other body shops) I found Mark and the rest of the team at Maaco in Linden. They gave me a great deal for a decent size job that was finished in four days. When I picked up my car they offered me $50 off any future work. Very satisfied and grateful. Thank you guys!

My family has long been using Linden Maaco Auto Body. This is my first experience with them. From the minute I brought the car in for an estimate, I was confident of their service. We discussed different options for the repair which were cost effective, as well as their honest opinion. They gave me a very fare price & time necessary for the job. They kept me abreast of the progress & attained my approval for any additional work needed.Everyone was professional, courteous, easy to work with, adaptable, accommodating & just overall very nice.The car came back in great condition.What's a little dust considering the work that was done that a cloth can't clean up easily & is a very minor thing to complain about as someone had done previously.I am very pleased with the overall repairs.The paint job matched perfectly !!!Thank you MAACO.I highly recommend them.Service: Body & Trim

Marc and his team were great. I drove all the way from Brooklyn for a bumper repair and paint job. The results were worth it it was amazing work! Hopefully, I won t have to come back anytime soon. But, if I do, I know where I am going. All smiles over here!

This was my first experience with a body shop because I ve never been in an accident or have had someone hit my car while I was literally sitting in it but as stressful and annoying as that was they made it simple and easy. Mark made the car look like nothing ever happened to it. He was friendly and very down to earth. He also finished the work in a day and that meant a lot because God knows I need my car!! Wouldn t go anywhere else for work if needed in the future. Don t think they ll ever be another place like this.

My car looks absolutely amazing! My car was previously keyed and you can t even tell there was any damage. They even fixed the rubber seal, that became unsealed, in my car door without me asking. Great customer service and quotes .Services: Painting, Body & TrimServices: Painting, Body & Trim

So I went in because I replaced the passenger side mirror of my car and I only needed that painted. I went to numerous locations and companies for an estimate of the price to paint my mirror and then I also asked how much the price would be to paint my chipped hood and my passenger door where the clear coat was coming off in numerous sections. All of these locations quoted me at least $1200 to do just my hood and my passenger door. These prices were a bit much to me, but I kept searching around and I went to the macco location in Linden. They quoted me $976 for the whole car that was such a bargain that I decided to do it. My car is a 2008 Nissan Sentra. My car is in fairly good condition. However, the paint job was a bit faded, and I had scratches all over the car from past owners, and you can tell that it s an old car. When I got my car back from maaco, it looked brand new. I no longer felt self-conscious driving it around. Who knew just a simple paint job would make such a difference?Service: Painting

My experience here was nothing more than EXCEPTIONAL!! I purchased a car from Carvana and they had to replace the piece. From the moment my daughter went in to find out how we needed to handle it until today when the Maaco crew replaced it!!! Thanks guys, you made this experience a great one! I will be back should I have any other car needs.

I came here about two months ago to get my car painted and body work done on my WHOLE car. They painted my car without fixing the dents and parts of the body. Also, they did not paint parts near my window. They stated it was NOT on my estimate. Which is funny because I did not create it. I paid $1300+. I went back to so they can fix the missed dents and body work. I was told by one rep that it would a simple day's repair. When I went back today, a different rep completed an estimate for this repair and it came to $1700+.They also estimated a replacement side mirror for 500+. Mind you, a painted side mirror costs $98.00 on eBay. I went to a dent repair shop to fix the dents and body work. I ended up paying $698.00.Get a second opinion before you get scammed!!!!!Response to Owner: Why would I want to get my whole car painted twice within a two month period? You tried and failed. Mind u, I worked at an auto repair shop this past summer. That is how I know about parts...which they get from seized cars from the junk yard. What do you have to say about charging me 5x the amount??? Mind you, I asked for an estimate just to test your character. Failed again!! ShameServices: Painting, Body & Trim
