This place is terrible. 3 tries to fix my company car. The fleet manager chose the shop, I would never bring a personal car here. First 2 times fixing a door ding and couldn t get the paint right on the drivers door and there were visible blend lines, first time you could still see the ding. They nailed my company for the 3rd try by selling them a new door skin. Picked it up today and due to the rain can t evaluate the paint but they did more damage than they fixed. Pics attached. Check out how they left the drivers mirror, compare it to the passenger side mirror. Grease on both seats, damaged the molding, ding on the new skin, interior was filthy and scratched the heck out of the door molding in multiple places. I hope my company sues them and has a real body shop do the repairs.Service: Painting

Pleasantly surprised with the results. I went for the one step urethane and integrated clear coat in one which was the middle of the road paint job. Came out very glossy and you can see the pearl specs. I was expecting it to come out much more flat and dull for the price point. Everyone I dealt with at the Perth Amboy location was very friendly and professional. It did take a few more days for them to finish than I was originally told but for me this was not a big deal since the car was not my daily driver. It is now :)

I took two cars here. Drips on my one car. I work don t have time or money to spend another two weeks for painting so I ll take the loss they weren t horrible anyway even if I didn t pay for the drip marks. Second car paid for new replacement parts. Turns out they bondo and stapled my old parts together then just painted over them. starting to see cracks forming. Why try and get over on people? Keep my vehicle extra long telling me you guys are waiting for parts and then I find this out? Shame on this place. Wanted something nice let smiles and reassurances from this place blind me. That s what I get for going the cheap route.

I have never left a bad review for a business, so this is saying a lot. I brought my truck to have body work and paint done April 29th. I was told 5-6 days to receive it back finished. I received a call a MONTH later saying the truck is finished I pull in the lot and the truck is painted but no body work was done. The jambs mirrors and front bumper were not painted which was supposed to be done. So now they say they re gonna fix it and have it back in a week. A week later the truck is finished again. I go to the shop. The truck looks better but still not very happy with the work. There s a lot of imperfections and parts of the body that should have gotten body work but didn t. Mind you I didn t opt for the cheapest package they have. On top of all that, the battery died in the shop from having the doors open so long they tried to jump start it and hooked the cables up backwards and blew my alternator fuse. They also cracked my dashboard somehow. Now here s the best part, after all the trouble I went though I didn t even get offered a discount on the work. I m disgusted with this place and don t even know how they re in business. Save your money go elsewhereServices: Painting, Body & Trim

Fair price compared to others. Honda pilot roof was painted . Time will tell how long it will hold.However , they didn t wash the full car which was a disappointment specially when residue from masking tape was still there.

Very professional and they work with you. I wish I had before and after pictures, but take my word. They did a incredible job repairing damage to my front bumper. You can't even tell. I plan to return to them to have my car touched up with a fresh paint job. $700+ and change, it was worth it. Services: Painting, Body & TrimServices: Painting, Body & Trim

I took my 2019 Toyota RAV4 for some body repairs. I am super happy that they made my car look like the accident never happened. The manager and the office staff were very helpful and professional. I would definitely bring my car back here if anything else needs to be repaired and would recommend this body shop to my family and friends. I am also satisfied with the price they gave me, it was much cheaper than other body shops. Thank you so much for making my car look brand new!Services: Painting, Body & Trim

I have been using Maaco for some years now. A friend of mine owned the Maaco and I used his services regularly until he permanently shut down the business. I searched for another location and came across this one. The experience was very positive. The manager, Raph runs a tight ship. He was very friendly and the work looks great. They did a great job color matching and blending.I would recommend and will use again as needed.Tom A.

I bring my car to start getting the work it badly needs. There costs we're very fair. The agents we're very honest and knowledgeable. I only have pics after I was hit. I don't mind posting before and after. On star ratings. I think it's fair to only rate on there experience, there prices for now until my car is finished.

I've been going to maaco for years. They have worked and painted 3 of my cars and it's always what i expect or better. Melissa at the maaco in woodbridge/perth amboy was super helpful and she made me comfortable with what they were going to do. The job was exceptional and I loved it like I always have. Highly recommended for anyone who needs body work or paint done on their car.Services: Painting, Body & Trim

My mechanics recommended this place to me. But I went to other body shop to estimate cost first, then came to Maaco. I found out this shop's estimate is almost half price of the others. I also saw they have lots of business. So I decide to use this Maaco. In 2 days they finished the repair which the other shop needs 6 days. The job is well done. I am very happy.

I was extremely relieved with the way the staff dealt with my situation.I haven't had the need for collision repair in a long while.Mohammad was thorough with his estimate, without trying to make other repairs on this 2004 Jetta. He made me feel comfortable about my decision to go with Maaco.Raphael was the person I dealt with for scheduling and pickup...WHAT A PLEASURE. He was outside washing the vehicle and waiting for my arrival.They made an annoying situation as pleasurable as possible.Thank you for a great job!

They told me my parts would be in in a few days. Boy we re they wrong. They came in the next day and did the work the day after. I always use them for all of my auto body needs and they have never let me down. I will recommend them to anyone I know!Service: Body & TrimService: Body & Trim

Ruined my BRAND NEW 2022 BMW X5.Raza is extremely rude. Doesn t care about anything as long as he get your money.One door on my car is painted a whole different color.READ OTHER REVIEWS & look at Yelp photos, you ll see what I mean. Take your car to another body shop; this place will cost you more to fix it afterwards.Service: Painting

Im happy with the repairs done on my vehicle, Marco did a great Job. However, the per sonat the front desk, Rafael, was extremely rude. He has zero customer service skills. He never offered us to take a seat, he didnt e ven acknowledge our presence...another worker had to point out that we had waited a while. He made rude comments about other workers, and when i expressed how concerned we were about being carless for a few days, he said that wasnt his problem. He has ver y unprofessional to say the least.

First of all, the positive reviews are usually short. But the negatives are extremely long and once you read them you can read thru the lines. I had a good experience not perfect but the price was extremely good. Like the one comment half the price of the competitors. I will always use them and hopefully all the other Maaco's are the same. I was promised a certain time but they really accommodated my time.They were great with following up and you have to understand that a busy shop is going to have some time restrains but the overall experience was good.

I am absolutely furious with this establishment. I brought my other car here without fail many years ago this is why I was a returned customer. However, recently I was involved in a hit an run in which my passenger side mirror was broken. This particular mirror has a camera attached to it. I received a quote from Maaco and proceeded. This is where they deceived me. They replaced the mirror, however the failed to tell me they did not have the equipment to calibrate my camera. When I picked up the car they advised me to go toHonda to have them calibrate it! Honda charges a minimal of 300 dollars to calibrate mirrors. As Maaco promote themselves as professional- why would they fail to give me this information. I do not feel I should pay the full amount considering half of the work was done. This is the Perth Amboy, NJ location.

My experiences with Raphael was phenomenal he was so accommodating with the time and the price I'm so please with the work especially the price lol. Explain everything to me step-by-step And even though I didn't understand much about cars and the body work that my car needed he made sure that I left there comfortably and that I understood before I lefted. Thanks again for your kindness Sincerely A VERY PROUD CUSTOMER (Perth Amboy location)Service: Body & Trim

I would highly recommend this place. My car s front bumper, headlights and fender was damaged real bad and Raphael was the person to fix it. He gave me a good value and my car was fixed in time and provided me with a good service.Services: Painting, Body & TrimServices: Painting, Body & Trim

I came here for a comparison estimate. It was decent, but too much going on outside, guys moving cars around, it looked like chaos. One of the workers was giving me dirty looks when I arrived, why? I chose to go to a different place, not impressed.

I took my 2011 Mazda CX-9 for a refresh and clean up of a couple of dings. Mohammed provided several affordable options based on my needs. I was very satisfied with the results and price. My car looks brand new.

There was a scratch on the liftgate of my CX-5 that I wanted to repair before my lease ended.Maaco did a great job for a very reasonable price. They also finished the job faster than the estimated timeframe. Would definitely recommend.

Do not bring your car to this location for paint service! This place is a complete scam. If it were possible to give 0 stars I would. Took our vehicle here for a full paint service, was talked into replacing 2 'rusted' doors only to have a rusted door put back on, not to mention the paint job had to be done twice because the first time was so terribly incomplete. The second time took over 2 weeks! Our vehicle currently has bubbles/rusting due to the bad job done AND instead of making it right and providing the services that have already been paid for, Rafael seems to think they can charge us for labor, to fix their bad paint job & rusted door that was supposed to be done initially. I think not. I will advise every single person I know and/or encounter that MAACO Perth Amboy is only out for your money, no quality work will be done here!

I had a simple task needed to be painted by Maaco. There were three parts that I mistakenly damaged while reassembling my classic car. Each part had scratches / dings / existing paint that needed to be corrected prior to painting.They did match the color fairly close to the original color (most shops blend their own paints) but what they botched several times is what's disappointing.There were visually obvious runs from the lacquer or clear coat that I had to tell them to fix. At first I thought 'meeeh it's ok' everyone makes mistakes. This turned into several more mistakes. They either didn't clear correctly, buff out the original problem correctly, etc. It was a real pain!In the end I had to return to their shop 5 times to paint a gas lid cover (roughly 6" x 8"), a lower valance, and upper cowl for my classic car.I dealt mostly with Rafael. He does not review his work or his workers' work. What should have been a simple job turned into a waste of resources.Be prepared for his excuses, delays, and to chase him down to return your calls.
