My family has been going to George for years and have received nothing but the best. When I decided I was going to have every fender on my truck repainted I decided to bring it to George's. My truck is a 2006 Sierra 1500. Its a 2 owner truck, no accidents, and I don't drive it in the winter. One of the cleanest trucks around. I had put fender flares on the truck and they left scratches around every fender on the truck. I took it to George had them all repainted. Within 2 months I noticed the paint on both rear fenders was beginning to peel from under the lip of the fender up into the bed side. I took it back to George because I was very disappointed. He told me that this is not because of his work. He explained to me that my scratch's were only 3" up the bed side from the wheel well and he only sanded out the scratches to bare metal and then "scuffed" my existing paint and primed it all and repainted / cleared it all. He explained to me that he cannot be responsible for other peoples work. He claims that the existing paint had been tampered with and this is the reason my pain was peeling. I find it hard to believe that the factory paint is peeling off of BOTH bedsides with 0 rust or rot. I contacted the original owner and confirmed the bed was NEVER repainted. I also took the truck to other body shops to see what they said about these claims. They suggested to me that the paint is peeling due to lack of prep work. After George informed me of all of this he then quoted me another $1000 to do the job right and sand both fenders down to bare metal and repaint everything right. He told me that if they had done this the first time the cost was going to be greater and this is why it wasn't done!! I was never told any of this the first time. If I had known that he was going to cut corners and do it cheaper I would have just paid to get it done RIGHT the first time!! I wasn't looking for a cheap 2 month fix I wanted it to last the rest of my time with the truck. The truck is my baby, I have put excessive work into the truck I wasn't worried about the extra to get it done right! So in review neither myself nor my family and friends will ever be going back! When I first got my truck back it looked amazing and I was telling everyone to go to George! Now ill be posting this story and pictures to let everyone know what to expect! I will be taking my business elsewhere!!

Always wake out of George's auto knowing the problem is fixed, not band aided. While waiting you enjoy all the hospitality of home coffee, treats + conversation with Tabitha

Do yourself a favor and don t bring your vehicle here. They left numerous plastics unattached and never replaced my engine cover on my vehicle after I brought my vehicle in for an accident last February. Other bent metal parts on the nose of the vehicle and carrier above the radiator were also not replaced and just hack jobbed.They charge your insurance maximum for the minimum and most likely are recommended by the insurance companies for this reason. You will be fooled by the owners demeanor he seems like a great guy but trust me when I say it not your best interest he has in mind.Service: Body & Trim

I was involved in an accident back in February and I was extremely nervous going to a shop I've never been to before. My insurance company, Progressive had it as one of their recommended shops and after quickly reading through reviews I was okay with going to them. They gave me a date that my vehicle would be fixed by, the gentleman who I spoke with over the phone was the same one I had the pleasure to talk to in person about my car. When I got it back on the day they specified it would be fixed by, my car looked like it did when I bought it originally. They even did some quick cleaning inside and left a mat on the floor at the drivers wheel to ensure no mess was made and I greatly appreciated it. So far I have no complaints about the repairs. They were an amazing mom and pop shop and I greatly appreciate their kindness and professionalism.

I was worried about taking my car somewhere new (my previous mechanic is too far from where I live now). I was worried about if they will be honest, friendly, and charge fair prices. After reading other glowing reviews on Google, I took a chance and I am so glad I did. From my first phone call, to my first time walking in, they were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. The did work on my brakes and suspension, did the work quickly, didn't try to upsell me anything I didn't need, and charged a fair price for the work. They've definitely earned my trust and future business.

Came in to the shop through progressive auto insurance. They did exceptional body work and matched the paint perfectly despite it being a limited edition paint color (galaxy blue). Since they were working on the vehicle I asked them to also replace the wheels and I specified the tires I wanted. They only charged something like 18 per tire for mounting and balancing, which was a surprising deal (40 per tire being prettystandard). I got 4 forteras mounted and balanced for under 700 dollars. I thought the customer service was great too and they kept me updated as the work progressed. So in summary, work was exceptional and affordable.

George s did a great job on my car SAVED me over $450 !!!! Dealership wanted $600 for a small repair, georges charged me only $150 for the same repair. Tabitha was extremely helpful squeezing me in for an appt knowing I had a time constraint. Very very helpful people and the mechanics were nice also. Kudos. Def recommend.

Seemed good. Only used them to mount a front licence plate bracket to my wife's car, as we just moved back after 20 years living in other states. The guy went the extra step of putting the plates on my wifes car while we were there. Other than that. No real experience with this business yet.

They were a preferred vendor through my car insurance company (GEICO). My car came back looking better than it did brand new off the lot. The guys also washed my car and swept the inside floor mats before handing it over to me. The small touches like that go a long way. Would highly recommend.

My husbands car had a water leak for months. Chevy dealership NEVER found the leak and wanted us to pay 3 hours MORE of diagnostic to find the leak. ($125 an hour). We decided to leave it alone and called George. Best decision EVER. They found it in 1 hour and only charged $60. Thank you George. Priscilla & Angel Chevy Malibu

I will always bring my car to George's. A tree branch smashed my window out in a storm. The car was covered the following day, but due to some insurance related issues it sat waiting to be fixed for about a week. The rain caused mold to develope all over the interior. George's replaced all the seats and carpets in the car and did an amazing job the car looks brand new and I couldn't be happier

My car was literally backed into in another repair facility and I was not informed about it and my antique suffered a dented in Grill and I could not open up my hood ... All they charged me for at George's was for labor and it opens and closes like it originally did... I am so happy that I live just walking distance from them

George's is a very Busy shop but the reason he is busy is the good work he puts into each car in the shop . I took my car in for vandalism and George took care of my car and made it into a brand new showroom vehicle one again

Always does the work right and doesn't overcharge. I can't recommend this business highly enough - I'll never take my car anywhere else.
