Kathy and Abe from start to finish were pretty impressive, very honest. They painted my new super snake hood and it came out impressive and superseded my expectations. They had to re-key my truck , and the key people delayed the key and Abe put my truck inside so it wouldn t get vandalized , the tow truck damaged a tow hook from lifting it in the rear , and he called me himself and told me it was damaged in the process of keeping my truck safe. This is stand up, had it been another company , and it s happened before , they usually don t care or let you know. I would have never noticed it until weeks later and wondered how it happened. Point is they go above and beyond , and are HONEST. They made it right and I will use them and recommend them for all my auto paint and body needs in the future.

Abe's did an outstanding job on our wrecked Quest. Kathy did her best to keep the costs down. She was very friendly and helpful. They got the job done in less time than estimated and under the dollar estimate. Can't beat that!Services: Painting, Body & TrimServices: Painting, Body & Trim

My car window would not roll back up and it is HOT! I called them at 9, they were able to get me in at 11 and by 12 I was driving away with my window up and part ordered! There is a sweetheart who works at the front desk, didn t catch her name but really liked her. The owner Abe was very knowledgeable and explained what was wrong and showed me everything which I really appreciated. I also feel the prices were very reasonable. Highly recommend!!

I love these people. They did an excellent job on my little Kia Soul. My husband used to own a paint & body shop in Austin so I figured he would surely find something wrong with the paint job, but even he was extremely impressed. Added bonus, Kathy (the receptionist) is such a sweetheart.

We had our suv repainted in areas where the paint came off and areas where the paint had oxidized. They did a fabulous job. It looks like new again. As we picked that vehicle, we decided to drop off another one to get the bumper fixed up and painted plus, get the rocker panel reattached. They are very nice, friendly and have good prices. They have been in Universal City for many years but, this is this first time we've needed any work of this type done. The quality is superb. Friends of mine have also had their vehicles fully repainted. We are beyond satisfied customer. I rate them from 1-10, I give them a 100. Thank you Abe's for great service and beautiful work on our cars!!

I am thrilled with my experience at Abe's. The woman who works the front counter, Kathy, is a sweetheart. She worked so hard to get me an affordable price. Dealing with her was like working with an old friend.I had brought in a car that my daughter wrecked and was paying out of pocket, so I wanted the repairs to be as inexpensive as possible. She gave me two quotes, one best case and one worst case scenario.The final bill came in under the best case scenario. They didn't do extra work because they could or to drive up the bill. They cared about me as a customer and did what was best for me. Honesty of this caliber is hard to find in the automotive repair industry. I hope to never need their services again, but if I do, I will ABSOLUTELY go to Abe's again.Service: Body & Trim

Stopped in today to get an estimate to repair a "chipped" area on my rear driver side door that was caused by my son. I was helped by Miss Kathy who was very kind and took the time to walk me through the estimate/painting process. I couldn't be happier with the quote and I can't wait to see the finished product when they are done. I appreciate the honestly and fairness from the onset and will recommend this shop to anyone I know looking for this sort of work done by great people at a more than fair price. VETERAN FRIENDLY AS WELL!

I had vehicles worked on with minor imperfections and they did a good job. I took my son s truck and my truck for a full paint job. At first glance they did a good job but after washing and detailing our trucks we saw where they cut several corner. Broken pieces being held by double sided tape, they painted over rubber trim, the roof began to fade after two years so I took it to get repainted and was told they only used one coat of paint and clear and that is why it faded so quick. I didn t take my truck back because I lost all trust in them. What else will they do yo my truck once it is out of my sight. Took my business to another paint and body shop. So disappointed with Abe s paint and body. A one star rating is too generous.Service: Painting

I went to get a estimate on my vehicle and was very impressed with the service. Kathy was professional on the estimate and wasn t scared to get her hands dirty while checking the damage on my vehicle. I would recommend to take your vehicle to Abe s Body and paint for your vehicle body repairs and estimates. They are trustworthy and reliable.

I am so happy to have gone here to get my car fixed! I got into a little fender bender at the beginning of May and finally had a chance to take my car to get fixed. As soon as I for there, the took a look at my car, explained they type of damage and gave me a free quote, which was about 200 dollars less than my insurance quoted me. Based on how nice, professional and knowledgeable they were, I decided to go ahead and get it fixed by them. The repair only took 2� days to do (initially it was just 1, but the next day, a representative called me and let me know know that it would take a couple more days (which I appreciate because they were being thorough). Finally, I went to pick my car up, and it looks great! They replaced the bumper and repainted it, and included a complementary wash. And the job included a lifetime warranty on the paint. I can't express how appreciative I am to this business. I highly recommend it.

Great service. Brought my car in and they right away helped me. The lady said it would cost $72 an hour! The guy got my car fixed less than a hour and he did a great job. I have continued to visit this body shop and every time I go in they remember me and ready to help me. If I could give more than 3 stars I would.

Abe fixed my son s suv. Had a leak in the roof. The insurance based collision repair shop wanted to replace the entire roof. Abe was able to fix it for much less.

In November of 2016, I traveled the Alaska Highway and took on several large rock chips, a cracked bumper, fog light and windshield damage. I took my car into Abe s January 24, 2017 after several great reviews. Between this time and March 3rd, I had never once been called or updated on my car status. I had to call for any information. A lightning strike had shorted out their paint booth, pushing work behind. I understand this, but would never have known if I didnt call.As previously stated, I picked up my car on March 3rd. I would have picked it up on the 2nd however, when I was told it was ready for pick-up, I drove the hour to Abe s and the headlights, taillights, bumpers and body panels weren t even attached yet, nor had any of the polishing on the body panels. Therefore, I had to turn around, drive another hour and go home, then come back on the 3rd to pick it up. At this time, I began to look over the car. I addressed several flaws and issues, one of them being the headlights. They were not able to be repaired. I had no knowledge of this prior to coming to pick up my car and they had not talked to the insurance company to supplement new headlights. Instead, there was now clear coat peeling from my headlights. Either way, we got them to open a supplement and I took the car home to being told to Take it home, go over it, find all the mistakes and when the headlights come in, bring it back and we will tackle it all together. Other problems were as follows:- Large areas of orange peel on all 4 doors.- Random paint burns below the clear.- Swirl marks in hood scoop.- Broken roof trim pieces, no clear surrounding the channels in the roof- Radio antenna not connected to radio after removal for paint.- Door edge guards fell off on the highway the day after.- Exterior window trim has overspray from the base coat on it.- Most of the weather stripping has base coat paint on it and is no longer black.- Fender arches has large areas of paint that are flaking off.- Hood has large paint bubble in front.- Paint repair in rear above tail light was not buffed and repainted they just threw new paint and clear over the rust.- Under hood heatshield fabric was never reinstalled, hood scoop fasteners are not inserted into the hood scoop underneath.- The radio antenna was not screwed in either, thus causing my rear seats and trunk to fill with rain water.- Front Bumper inserts not painted, side insert is broken.- And finally, a huge eyelash in clear on roof along with destroyed basecoat under clear near said eyelash.I brought it back on April 10th, after I had to call several times to get an update on the headlights so that I could bring it back to them to fix all these issues. I was assured that it would be repaired quickly and correctly, and would be put at the front of the line. I was even told by a member of their staff, after pointing out all the flaws, Welcome to Maaco. It has been two weeks and they have yet to start on my car. Every time I call to get an update, I use a different phone. I tend to have better luck calling from numbers that are not mine. In the rare instance that I do get through, I am either put on hold for extended periods of time and then hung up on (today for example,) or I am fed lies from members of the staff. What I mean by lies is that I have called and been told that the car was being worked on, yet when I show up in person several days later, it hadn t even been started on. Meanwhile, I am without a vehicle because they refuse to pay for a rental stating, The insurance needs to pay for your rental. The insurance did pay for a rental the first time I dropped off the car. This is fixing inferior quality work and does not rest on the wallet of the insurance company. Even at that, I didn t have a rental for the entire time I had the car in for service because it took over a month for them to finish the poor work. I have had a disgusting feeling in my stomach working with this company. I would be happy to update this should the work be completed to standard in a timely manner.

Had my wife s 2014 Prius worked on. Quality work done at a reasonable price. The only other estimate I got was over 3 times what I ended up paying at Abes. Highly recommend.

I Had a wonderful experience with abes paint an body shop he was very honest professional an most of all thorough. I got the biggest bang for my buck an he kept me updated. He answered all my questions in a way that i could understand. I would highly recommend him and his employees. This is the only body shop i will go to.

I could write an essay about this place and their short comings. From having my vehicle a month longer than quoted to putting the car back together wrong. Overspray all over, broke one of my headlights, painted rubber pieces that weren't supposed to be painted, lost door trim from incorrect installation, and they gave my car back with a flat tire from a nail in work area.To add insult, the owner tried to bully me into paying for my own rental car when I dropped my car off to have all of the discrepancies fixed.There's plenty of body shops out there that will do an honest job. This isn't one of them.
