I don't take ny cars anywhere else. Repairs are always flawless and done in a timely manner. They take care of fighting with the insurance company to get the correct settlement on the repair too, a huge time-saver for me!

This is my 2nd extremely positive experience with R&C Auto. The owner is honest, fair and kind. I will definitely recommend this shop to all my friends. I was treated incredibly fairly. Thank you for putting a smile on my face and making my car beautiful again! Service: Painting

After getting rear ended, I went to R and C for a quote and repair. They were transparent, communicative and helpful through the entire process. When it came time to do the work, they went above and beyond to have all repairs completed in only 2 days so I could get my car back as quick as possible. Car looks great and I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing body work.

This review is very long OVERDUE. The stars may read "5" but R & C Auto Rebuilders, Inc. has really earned 10-Stars for their high level of professionalism & workmanship. Carl is the most honest professional in ANY business I have ever dealt with. The repair work done by his staff is top notch and Michelle in the office is personable and courteous. I would never let anyone else work on my cars~!

I've used Carl several times and honestly would not think of letting anyone else fix my cars. Very professional, high quality work, done in a timely fashion. Their staff is excellent as well, very good follow-up and personable.

Had a great experience today. My van had front-end bumper mudguards coming out. Carl, the owner, looked at it - not only fixed it - pro bono - he suggested that I do not spend extra 100$ in replacing the part. Completely blown-away by his honesty and customer service.

Avoid, Avoid! Worst repair place we have ever been to. Spoke with Carl before we had work done on our Lexus vehicle which was slightly dented in the rear right quarter panel in June of 2015. He was not part of the USAA Insurance Company but he said not an issue in that they could send payment directly to him and he also stated he would honor their lifetime warranty. Well, 16 months later we get paint peeling off where he did the work, the rest of the vehicle is perfect.

He refused to honor the warranty as I had to show up at his shop three times in person in an attempt to get him to honor his word. His excuse is that there was rust there not seen originally and even though I was not told by him when he did the work. My insurance company said as soon as hed decided to do the work, if he saw any rust then he should be held responsible and they have no record of him identifying this on the estimate he sent them. Worst part about this is we have been using him for about 10 years with multiple cars and we have personally sent him 5 customers who had work performed by him.

I have contacted them all about this and they will no longer go back. Additionally one friend told me after Carl's company did the work on his Altima he had to go back three times as the door window kept falling off of the tract. Nice guy maybe, but does not honor his word. If you have a problem with his work he does not know you anymore. Just had my vehicle fixed by another Autobody shop who said that the work done prior was substandard and not done correctly and if there was prior rust he did a poor job. See photo of paint job done after 16 months by R&C Auto Rebuilders.

My experience at R&C started with great customer service and ended with great customer service. In between the mechanics inside the shop pulled a rabbit from their hats and fixed my car after an accident and everything looks great. The work was delivered with high quality. The owner of the shop is a good guy too.

I have known Carl for a quite a few years now. I met him through doing volunteer work in town. I have taken my cars in the past to him and by far the best service around! Professional, courteous and upfront! I sent my sister there and she was so happy she went as they were fast, honest and thorough! CARL IS THE MAN!
