We have actually taken 3 of our cars to Gentile's in the past month for various things. The first was to paint and install an aftermarket lip on one of our cars. The 2nd was to wet sand some areas on an older car that is going to be wrapped soon and the last was for an insurance claim to fix my husband's car that had a hit and run incident while the car was parked. We were very pleased with all of the work done and the staff was friendly too.
The cars were ready when promised and the car that had the insurance claim looks fantastic. We were so pleased. They even noticed one of the headlights on the car with the Insurance claim was "cloudy" and went above and beyond and took the time to make it look nice again. I would definitely recommend this business and bring our cars back here in the future.

I was referred by a family member to Gentille's after my car was hit from behind. From the moment I walked into office, I felt I was in good hands. Friendly, knowledgeable, professional staff and the work is impeccable! It was even ready five days early. I really liked the periodic text updates on the repair work. When I picked it up, it looked like a brand new car! They even cleaned the inside as well! Very pleased!

Needed some collision work requiring body work and painting. Mark Jr. and John were very professional, knowledgeable, and customer focused. The work work was done as scheduled, on time, and we were notified via text as the car progressed through the stages. The car looks great! I highly recommend using Gentile's.

Gentile's is my first choice in the future! Hit a turkey and called SEVERAL auto shops that would only say "at least three weeks" just to look at my car. I called Gentile's and they made an effort to understand my situation. A sense of care and urgency I had not heard with any other company. Within one hour of talking to Gentile's staff members, I was able to schedule an appointment and get a tow truck to take my car SAME DAY. I could not have been happier with Gentile's

I hit a deer on 32 Mile with the front passenger side getting the majority of the damage. After talking to several people about collision shops since I have not been to one in a long time, I called Gentile's and a very nice lady answered all of questions very professionally. I took my truck in and got an estimate. I had already contacted my insurance company. We set up a date to bring my truck in to get repaired.
I dropped it off at Gentile's at the beginning of the week. They said they would have it about a week. They had my vehicle fixed by the end of the week. It looked like it just came off the showroom floor. I was very pleased with the work that Gentile's did. The whole process would very smoothly with Gentiles handling the bulk of everything. I would definitely go back to Gentile's if I need anything else done. Hats off to them and a double thumbs up. Eugene
