I brought my vehicle here with an MPI claim. The service I received was professional, courteous and friendly. My vehicle was repaired beyond my expectations. A missing piece was found not near my damage was and they had the courtesy to call me and price it out to have it fixed. Absolutely exceptional service and good quality work. Thank you, thank you for all your work! Plus, my vehicle came out cleaner then it was when it went it!

These folks are awesome. Excellent workmanship. Great customer service. Accredited from Autopac so I was able to skip going to MPI for an estimate.

North West Auto Body is amazing. I had an MPI claim that I took there and dealt with Earl initially. He was very kind and thorough. I met Bill when I brought my car back and he is also very kind! They were quick, super friendly and they genuinely care about their customers and their work!

Staff are efficient, professional and always friendly. Can't say enough about all the staff and work done by North West Auto Body. Yes, there may be a bit of a wait at times, but If you want the job done right, it's worth the wait. There's no other place I trust to take my vehicle too. I'm so grateful and appreciate all the work North West Auto Body has done on my vehicles and my family's vehicles over the years. Thank You!
