Nothing but the best from these guys. I was immediately taken care of the second I walked into the shop. After seeing the rust on my rear quarter panel they gave me a very reasonable quote on how much it would be to repair and repaint that quarter panel. I also had them do a ceramic coat, as my car is a black/blue it has always been hard to keep it looking clean and un scratched. After five days of work I got my vehicle back and I couldn't believe how good it looked, the paint was a perfect match and the ceramic made the car look like glass. I was so impressed with the customer service and how

I was recently involved in an accident and am so grateful for the excellent service provided by Lore and the entire staff. I was welcomed by friendly staff at the front desk and once my keys were handed over, everything was handled professionally and efficiently from communicating with the insurance company to completing the repairs and detailing, making my car look like new. I am very impressed with Sturgeon Auto Body and highly recommend this business.

Took our Expedition in to have the normal aluminium oxidation fixed on the back hatch. Looks better than from the factory. And not to mention, a great job on the detail of the interior as well!

I was involved in a collision on February 11, 2021 - front bumper and headlamp. Excellent quality of work and a nice surprise to find the vehicle cleaned inside and out. I work in the service industry and can say their customer service is excellent including communications, responsiveness, managing expectations, and respecting my time. Thank you Alan, Lore, and Cathy.
