I was in tahoe this weekend and some *** hat rear ended me. The car seems mechanically fine but I need body work. Anyone recommend a good body shop in the Sonoma County/Marin area. Thanks.

If insurance is footing the bill, I highly recommend Gullick's Autobody in Petaluma. Top notch.

 

Yes it is! Thanks Huck. I'll give them a call tomorrow.

 

I recall there is a good autobody shop in larkfield (between windsor and sr) that does good work. They did very nice work on my mother's lexus when it got pwned a few years back. Might be worth checking if you want a second estimate, though I bow to huck's advice.

 

Do you remember if it was Larkfield Body shop or Advanced Tech? I'm probably going to get an estimate there also.

 

I'll check on the exact name, but I recall it was right accross the street from the shopping center where mulsberry market is.

 

I would try Anthonys North in Rohnert Park they have done great work on my parents cars over the years.

 

If you are willing to drive to SF, my buddy at Sunny Auto Body does great work.

I've taken 4 cars to them...

 

+1 for those guys

Anthonys is good also

 

its called larkfield body and paint. they did a great job on my car when it was parked and got hit. they replaced the driverside passenger door and the back fender and the paint job is so perfect you would never be able to tell.
+1 to them.

 

stay away from Advance tech and GNC

 

haha my bro when he first got his license had an old volvo tank, and got in an accident, he went through gnc autobody and they cut his frame for some reason to fix it and they said "we cannot fix the frame we cut" so the car is totalled, and they were not responsible based on the contract he signed with them. haha couldnt believe it. so ya +1 to staying away from gnc

 

Thanks everyone!

I know to stay away from GNC, I didn't know Advance Tech had a bad rep also. My brother went to Larkfield Auto Body and they did very good work on his car. I think I'm going to go w/ either Anthony's, Gullicks or Larkfield because it's closer to home.

 

Here's some of the body shops that do business with us on a regular basis (they use genuine parts):

Larkfield Body and Paint

Gulick's

Blake's (Santa Rosa) N. Dutton

Dibble's Collision


Not recommendations, simply observations so you know they're using OEM parts instead of the cheap stuff.
