Took our teenage driving car (its shared) here to get a bumper reattached that one of our teens had dragged over a cement parking block one too many times. We got it zip tied pretty securely but wanted a proper fix, so Artiagas is where we came for a same day quote. I called ahead. The guy who helped us was quick and efficient and friendly. They ended up being booked out the whole following week, so we scheduled for the following Monday (so about a week and a day). I didnt mind because of the friendly service, the quote seemingly reasonable, and the car still being drivable in the mean time. We dropped the car off in the AM Monday and had it back Tuesday late afternoon. There was a short delay due to waiting on a part I guess! The car was fixed beautifully (well, as beautiful as a non replaced reattached bumper on an old teenage car can be...) and the quote was right on target with what we ended up having to pay. Super professional and reasonable. Would definitely recommend you take your car here for body work! read more

Quick Summary It always sucks to get into a car accident, but Artiaga's made the process a lot better with consistent communication. Service- 5 stars Reuben assisted me throughout the process. He would answer all my questions and respond back to me in less than 1 hour for every message I would send him. He was honest and detail-oriented throughout the entire process Communication- 5 stars A huge thumbs up for Reuben for keeping constant communication throughout the process. It started from getting a rough estimate over Yelp message before bringing my car in, and responding to me promptly throughout the process. To be fair, you have to be proactive and send a message to him first; I get that he's too busy to update everyone on their car's status. However, if you reach out and send a message, he usually got back to me quickly (even during after-hours). Easy modes of communication as well, as Reuben was flexible with communicating through Yelp messages, text messages, and calls. Bottom Line Reuben does good work and always keeps you in the loop with your car repairs (just make sure you are the one initiating the message). In a world where no one calls anyone anymore, I love how Reuben stayed in constant communication through text or Yelp messages. read more

I would have LOVED to done business with them. I put out a quote request for my door panel and the owner was quick to respond. I was super excited. Then I decided to stop by so they can actually look at the vehicle to give a proper quote. He took my name, number, VIN, etc. He said he would call in a couple of days and nothing. I called and left a message and nothing. Ugh ok...I was ready to give you my business but no follow up. Just disappointment... read more

I just found out that there are some auto body shops that do NOT paint total cars. This is a Collision Center ,it dose not paint whole vehicles. They took the time to explain this so .I can't rate them on quality. But they were friendly and courteous. read more

I had to get my car repaired after being rear ended. I chose Artiaga's Body shop and couldn't be happier with the repairs to my car! Ruben was so professional and honest. Thank you!! read more

If I could give Artiaga's 10 stars I would in a heartbeat. I had a fender bender back in 2019, it resulted in more damage to my car than it appeared. I took my car in and when I picked it up, it looked brand new. I love that the team at Artiaga's matched my paint perfectly, you can't even tell it was ever hit! My car was done in little over a week, which given the damage, I felt was reasonable. But more importantly... my car was done right! You pay for what you get, so if you are looking for a cheap, quick fix, this isn't your place. BUT if you ARE looking for a place that does long lasting, QUALITY work, for a reasonable rate, with people you can TRUST, then call Rueben and his team! In the end, it's so important to me that I don't have to waste time going elsewhere, I can trust the team at Artiaga's, I can refer with ease, knowing that people will leave satisfied. As long as Rueben and his team are doing the good work of erasing other's mistakes, this is where I'll going! read more

I've had to use their services twice now and if I am unfortunate enough to need a body shop again, I will definitely use Artiaga's. The customer service is great and they do fantastic work. read more

We live in a gated community and when I was exiting the gate closed on my car. I took it to Artiaga's who repaired it in a day and a half and you could not tell it had ever happened. The first indication that this shop does it right is that the office and the repair garage are spotless. That is definitely a sign that they pay attention to detail. Both Rubens and Chuck are very friendly and treat you with respect. I definitely recommend them. read more

Honest and Fair. What more could you ask for, from a family owned business. I know of at least 10 people in our networking group, that has used this shop. All comments are positive and some say the vehicle came out looking better than ever. If I ever need their services.. I will not hesitate to give them a call. read more

I checks the edges around the fitment of the bumper and you honestly can't tell. I thought there would be a some overspray somewhere..... but nope! They matched the paint perfectly too! I'm definitely coming back to get more work done if i ever need it again! They seem very detail oriented when it comes to body work, which is a dream for every guy/girl who loves there car and can be a bit OCD when it comes to there personal vehicle. read more

My car had some pretty deep scratches on the right side of my bumper as well as on the underside of the bumper. I had been avoiding getting the paint fixed simply because it seemed like a hassle. Over a year later, I finally decided to get it fixed and checked out Artiaga's Collision based on the great reviews they have. I am so glad that I did. The whole process from setting up the appointment to picking up my car was so fast and easy. They have great customer service and best of all, my bumper is looking brand new again! Very, very pleased with the service. read more

I used Artiaga's for the bodywork on my Mercedes after getting hit by a hydroplaning truck. I experienced excellent customer service and my car looks amazing. They were even able to fix one of my wheels which had a huge deep scratch in it which saved me about $700.00 because I did not have to replace it. I highly recommend Artiaga's for bodywork services. read more

What an incredible blessing it was to find these guys after my step-son had an accident on the I-5 near Bakersfield. We live in San Jose so finding a shop we could trust was huge. From the very get-go Reuben and his team exhibited confidence and professionalism. They even went out of the way to take receipt of the vehicle under unusual circumstances. It's a long story, but my insurance company was being difficult and didn't want to tow the car the extra 3 miles (outside of the 20 mile radius) but Artiagas was like, "we got this"! They picked the car up, communicated with me clearly throughout the insurance debacle, kept me updated during the rebuild, they took special notice of the distance I had to travel to pick up the vehicle (over 200 miles) and took extra measures to make sure the work was 100% on point. They test drove the vehicle and reviewed their work to make sure it was all good. They also reassured me that the damage was purely cosmetic and that no mechanical issues were found. Reuben was extra helpful with pickup logistics as well, since I had to do it on the weekend. When I got to their shop, I was immediately impressed by the immaculate grounds surrounding the shop. The car was prepped for me, clean inside and out and quite frankly, it was like the car just coming off the dealer lot for a second time. Just beautiful work done on the car and the customer service was high-touch from start-to-finish! I highly recommend them for any auto body collision repair work. They really turned a stressful situation into a cake walk for us. 5 Stars all day!! I wish they were in San Jose!! read more

The clear coat/paint on the fin of my 2010 Honda Accord started to peel.. I called around a few places and got some quotes. Ended up going with Artiagas and I am SO GLAD I DID!!

SO happy!!! Our garage door had come down on our BRAND NEW CAR and left two vertical gashes on the top of our car. We took it to Artiaga's Collision Center and Reuben was so incredibly nice. A couple days later it's finished and looks brand new again!! Not to mention we had received quotes from two other places and Artiaga's was the most affordable. When I got home to show my husband and as we're looking at the car, we noticed some cuts on the bumper that we had never seen before, so we call Artiaga's back and he says to bring it back in. They went ahead and fixed the bumber in just one day!! This is what customer service is all about - our many many thanks and appreciation! read more

Went in to obtain an estimate to repaint a bumper for a 2004 Toyota Corolla. Owner came out looked at my car and quoted me $600.00 and said it would take a week to repaint. Seemed a bit high for one bumper but I guess inflation strikes again. read more

Horrible experience here, said they would repair a crack in my bmw e46 chassis and reinforce it with a kit I brought them, after 10 months of poor communication they slapped a part on it I had to supply them with because they can't get parts obviously either and call me and say it's done! We'll my parts were still sitting in the front seat never said they wouldn't be doing it to me they outsourced the little bit of work that was done to another shop and never told me they were doing that, the car rotted and in their yard and is in worse shape than I brought it, the paint is all faded now the trim and worst of all they left the back window down in the rain and when I pull the back seat up it was covered in nasty mold!!! They were very unprofessional fed us lies the whole time we should've jus pulled the car out and went to a real shop that is capable of more than fixing little scratches, I feel totally scammed by artiagas and now I'm still in the same boat a year later and they still took my $1000 without telling me half of the job wasn't completed at all I am totally furious and would never let this shop even look at another one of my cars ever ever again read more

Absolutely loved this repair shop, will definitely be coming here when my car needs. Ruben was very nice and attentive! Great work, great customer service. read more

Please read all the way to the end...there is an update..... I really like Ruben--seems like a good guy. However, one of the most frustrating things for me is when you trust someone with your business and they don't keep you informed of progress. A phone call or two from the shop to let you know when you can expect your vehicle to be completed is a must if you pride yourself on customer service. This did not happen for me. According to my insurance estimate, my repair should have taken 17 days. I don't know if these estimates are "working" days or not, so even if you include weekends, that's 25 days. My rental coverage was for 30 days. During my first call to check on status after 2 1/2 weeks, Ruben told me they found some additional damage and that they were waiting for my insurance to go and approve the additional work. After 3 1/2 weeks I called again to check on status and I was told the estimator had approved the work and that they were just waiting for one last part and to do a final cleanup. After 4 weeks, I was again told the same thing. Finally, I literally had to call him and tell him that I was dropping off my rental on day 30 and would be there at noon to wait for the car. To his credit, lo and behold, the car was waiting for me. I could tell that the last bit of door gasket work was done haphazardly at the last minute because the car interior reeked of adhesive odor, which has since gone away. Ruben told me at that time that my insurance estimator took 4 days to see the additional damage and cut the check. Not sure if the 4 days included the weekend, but whatever. So, I was willing give him the benefit of the doubt and let this go because my car was finally finished no harm no foul. That is, until the other insurance that was paying for the rental cost above my insurance coverage told me that they would not reimburse me for the full amount essentially because the repair took longer than it should have. I am out of pocket for this experience $36 and change, which really isn't that much in the grand scheme of things but is just annoying when, not once, did I receive a call from Ruben. All communication was initiated by me. Ruben, you're a nice guy and seems like you try to run a good business but give your customers the common courtesy of a completion date and if you're not going to hit it, let them know. It would have been good to know that my insurance was slow responding--I could have done something about that. Instead, you held on my car too long and I paid for it. Update: Ruben contacted me about my experience, promised to work on communication and made me financially whole for my trouble. They more than made up for my experience. I fully recommend them and endorse their work. I will use them in the future. Thanks! read more

These guys are phenomenal, absolutely amazing. I recently had my car keyed and needed an entire paint job. I really did my research on the three body shops my insurance recommended but I still didn't feel comfortable after talking to different dealerships and reading their reviews. I chose this shop after seeing how great their work was and how many wonderful reviews they had. I even visited the shop prior to bringing my car and they were welcoming and allowed me to see the entire process from beginning to end. They were extremely professional in the shop is running like a well-oiled machine. They kept in constant communication with me and handled everything with the insurance company so that I didn't have a the hassle. My car looks gorgeous, better than brand new. I cannot say enough how grateful I am to them and also to Chuck who helped me through the process. read more
