Simply amazing. This is the second time I've used A. Vargas Body Shop on Magazine Street in New…read moreOrleans, and the experience has been outstanding both times. In a perfect world, none of us would ever deal with car accidents. But in a city like New Orleans, they're often an unavoidable reality. When it happened to me, Alex and his talented team made my vehicle look good as new--maybe even better. The service was exactly what was promised. Pricing was more than fair, with no hidden fees or surprise add-ons--just honest work at a fair cost. And the timing was spot-on. My car was ready exactly when they said it would be, just like when they repaired our Jeep Renegade three years ago. The quality of workmanship speaks for itself. Alex never judged me for wanting to repair my 2019 Ford Fiesta rather than let insurance total it. I love that car--it has barely 50,000 miles and gets 42 mpg on the interstate--and Alex understood that connection. To top it all off, they returned the car cleaned from top to bottom. While I certainly hope I never need a body shop again, it's reassuring to know A. Vargas Body Shop is just a phone call away if I do!

Brought my car in a few months ago becuase a darned pothole bottomed out my car and my rear bumper…read morecame loose. I called my dealership and they directed me to a place with horrible reviews. So I decided to go it alone and chose A Vargas. I pull in and ask for an estimate. Instead Alex says the bumper is just loose (no damage) and everything looks fine. He then snaps it back it place. Problem solved. Alex wouldn't accept a payment! He said "it was easy" and I told him it was his expertise and availability to quickly help me that was worth money. Finally I just put some cash in his shirt pocket, waved goodbye and walked away with both of us smiling. I can't image a more trustworthy, professional, and knowledgeable body shop. Don't let the location or the cluttered appearance of the shop stop you. This is a great business.

My 25 (y/o) stepson had the rear end of his 2010 Nissan Altima smashed in, a result of a hit & run…read morewhile parked in New Orleans. The rear bumper/frame, trunk door, and trunk area significantly damaged to the point that Al honestly suggested to consider totaling. However, since I was previous owner and took care of engine & car, we decided to let Al and Marshall Bros. do the repairs. We're glad we did, the workmanship was great - the frame is straight, body panels aligned, color matches, and trunk door opens without any issue (didn't think this would be possible). We are very happy - fair pricing & excellent workmanship.

Please note: this review is NOT about the actual quality of their repairs.  It is only about my…read moreexperience trying to get an estimate, which I'd give a solid 4.5 due to my unusual circumstances. My car has a rain leak, and I know with 100% confidence where it's coming from.  Unfortunately it's one of those scenarios where knowing the problem and actually being able to fix the problem are two different issues.  So before jumping into dramatic DIY repairs, I decided to try to get professional estimates. The catch? I didn't want to take PTO at work to bring my car in. Fradella's was one on a list of shops I ended up calling.  As was expected , I had to go through the circular argument: Them: "You have to bring the car in." Me: " Why?" Them: " So we can see the damage." Me: " The damage is invisible because it's inside the door." Them: " Okay, but you have to bring the car in." And so on. Eventually they agreed that I could email them some pictures and they'd give me an estimate based off that.  I think the person I emailed forgot about it or was out for a little while, because it took a week to get a response.  However I did eventually get an estimate from them without having to bring my car in, and considering how difficult that was with all the places I called, I felt they deserved a good review.

My dentist had recommended this place to me, so I felt confident to take my car here. I was lucky that the other drivers had Geico car insurance and it covered my repairs and the rental car. I had my car repaired at a different shop before that loved keeping my car at the shop with no updates on my car AND would not answer my phone calls. I had to wait 1-2 weeks for parts to come in while my car was in their shop, before they could even get started with my car. I didn't understand why I had to leave my car there and waste time with a rental car. The employees at California Customs were very nice and accommodating. The estimators showed me what exactly I needed for my car and tried to keep the repair costs as low as possible. They informed me of any possible hiccups that may keep my car in the shop longer than expected and gave me very realistic estimates. I never had any issues here with the whole repair process and they made sure everything was done correctly in the quickest way possible! I always worry about repair shops using cheap parts to repair my car, but they used all OEM parts to repair my car. All of their work was done perfectly and I had no problems with their work. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for anyone to get their cars fixed! They keep you well informed and get the job done right!
