I'm giving 3 out of 5 stars for G&B Auto Body because of a poor paint job that had to be re-done and unprofessional behavior toward the customer.
Terry quoted me $714.73 to paint the hood of my car but said he would do it for $650 cash. WARNING !! Terry DOES NOT GIVE RECEIPTS for cash. They weren't the cheapest, F-Z Perfection in Congers would've done it for $500 but G&B does the body work for Schultz Ford so I figured they must be worth it.
The job was done in 3 days and the car looked fine from a distance. Upon closer examination I noticed bumps in 4 different places, several deep scratches in the clear coat and many imperfections that can be described as "pimples" and "warts". There was even an area that I thought was a ring of clear coat with a depression in the middle - it turned out that they dinged my hood !! Terry said he would see if he could sand out the problem areas but mentioned that I'm "expecting perfection". I told him that the job they did was FAR from perfect and I shouldn't have to accept the hood the way it was. They had to repaint the hood - it came out much better the second time around, and they took care of that ding.
I did notice a slight indentation in the paint and asked Terry if there was something he could do about it. Terry raised his voice and said, "OH NO, that's as far as we go, I've already spent more time on this car than it's worth so THAT'S IT !! Hey, it's not MY fault that they spent more time on the hood than they wanted to - It's THEIR FAULT they didn't do the job right in the first place !! All I asked was if there was something they could do about the indentation !! I was surprised by Terry's unprofessional attitude and his decision to put his profit above his customers needs. Then he just walked back into the store and left me standing there !! Since I already paid cash there was nothing I could do. I should've paid with my credit card so I could've had the power to deny payment. G&B's website states that customer satisfaction is most the important thing and that they strive to "meet or excel" the customers expectations - they obviously DON'T.
If you don't care too much about your car and just want an O.K. paint job at a higher price then go to G&B.
If you TAKE PRIDE in your vehicle and want the job done right I would strongly recommend going to another place...unless you don't mind paying more than you have to while having to make several trips bringing your car back and forth because the job wasn't done right while Terry makes you feel like you're being unreasonable !! Just unbelievable. read more
