Friendly staff, great work! Edrys was really helpful, let me know what was going on and responded to my emails promptly. Brought my car in for inspection last week and brought it back in for repair 1 day ago, was able to pick up my car quicker than I expected. Car looks great and it was even washed before I picked it up! Extremely happy with the results! read more

Joe and team make getting your car repair as painless as getting a car repaired can be. Very communicative, fast and quality work.

So long as this shop stays open, and god forbid I need more body work in the future, I will always return here. I was directed to Glendale Auto Body the first time via my insurance; my second time was on my own. I've worked with Mark, Amanda and Jessica, all of whom were very professional, communicative and honest. As a young woman, you can't help but to feel vulnerable when going to inquire about having work done on your car, but they put my mind at ease from day one. All repairs were done in a timely fashion and to the highest standard possible. Thank you Glendale Auto Body! read more

Best body shop around. My insurance sent me here the first time. So happy they did! I came back on my own the second time. Very professional and helpful...they treat their customers well. read more

After visiting a couple body shops along San Fernando I thought the days of old-school honest auto services were over...that was until I visited Mark at Glendale Body, he restored my faith in the business. My dad was in the car business when I was younger and he used to have many friends in the body shop business, most of which have moved away or retired. They were honest guys, the type whose businesses thrived on word-of-mouth and their honesty and quality work kept people coming back. Glendale is a unique place with body shops popping up like slugs after a rainy day. Many of them aren't exactly in business to help you. But some, like Mark at Glendale Body, actually seem to enjoy helping people. I can tell you from my experience that the work he put into making my car look great was worth a lot more than he charged me. He's honest, super nice, and also an artist when it comes to his job. read more

I was recently hit from behind and had extensive damage to my car. Glendale Auto Body returned it a work of art. It was completely detailed inside and out. My car came back nicer then the day I bought it. Everything matches and it is beautiful. It even runs better. Mark and his staff are top notch and I received the best customer service I have ever had anywhere. This place knows what they are doing and they made this incredibly stressful situation as pain free as possible. I recommend them with 5 stars and assure anyone that this company knows their business and your car will be as good as new. Thank you Mark and thank you Glendale Auto Body. read more

Oh. My. Goodness. This shop has the best, most professional, most courteous staff I have ever encountered. I took my car in to fix a rather deep, 3 in. long scrape/dent that had occurred while it was parked in Glendale. I had taken it to the dealer to get an estimate, and it was an exorbitant amount that they wanted to charge me. I went to Glendale Auto Body and from the first moment, Mark was helpful, knowledgeable, polite and very straight forward. Jessica was also lovely. She showed me the entire breakdown of what I was being charged. I didn't see one thing out of place. they didn't try and push anything extra, either, like most places do. They fixed my rear quarter panel so it looked honestly better than new, and it had been a pretty nasty dent/scrape. Not only did they fix the scrape, I got my car back and Mark had fixed my mirror casing, which was falling off, fixed some minor dents, painted some of the places where the paint was coming off, cleaned off my headlights AND vacuumed and detailed the inside of my car, all for about a third of the price the dealer wanted to charge me. Excellent prices, above and beyond customer service, a professional, friendly atmosphere, right in the heart of Glendale. I am going to Glendale Auto Body for ALL my future repair needs read more

I love this place soooooo much. They fixed two fender benders that were caused by the other party and made sure I got my car back as clean as the day I bought it. Class act by all who work here. Mark is such a nice guy and makes sure you're taken care of. Jessica works the reception and she really gets out of her way to accommodate. I will always e a customer here for as long as Glendale Auto Body is in business. read more

Taken my vehicle to this place several times. They've done a great job each time. Highly recommend. Everyone is always friendly and accommodating. read more

I have had to take my car in for some fender benders and Mark is right on top of it. They do excellent work and get my car back to me on time. He is honest and trust worthy and they do excellent work. Thanks Mark !!! read more

I scraped the side of my car against a gate which left a bit of a dent, so I went to Glendale Auto Body shop to get it fixed. I thought the quote was very reasonable (about $600 less than another shop I went to in Culver City), so I went ahead and let them fix my car. They had my car ready in the time they said they would, and they even cleaned the outside and inside of it. My car looked amazing when I picked it up. I would definitely go back! read more

Came here the other day because my bumper got dislodged after catching a wall while trying to back out of a really tight spot. Staff was friendly enough to try and fix the issue at no charge. Since it couldn't be fukkt repaired, I ended up ordering the necessary parts through them to get it done and will be coming back later in the week when it arrives. read more

Needed a minor repair on my RAV4 and was recommended by my insurance company. Friendly and did a great job.

This place is First Class. You can count on their word You get great results in a reasonable time Only body shop I would ever take our cars to Thanks Mark, Amanda and the team Long version After reading the yelp reviews, this was going to be my No 1 choice, I took my wife's car here to get fixed after she was rear ended. I managed to catch Mark on a Saturday an he gave me the quote to submit to the insurance - I found out later that they don't work Saturday's he just happened to be there when I went round. There was no mention of not working Saturdays or come back Monday like I got from some other places (had to get a couple of quotes). Mark was friendly, polite, honest and helpful. So we eventually get the OK from the insurance company and I dropped off the car just before we left for a 3 week vacation. On our return however we were informed that the repairs were not complete due to issues with the insurance company requiring another week. (Not the body shops fault 2wk delay in the insurance company coming out to see the car) Amanda (the secretary who is also very nice, friendly and helpful) helped organize a rental for my wife for the week. True to their word, the car was completed when they said it would be and it looked great. read more

I took my car here after being hit by an MTA bus. Ethan was very helpful. They took care of my car, made it look brand new, and even replaced a bad headlight for me (not part of the accident), free of charge (I supplied the light, but they didn't charge me additional labor for installing it). As if that weren't enough, when I picked up my car, it looked brand new because cleaned it and buffed out all scratches and other blemishes on the entire car. They misplaced my key for a minute, and bought another one. When I got there, they gave me the new key (a $125.00 value) for free. When I say I got great service, I mean I REALLY received service like I have never received at any other body shop before.....EVER. I highly recommend Glendale Auto Body. I am extremely satisfied. read more

Mark and Armando are the best! Can't speak highly enough about their service overall, from the minute you walk in the door for a quote, they are very genuine people who really do their best to make an inconvenient situation much more bearable. I've gone to them twice and they did their best to get everything done in a timely manner. Great guys and I'm hoping I never have to go back, but if I ever need repairs I'll make sure to bring my car to them! read more

So I got into a little fender bender with somebody who was nice enough to let me just take care of it without going through insurance. But the thing that I was really really scared about was that what if I got to the body shop with the person I bumped into and asked for an estimate the owner of the body shop might have me between a rock and a stump and hit me where it hurts. ( money ) but I guess I was wrong very nice gentleman by the name of mark soon as I met this guy had a good feeling about him the price he gave stayed the same . The work was so exceptional I had the guy pick the car up call me right away and say man looks awesome.. This guy is certified! staff everybody's friendly talk to mark . He will make it happen . you want your car done right head over here he will make it right . Thanks fellow yelpers for helping me again read more

Being a female, I'm always afraid of getting ripped for any type of car repair, since I don't know much about cars. However, this is the second time Glendale Auto Body has repaired my car, and both jobs were fantastic. Mark is the very trustworthy person. My first time coming here was years ago when someone hit my old car in a parking lot. The lady was a saint because she actually left her business card and told me to contact her to get her insurance info! I was shocked that there are still honest people out there! Anyway, her insurance adjuster recommended that I go to Glendale Auto Body and I did, and they did a spectacular job. This time, I had to replace the back door of my benz (which was completely dented from a self-inflicted accident during a moment of stupidity) and the job was done in 6 working days as promised. Just picked up my car and I'm quite pleased! It's pretty again! In fact, they got it detailed and it looks brand new! For auto body work, Mark is the man! And a man of his word! read more

My brand-new, 2-week old, VW Beetle was rear-ended on the freeway a few weeks ago. Total bummer! I took it to a body shop close to my work, but they couldn't get me in right away--requiring a 2 week wait--maybe longer. That wasn't going to fly. I wanted my new car fixed and back on the road ASAP. So, I found Glendale Autobody. They are a VW-certified repair shop, which was a plus, and I was told they could definitely take my car immediately. From the get-go, Armando and his team were attentive to my needs and appreciated my circumstance. They made calls for me, set me up with a car rental, got my insurance adjuster in the next day to appraise the damages, etc. I felt I had chosen the right place, and that my banged-up new car was in good hands. I picked-up my car this morning, and it looks great! I know it suffered damage, but nobody else will. The bumper could have been "fixed", but they weren't having any of that. They assured me they'd replace it with all-new parts. I was shown the damaged bumper and another part from underneath that needed replacing. They destroy damaged parts, so that nobody will grab it from their trash and try and re-purpose it. I like that! Hopefully, I will not need another auto body shop anytime soon, nor do I wish it upon you. However, if you do find yourself in need of auto body repairs, and you live in the Burbank/Glendale/Pasadena area, I highly recommend Glendale Autobody! read more

From day one I felt taken care of by Mark and his staff. Mark did a fantastic job on my rear bumper after my accident. They left the car looking pristine. It was washed, waxed and vacuumed. Mark took the time to explain what had to be done and showed me the bumper, the actual bumper with the fiberglass shell off and saw the damage inside with my own eyes within minutes of dropping it off. Customer service was outstanding. Mark even came in on Saturday for me to pick up my car. Just top notch service. 5 stars all the way! read more

I really dont know what to say about this place from the second I brought my car to the second I left. perfect A-Z customer service and an amazing job. I want to thank the owner who I talked to when I first brought my car in. I think his name was Mike? Mitch? I cant remember but he was very nice, amazing customer service skills and assured me that my car will be fine. I recently got into my first car accident that I was at fault in. I was so furious because 99.9% of the time I am a good driver and for this to happen just really grinds my gears. So I called my insurance company and they said if I chose a body shop that the are contracted with than it would be covered 100 percent and so I just chose this place and like I said. The second I arrived it was amazing. The gentlemen named Ethan was very nice and answered all my questions because like I said I have never been through something like this before in my life so I am very grateful for this company and I will highly recommend it to anyone that wants to go to a body shop. read more

Well, there is a reason every single review is 5 stars and my experience was no exception. My fiance's car got hit-and-ran on, taking off a rearview mirror and banging the door. We called two places by our apartment and neither of them did body work, but they BOTH recommended Glendale Auto Body. The staff there is very friendly and they basically have an honest, pleasant attitude. They took my insurance, and even got the insurance company to completely replace the smashed door instead of just plaster it (sure, you can argue there is monetary incentive here, but A: If you knew these guys you wouldn't assume that, and B: The extra costs were taken care of by my insurance, my deductible stayed the same). Mark is very personable, just an all around good guy. When the car was dropped off he offered to take me where I needed to go, then came to pick me up when it was ready. I told him my car (which was at a different shop, not by choice but because of proximity issues) was just returned to me with a headlight out that was on when I took it in, and he offered to change the bulb immediately. All around, I am very satisfied with my experience here, my fiance's car looks as good as new. I will definitely be going back with any more car trouble. read more

If I could give them more stars, I would. I've had auto body work done before and it's taken AGES. I was expecting at least two weeks of driving (and paying for) a rental car when I got a call last Friday letting me know that my car was finished. I was stunned. The turnaround time was amazing considering I dropped my car off on Monday morning. When I got to the shop, I could see my car glistening in the lot. The work was FLAWLESS. Couldn't believe it was that well done and so quickly. The staff was so courteous and helpful and called Mark in so he could say hello. To have the owner of a shop come in and shake your hand is just something you don't see these days. I would take my car back here in a second and will be recommending this shop to anyone who needs body work done on their car. By far THE best repair-related experience I've ever had anywhere. read more

I really can't say enough about the amazing service here. My car was swiped by someone on the street, the damage didn't seem too major (a couple of dents and some missing paint). Unfortunately, the car was nearly brand new and the damage was bad enough to warrant $1900-$2600 estimates by a number of the top-rated shops around LA. Not only did Glendale Auto Body come in at the best price to completely fix the damage, but understanding my reservations of having to spend so much on such minor damage, the shop's owner (Mark Vargo) asked me to wait a few minutes while he took the car around back. Maybe 15-20 minutes later, here comes my car, looking practically brand new. Mark had the car touched up and the paint damage worked over. And what did he charge for this amazing work? NOTHING. While all the other shops in town simply wanted to exploit my situation and make as much money as possible, Mark understood my bad position and took it upon himself to help me out. Thanks to Mark and Glendale Auto, I was able to fix my car and save nearly $2000 in the process. I would take my car here any day, and I wouldn't recommend anywhere else in LA to get work done! read more

I used to take my cars to another local body shop that has also been in Glendale for years, but after my experience with Mark and his crew I will never go anywhere else other than Glendale Auto Body. Mark and his crew really care about their customers and the vehicles they repair. Trust me, spend 5 minutes talking to him and you will see what I am talking about. II took my car in cause I had a little dent in the rear bumper. Glendale Auto Body fixed it on time at very reasonable price, and best of all, bumper looks brand new again! Hopefully I don't get into accidents where I need to visit Mark again, but if I do I will not go anywhere else! Trust me and go see Mark at Glendale Auto Body. You won't be disapointed. read more

No wonder this place has 5 stars Joe, Mark, the whole team are great. Very friendly people, great service I'd recommend this place to anyone looking on not getting screwed over like most other body shops will. read more

Mark and the team at Glendale Auto Body did an amazing job on the repairs to my 2007 VW GTI. They were communicative throughout the whole process and turned my car around in a timely manner. Very grateful for their work! read more

Needed my bumper put back on and Glendale Auto Body came highly recommended. They did not disappoint! Mark was fantastic and I got my car back within a few hours. Yay! read more

My 2005 Toyota Prius was rear ended and the other driver's E-surance paid for the claim for repair of the rear bumper and the lift gate panel. Went to 3 auto body repair shops in Glendale to get estimates. Mark from Glendale Auto Body was honest and gave helpful advice on the repair of the bumper and to insist to E-surance that I wanted an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) part and not AM (after market) which is usually inferior to the original part. Mark handled the claim with E-surance to make sure all the damages to my car was repaired to the highest standard. The 13 year old Prius was repaired and then cleaned-- interior and exterior at no extra cost. My car never looked so good since I purchased it in 2005. Thanks so much to Mark and the Glendale Auto Body team who made my auto repair a positive experience. I would recommend GAB to my family and friends. read more

Came here after being rear ended and was very pleased with the whole experience. My car was finished earlier than expected and looked brand new when I picked it up. Joe was very accommodating. Will return for any future auto repairs. read more

Glendale Auto body is the Gold Standard in my book for Body Shops in the area. These guys do OUTSTANDING work, which they 100% guarantee by the way. The Owner Mark is the most awesome guy, he tells you like it is and he is a man of his word. If you are scouring Yelp in search of a Body Shop to take your car to, just go ahead and call off the search and take your vehicle to Glendale Auto body, I am certain you will be happy you did! read more

I cannot say enough about the service I got! These people are fantastic and their work is sensational. I was treated great. Mark the owner is friendly and makes you feel right at home. Selene, the receptionist is on top of everything, and Edrys who is in charge of the body work is there for you. My car looks great, inside and out. She was washed and shining and looked like the day I bought her when I drove her home. Go to this place! It is a winner! Madeline DiMaggio Glendale, CA read more

Thank you to everyone at GAB ! I was referred here by vw dealership on Brand after my vw was smacked into by another vehicle. After a terrible experience leaving me anxious and concerned , let's face it the stress of any impact is horrible. I felt that my vw golf which I have worked hard for was in safe hands . My car looks brand new , drives great and I know Mark at GAB stands by his shop and gives his personal assurance that I have their guarantee for life on the work performed . Thank you everyone for all your hard work to get my vw golf looking and driving top notch and great customer service by Selene through the whole process . Also a big shout out to Wagner who got me a great set of wheels/rims . read more

Another accident, another trip to Glendale Auto Body and I am very pleased with all of their outstanding service. This time the damage was done to the front bumper. There was a huge crack in the front. Edrys provided me with an estimated time frame, and he didn't disappoint. The car looks awesome; even better than it did before. Celine assisted with the rental car portion, and I received the best customer service from Mark, Edrys, and Celine. I also had a friend of mine get some work done at Glendale Auto Body and she was very pleased with the work as well. I highly recommend them. ~Sandra read more

Their customer service is on another level! They did an awesome job on the body work I needed and took advantage of any opportunity to go above and beyond my expectations. They definitely exceeded hype! read more

I am not one to write reviews but my experience here was so jarring that I feel the need to do so. Glendale Auto Body wasted my time, did not honor their word, and Edith, the manager there, was extraordinarily rude to me. I cannot speak to the work they do, as I did not leave my car here, but the customer service is horrendous. I called Monday and I was told I could bring my car in anytime Monday through Wednesday without an appointment. I confirmed again Tuesday morning that I would be able to bring it in, but by the time I arrived at 2:00 pm I was told that they had a full load of customers. One of the employees, Joe, was extremely considerate and made every effort to intake my vehicle and honor their word. However, when Edith discovered this, while Joe was out of the room, she told me that I needed to leave immediately. I was disappointed to have wasted my time and went to leave. Joe again made an effort to address my dissatisfaction, having spoke to the owner, and said that they could take my car if I was unhappy. About 15 minutes later, Edith discovered this while I was sitting in the waiting area and responded angrily, seemingly displeased that she had been undermined and took it out on me. She confronted me, telling me to leave immediately. I informed her that I was already being helped and that I didn't have my key as it had already been taken from me. She found my key, handed it back to me and again told me to leave and to quit wasting my time there. I asked to speak to the owner and Edith said he was not there (although both she and Joe had claimed to have spoken with him during my time there.) I left feeling utterly confused as to why I had been treated so poorly. At no point had I raised my voice or responded to Edith's rudeness with anything more than disappointment or shock. I would not advise anyone to go here, it is stressful enough to deal with a repair without having to worry about how you will be treated. read more

It's a nice thing when you find a business that does really good work, stands behind their work, communicates clearly, and treats you like a person. This is one of those shops. I feel lucky to have had my local VW dealer send my car to Mark here. read more

I dont know who is writing these reviews.........After checking on yelp I tried them out and was extremely dissapointed. Their customer service was fine but their execution was terrible. They delivered my car 2 days late and with a shoddy job. I noticed some paint discoloration on my bumper that they fixed and the owner just stood there and offered nothing. Just a long silence and a shrug........terrible! read more

These people are so great. They did a spectacular job on my car - it looks way better than it did before the accident. I have two little kids and my car was full of all kinds of stuff - diapers, goldfish crackers, CDs, all the junk you accumulate when you're schlepping kids around all day - and they took the time and trouble to put it all in the trunk and give the interior a thorough cleaning. I almost cried when I saw it. And Jessica held my baby and entertained my 3 year old while I moved the car seats from my car into the rental and back. She is a total pro - she made everything seamless with the rental agency so I didn't have to do anything. I really cannot imagine a better experience. read more

I can only add to the stellar reviews. My car got clipped by an imbecile in a parking lot, on the bumper. Her car looked like a crumpled Kleenex, so you know she was no driver. I just took a chance and went to Mark's shop, and I was completely happy with the result. Mark and the whole staff -- Jessica was my first contact -- were polite, informative, and really helpful at every stage of the job. They are the old-fashioned kind of business that thrives because it produces a superior product, in this case service, and I would never, ever go anywhere else for body work. Kind of makes me want to go drive into a light pole or something, just I could visit again. This is a joke. But you get the drift. Fine people, fine work, and everything prior to this post I can vouch for. read more
