Final work

Nikola was very professional and Knowledgeable. He fixed it the same day. It was fast. Thank you so much.

Harry H.

Nikola painted my rear engine deck lid and it came out perfect. Color match was great

After - not "pretty" but it is in a hidden place, and it doesn't need "pretty".

See all

Awesome Service! They went above and beyond to help me. Highly recommended especially if you own a foreign car on the island. 5+ stars!

I had a paint job for my Versa, and the shop removed the letters and car insignia on the trunk door…read moreof the station wagon. They replaced the large insignia, but they said that I would have to put back the small letters myself. Also while cleaning the car for an inspection, in addition to finding the small letters for the trunk door, I found water in my wheel well for the spare tire in the trunk. I told them that they forgot to reattach the other end of a plastic tube that ran rain water in the trunk door top right corner. They said that they don't detach that. But they had detached the rubber foam seal on trunk door when they painted the car. The seal is in the same area of the door as the plastic tube. If I had known ahead of time about the small letters, I might not have gotten the work done there. Usually shops will replace whatever they took off the car, and not leave everything inside the car for the owner to put back. To be fair, they did put back some of the stuff I found in the car after I picked up the car- like the car insignia, the rubber foam seal on the trunk door.

So after negotiating a drop off date (16 May) to get my truck repainted, it took 11 days to start…read moreworking on it. 27 May. It was finished and ready for pick up on 6 June. I was off island until that evening. They were closed 7 June and I picked it up 8 June. The repainted color I am satisfied with but the detail work was mediocre at best. There is a ton of overspray on the rubber around the windows and rear view mirrors. Additionally, there are already a few chips in the paint in a few spots which will be a problem in the near future. This has been months of frustration. I am now just over it and will not return to this establishment again for paint work. I will say that the manager was apologetic about the delays due to staffing issues but honestly due to the way this was handled initially, I should have been a top priority and more detail and attention should have been given to my vehicle. In the manager's defense, he did take matters into his hands and conducted a majority of the work himself and I am appreciative of that. I have spent the last 2 hours attempting to clean up the overspray and it will take me several more to get it all removed. Overall , I wish this would have been handled better but you live and you learn. Again, I am satisfied with the color but not the delays in service nor the level of attention to detail. I paid a pretty penny for my vehicle and the paint job was not cheap. The expectations were high but not met. This is my honest assessment and I have no hard feelings towards the establishment nor the folks I have dealt with during this process. Mahalo!

I normally don't leave reviews, but I feel obligated to share our experience…read more Our 2011 Toyota RAV4 has been at Encore Collision since October 2025 for repairs. Over several months, we were repeatedly told that work was in progress, parts were on order, or that the vehicle was nearing completion. It's March 31, 2026 and it is still not finished. However, during multiple in-person visits, there has been little to no visible progress. Communication has been inconsistent, and there were times we arrived during business hours and no one was available. We understand that delays can happen, but the lack of transparency and follow-through has been extremely frustrating and completely unacceptable. We also observed signage indicating BBB accreditation; however, the BBB website currently lists this business as not accredited, which was confusing and concerning. At this point, we have had to escalate the matter in order to seek resolution. We hope this can still be resolved professionally, but based on our experience, we would strongly advise others to proceed with caution as there are many red flags despite the positive reviews.

I don't even know whee to start with this place. My husband had hit something on the front driver's…read moreside. It started leaking anti-freeze. We needed to get that fixed along with the bumper. We took it to Encore and they quoted us $3700. A few days later they called and said that it would be another $400 for a part. Two days later they said that it would be another $200. When we finally went to pick up the car we saw that the bumper was fixed. They also fixed some other things in the front, since it was pushed back. When I inquired about the fix for the anti-freeze the guy had no idea what I was talking about. We had a new bottle of anti-freeze in the trunk and they put it in the car for us. It didn't leak out, which was a good sign. We drove it to Costco a block down and saw that all the anti-freeze was leaking out. We called the guy and dropped the car off again. He called the next day and said it would cost $800 to fix the anti-freeze leak. A day later he called and said it would be another $400 to fix the inverter. All in all, the hubby paid around $6000 for something they quoted as $3700. That plus the fact that they had our car for over three weeks. When we finally picked up the car they did give us a complimentary car wash, which we appreciated. We've had the car back for four days now and thankfully it's running smoothly.

They will NOT work on your car if it's already had a damage estimate and been looked at with…read moreanother body shop - so don't even bother with appointment. Very minor fender bender - bumper and headlight needs replaced. Told me that because the at fault drivers insurance sent my car to another body shop for their estimate and I said that I *thought* they had removed bumper to see hidden damage. Gerber stated that I HAD to use that body shop - specially that I am "not allowed" to go to another body shop, even though I'm paying cash myself. They refused to even look at car for estimate and immediately cancelled my appointment. Other guys Insurance company gave me full payout since their estimate was more than the other guys policy limit. That means - I'm paying cash so not sure why a Tesla approved shop won't touch the car because another shop already looked at it. That's wild because they weren't even going to be working with insurance. (Btw I called other body shop again and they actually did not remove the bumper to look for hidden damage after all). ‍ I was just trying to find recommended body shop for my Tesla since I'm paying for repairs myself. Guess Gerber is not it.

After I was involved in an accident it took nearly 8.5 months for Gerber collision (Kaneohe) to…read morecomplete the work. Initially parts being on order was an issue, but over 160 days my truck sat at their shop with parts and paint on hand. All to be given back to me with extensive damage caused by them during the repair process, as well as all of the original repair areas not completed. My truck went back in for corrections when they told me they damaged my headliner and would not be able to replace the part themselves. They then offered to pay me for the part and repair once I provided a repair order detailing the cost. Once provided, Gerber has ceased all communication with me, has not replied to emails, phone calls, or voicemails and payment has not been received. Insurance will not get involved due to the damage being caused by Gerber, and not from the initial accident. Years ago under different ownership (sigs) they were trustworthy and took pride in their work. Now.... Not so much. I gave them countless chances to make things right, and tried to show some aloha before I made this review. But enough is enough.
