I have used Somerville Auto Center several times during the past few years for both of our cars. The worst accident was from a tree limb crushing the roof to a small bumper crush (most recent). In every case the quality of their work is outstanding! Their service is spectacular! Both Julio and Stanley have a great rapport with their customers and completely handle the claim with the insurance company, rentals, etc. They are delightful...and always put the customer first...and that, in itself, is refreshing. Their shop is very clean and organized. Their prices are competitive, for sure. It is strange, but, although having a car accident is normally a downer..I look forward to my experience with Somerville Auto Center. They are very professional...and turn a bad experience into something very good. They have earned my loyalty. I give them the highest recommendation! read more

SAC repaired some non-insurance covered body damage and not only did their excellent work end up costing less than the initial estimate, they detailed the entire car inside and out so when I picked it up it looked like it just came from the dealer's showroom. I highly recommend this business! read more

I got a head light and some scratches fixed. They did a great job and were quick and so friendly. I would definitely recommend and go back in the future. read more

I had an amazing experience with Julio at Somerville Auto Center! My lease was coming due and I had a LOT of accumulated damage from 3 years of street parking in the city. I didn't want to put multiple claims through insurance at once, so I paid out of pocket for some of the damage. Even so, the price was very reasonable compared to other estimates I had gotten, and they navigated all the insurance details for me. Julio and the staff were all very laid back, friendly, and accommodating. And the car came out good as new! I think I found my new auto body shop! read more

Julio and Charlie were amazing!!! Did an incredible job not only in the detailing but also dealing with my insurance company. Their patience, level of detail, and commitment to the client is unbelievable. read more

I would probably give this 3.5 stars if I could. I picked Somerville Auto Center because of the wonderful reviews and the service was almost great, but missed the mark. First, the pros: - They agreed to evaluate our bumper damage next day and gave us a punctual (and I believe fair) quote - Very friendly service in person - They detail your car so you pick it up very clean, which is just a nice treat Now, the cons: - After taking our deposit they said they would call when the parts were in - a few weeks went by and no call, so I called them and they said the parts already had arrived. Great! But not sure how long it would have taken for them to get in touch if I hadn't called - Initially was told they'd be able to get it done in one day, but when we dropped it off on a Friday they said it would take multiple days. Okay, fine, but I wouldn't have planned on a Friday if I knew they would have it all weekend. On Monday, called to see when it would be ready and they said maybe not until Tuesday. Partly not their fault since a fog light arrived broken, but again, just not a lot of proactive communication and 4 days is a long time to not have a car you thought you'd dropped off for 1 day. - After picking up our car and getting home, noticed that there is a scratch on our brand new bumper. Yes, I should have checked more carefully before driving away, but disappointing. The car is not otherwise in pristine condition and having just given up our car for 4 days, probably not worth getting it fixed, but annoying to say the least. Before seeing the scratch, I would have given them another chance. Now I will probably seek services elsewhere next time I'm in need. read more

A parking garage fender bender caused the back bumper of my car to fall off. For my car to be drivable, I needed somebody to re-attach it as an interim fix before I could schedule a more thorough repair appointment. I stopped by Somerville Auto Center and told them my situation, and they were friendly, professional, and helpful. They securely re-attached everything in under ten minutes and I didn't even have an appointment. Their work ensured that my car was safe to drive again. And then they didn't even charge me, they were so kind. I highly recommend their services and I'll be bringing my car back for future auto body work. read more

I was recently in a fender bender and my insurance company pointed to Somerville Auto Center for the repairs. This was my first time using them, and I was very impressed with the communication, quality of service, and friendly staff. I'm thrilled that I found a shop that is straight forward and doesn't give me the run-around for quotes/repairs, and I'll definitely be using them for future [hopefully unrelated to an accident] work! Thanks, guys! read more

I really can't say anything bad about this place. I had an unfortunate incident, and the repairs took a little bit longer than expected. The people at Somerville Auto Center recognized the delay, and made extra efforts to make sure I was accommodated. In lieu of giving me a car back that wasn't quite finished, they took the extra steps to make sure the repair was done correctly. I *hope* I don't have to come back anytime soon, but if I did--I wouldn't be disappointed. Lastly, as pointed out in previous reviews---they will give you back a car that is detailed, and feels brand new! read more

My car was hit while parked, and dented along the whole side. The team at Somerville Auto Center was able to work with me to fix my car to look brand new, and was very helpful in coordinating on timing to make sure my car was back to me as quick as possible. Will definitely go back to them if I ever need auto body work. read more

My 2010 Kia Rio was on the receiving end of a minor collision recently. Somerville Auto Center was able to provide me with a written estimate, and then perform the work. I dropped my car off on a Monday morning and picked it up that following Saturday morning. The end result was as if the collision never happened. My car was also detailed, and I truly don't think it has been this clean since I purchased it new. read more

I haven't written a yelp review in years, but I am coming out of retirement to talk about Somerville Auto Center. My very first brand-new car was hit, and I was nervous about the whole process of getting it fixed. From filling the claim to picking up my car, it could not have been easier. But this is not a review for car insurance, so I'll skip ahead to the body work. -- After looking at the damage, Julio said it would take about two weeks to fix. Even with two snowstorms delaying shipments and piling on other work, they were finished right on time. --When I dropped off my car, they had a rep from Hertz waiting for me. (The gentlemen at Hertz were also great, but that's a review for another day.) -- When I picked up my car, I gasped at how flawless my car was. They even buffed out some unrelated scratches. They also filled my gas tank! I've heard horror stories about body shops, but they were honest, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure I understood the whole process. I hope I never have to go back but if something happens, they will be the first ones I call. read more

These guys are GREAT. My Jeep was a mess and they made it look brand new. Very accommodating and professional. 10/10, would use them again

Came in with a minor back bumper repair from a car accident. They were helpful with getting the insurance involved and keeping me in the loop with everything. Great service! Took a little bit longer than I originally expected but I think it was because of the insurance company and the parts and not so much the shop. read more

Had a small crack in my bumper that slowly splintered out into the underlining splash guard, weather shield, and wheel wells. Decided to finally bite the bullet and get it fixed. Somerville Auto Center was very friendly and professional. Along with replacing my bumper, they also detailed my car and washed it. When I went to pick up my car I felt like I was looking at a new car. They made what is typically a painful/expensive experience and turned it into a pleasant one! Thank you Somerville Auto Center for taking my 9yr old car and taking such great care that she looked like she just came off the lot! read more

I never thought I'd be writing a review for my experience with a body shop, but these guys are truly impressive on every level. First, let's start with the fact that they are honest - a value you can't overstate the importance of in the car repair industry. They gave me a very competitive quote up front and stuck to it. Second, they are reliable. They take the time to explain the entire process and give you all the information you need throughout the estimate process without giving you any pressure. If you decide to go with them, they actually return phone calls and are responsive when you have questions. Third, they get the job done well and just as promised the first time. I had a pretty substantial dent on my driver's side door with a deep scratch down to the metal. They made it look like it never even happened. Every estimate I got told me how difficult the paint job on my car would be to match, but these guys nailed it. They even fixed some scratches on my driver's side mirror that I don't even think was on the estimate! Amazing! Fourth, the owner of the shop is extremely trustworthy and went out of his way to give me a ride home on the rainy day that I dropped off my car to their shop. I didn't even ask! I mean who does that? The guy is super friendly to boot and you can totally tell that he's honest in all of his dealings. In sum, I'd highly recommend these guys. I'm so impressed with their body work that I've decided to take my car back to them for routine work and repairs. It's hard to find good, trustworthy mechanics. I'm glad I've got a reliable place in Somerville Auto Center. read more

Update: I'd love to use them again...if they would ever call me back.. I tried to get a quote for my cars rear bumper, rear quarter panel, left door ding. I showed up...couldn't get a quote because the adjuster was out, no problem there, they took photos and never called me back. Fine they're busy, when i went in there the first time they weren't as busy so I guess they just needed to acclimatize to the new environment. I called again a week after, still no reply; "He's out right now but I'll have him call you back". Fine I'll continue to wait, I wanted to give them a chance for a repeat customer. Called again a week after that, same damn story... Called JUST FOR THE BUMPER last week...same story "yea no problem we can take care of you, we will give you a call back with a quote" its been 4 days. Went to Canton Autobody and guess what, immediate service, no BS. I even referred my Bosses car for a respray here, I guess they're just too busy to care about repeat service. read more

I've used them several times over the years for both my personal vehicles and for company vehicles. They are always honest with a great price. I highly recommend! read more

Got rear ended and had some other body work done on my Land Rover. Looks like new! They were super friendly, incredibly professional and very accommodating. They even washed my car and cleaned the interior before returning it. They definitely went above and beyond what I expected. I will absolutely use them again. Highly recommend. My new favorite. read more

Took my brand-new car to Somerville Auto after getting rear-ended in an unfortunate accident just before Christmas. They made the repair process as easy and painless as possible. I was impressed by not only the work they did (it looked like new), but also their professionalism (the car was left in even better condition than I left it on the inside) and overall friendliness. Thank you! read more

Great experience. Body damage looks awesome. Price was reasonable. Was nice to get my car back. Got a discount for paying cash, too.

I brought my car in after an accident to be fixed and after a huge delay in price negotiating with my insurance, they returned m car but the door still doesn't open easily/ makes a weird sound when I try to open it and the jar of change i kept in my car was gone. read more

After getting into my first car accident, I was so stressed about the insurance paperwork, where to bring my car for repairs, and every detail in between. I found this repair shop online and they were helpful to me from the day I first called them. From the moment I handed my keys to them, they took care of all the insurance paperwork and I didn't have to take care of anything else. It was a huge weight off my shoulders to know that my car was in good hands (and I'm really protective of my car). My car was ready on the day they promised and it looked better than new. The collision repair work looked wonderful and they cleaned every inch of my car - inside and out. It had never looked so good! The owners are very friendly and give the personal touch that means a lot. They even drove me to the T the day I dropped off my car. I actually joined yelp just so that I could give them my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! read more

My wife just got our car back today, in for some minor bumper damage. These guys did great! Looks good, and insurance covered it. The detailing (i.e. Car cleaning) was a nice bonus. read more

Took my car there to get a new paint job..i can only say from now on they are the only shop inwill ever use again!! Not only did they do a great job but the customer service is unreal!!! Julio is awesome!! Go see him!! And all of the crew!! read more

I've used these guys three times now for various jobs on different cars and I've been very happy with the result each time. They're honest people and do professional, quality work. read more

"Life is beautiful" was stuck in my head after my visit to this place. I was having a bad day to say the least when I showed up here. By the time I left my car had been fixed and my faith in humanity restored. When I told the guy about what happened he said you know this kind of stuff happens, it's ok I think I can get this out right here and now and 15 minutes later my car was like new and I was on my way. These guys are great people. read more

I brought in my car after an accident and it looks better than when I bought it. The price was also very reasonable.

3/29/2013 My car was hiT I called my frinds and he gave to me the Phone from Somerville auto. It's was quickly and easy the guy answered all my questions because this was my first time that it's happend with me so I don't know what's to do but I found somebody else there that helped me very well. Then they got my car. Ther service was excellent and quickly 2 weeks later my car was with me and I was happy with the service it's was great and I don't want to trouble again with hit car but if I need I m sure I will call to the Somerville auto again....excellent and serious service.

Stanley, along with the Somerville Auto Center team is great. I've brought my wife's mercedes, and my BMW there, and the work is terrific. They are quick, with quality work, and great customer service! I Highly Recommend this auto body shop. read more

The guys at Somerville Auto are honest, helpful and professional. I have had engine work as well as body work done, and every time they do a great job. read more

I'm pleased with my recent experience with Somerville Auto Center. I called them up to see if they could look at my car, which had been abandoned in an East Boston hotel parking lot by my roommate with an unidentified 'over-heating problem.' They were very friendly and accommodating, and offered to send a tow-truck out to the car to save me the trip. They were very clear and straightforward explaining the diagnostics of the problem and didn't try to pressure me into making other costly repairs (which they could have--my car is old). They took extra measures to make sure the problem had been solved at no extra cost to me. I found everyone I interacted there to be very friendly and accommodating and honest! This is the first place I would recommend to any friend in the cambridge/somerville area who is having car troubles. read more

I was in a total bind this morning - woke up to a flat with a hole and AAA came, said they couldn't find the tools to get my spare out so they put air in my tire and told me to get to an auto shop ASAP. Found Somerville Auto Center on Yelp, and I was SO glad I did. I called in to let them know I was coming. They brought me right in, found the tools that AAA couldn't seem to find, got my spare out and on. Also gave me some advice on my other tires all for next to nothing. Couldn't have been happier and will absolutely be going back here anytime I need a close/local fix. read more

I have taken my car to Somerville Auto Center for the last couple times and they have always done an exceptional repair job. I recently got in another accident and still decided to go back to Somerville Auto Center even though I live 30 mins away now. This time I worked with Stanley, who was very helpful throughout the process and was open to do what he can on requests. The quote for the repair job was very reasonable and was a lot less than other quotes from body shops in the same area. I would bring my car back again. read more

After extensive research of local body shops I went over to Somerville Auto Center for an estimate to repaint the passenger side of my Acura TL due to an accident. The price was TOO reasonable I didn't expect it to be outstanding but I was wrong. My TL is White Diamond Pearl 3 coats of of paint, one of the hardest to match and they did an excellent job of blending everything in. John the owner is a great guy to deal with. Planning to come back to have them install some body kits... read more
