Why a Fully Equipped Repair Facility Matters

Collision damage is not always limited to what shows up first on the outside of the vehicle. A dedicated repair facility gives technicians the space, tools, and setup needed to evaluate the damage properly and complete the work in a controlled shop environment. At Central Auto Body, all repairs are completed at our Maplewood facility by trained technicians. For customers from Richmond Heights, that means the repair process happens in a shop built for body work, structural repair, refinishing, and careful inspection rather than in a temporary or makeshift setting.

These guys at Central are fantastic. Their goal is to do it RIGHT. They are easy to work with and super quick. Exceeds expectations. I’ve had paint less dent removal, a detail, and some front end damage. Outstanding for sure. If you see that red BMW coupe, that’s the one they keep looking great.

This is, by far, my favorite auto repair and body shop!!! Everyone is very nice and helpful to each need I've ever had, whether it be in auto repair or body work done. They have always gone above and beyond proving they are the place to go. This past week i was in an accident and i thought there was no hope for my car and when i got it back days later she looked better than when i had bought her 10 years ago! They all are truely gifted people and i'm grateful to be so lucky to have my cars fixed here. Everyone here always makes you feel welcomed and included in the process. I will continue to bring all my car's here while recommending Central to whom ever needs auto repairing.

Did an amazing job on my aunt's car. So thankful she got it done here instead of the local alternative for almost twice as much money. Her car was done in under a week vs 18 days as estimated by the other guys. Thanks so much for getting back on the road so quickly. And making the car look brand new!!
