Ed’s Body and Paint

I brought my car here after my driver side door was backed into by another car. The shop was recommended to me by a friend and he was right to make the recommendation. They gave me a quick estimate, which I was able to have insurance cover. I asked that the car be ready by Wednesday and they called Tuesday afternoon to say it was done. When I picked up the car, the work was perfect and they had even washed the car. As I was about to pull out, they ran out behind me to say that one of my tail lights was out. They apologized for not realizing that before and then fixed it right then and there free of charge!
I was also able to ask them to change the oil and rotate the tires while they were working. I paid extra for that, but it was great not to have to make the time to go do that separately.
I would definitely go back there and would feel good recommending it to anyone who needs auto body work done.

Did a great job. Estimate was half of what the other place I went was. They lowered the end cost because it took longer than expected. I highly recommend.

I found this shop on Unilocal after someone wiped my side mirror off. I called them, they were nice and asked me to bring it in. To my elation, they had a ‘Best Body Shop 2015′ plaque on the wall from the city paper. I got a very reasonable estimate and had a new mirror that matches perfectly in two days. I may have spent 20 min. Total in the shop for the two visits. I’m very pleased and will use them again. All of the workers in this family business were gracious and pleasant to deal with.

Ed’s Body and Paint does great work at a reasonable price. I live near Washington but I happily take my cars up to Ed’s for body work. One of my cars had an accident, and the repairs I was quoted in the DC area were $ 2500. I decided not to fix it, was involved in another accident, and went to Ed’s based on the Unilocal reviews. They were able to fix the damage from BOTH accidents for $ 500 less than the DC quotes for just the first accident. They even threw in a free detailing. But most importantly, the work was of high quality. Ed’s also did nice work on our second car.
Rich, the manager, is very friendly and honest. He really goes the extra mile to make the customer happy. To me, it’s a no-​brainer — It’s worth the drive to know that there is no question that the estimate will be fair, the work will be good, and you’re dealing with good folks.

Just got my BMW back from Ed’s and could not be happier. I was a bit hesitant to take it to a non BMW specialized place, but I would not hesitate to return if I ever got in another fender bender. They repaired my front bumper and hood and returned my car on time and sparkling clean. I went to 3 other places and two that specialized in BMWs and they were all double to triple of the cost of Ed’s. Their shop manager Rich was also awesome to work with and had great customer service. So glad I found this shop!

Rich is just about the nicest guy there is. He and his staff will go out of their way to make your ride look good at very reasonable prices. They have a matter of fact approach combined with a caring demeanor. They are honest and fair.

Who do I call when I get side swiped at 10pm on a Tuesday night while it’s freezing cold? Rich and friends at Eds, that’s who! He set up a tow immediately and emailed me an estimate by the next morning when he opened. And guess what it
Is Thursday afternoon and I have my car back and it’s like new. Even washed it for me. I can’t praise this whole crew enough.

Probably a great solution if you are ok with your vehicle being left out on the street, completely unsecured. This place does a stellar job of leaving cars in various stages of dismantle on the residential streets surrounding it for days on end. That is of course until they have their car boy valet come out and move them to a new location
on the same block to thwart the city’s 48 hour rule. Better check your vehicle against baltimore city parking citations when you pick it up because chances are good your vehicle will be ticketed while it sits out.

Brought my car in after a small fender bender and I don’t regret it. Came in early on a weekday and had a quick 20 minute consultation. Dropped my car off the week after and they had it fixed in twice as fast as their recommended time, since I mentioned I needed it by a certain day. Plus, they quoted me much affordably than prior quotes.
Fast and courteous service! My car was just like new! They wiped down my whole car before returning it to me, when they only had to do the affected area. They went above and beyond. They even shuttled me to work since their driver happened to be available when I was there. I’m coming back here if I need body work done again!

I shopped around at 3 different body shops for estimates and Ed’s was 50% cheaper than the next closest, he did the job when I needed it done and in 3 days, even though he said 4, and did a beautiful job. Great service. They just won a new customer.

Really great, personal service. It’s clear that the people who work here really care, and I don’t think I’ve felt that at an auto repair shop of any kind. I came in for a side mirror replacement, and they ordered the part, I came in the next day, and they fixed it for me in about 25 minutes. I was expecting to spend a lot more time and money than I did, and I was more than happily surprised. The only drawback about this place is the narrow driveway its located in, but the exceptionally friendly people in the office offered to help me out of the driveway if I needed it. Overall, highly recommended!

One star for parking customer vehicles on neighbourhood streets. Taking valuable spots for residents and leaving customer’s cars out where additional damage could occur. They do a lot of fork for the State of Maryland who I am sure would not their vehicles left on the street. I have seen them work on car right on 33^rd Street which is nuts.

The first time I went to Ed’s, someone had sprayed the side of my almost new Honda Pilot with white paint. I was not a happy camper, so I took it to Ed’s where Rich took one look at it, got a cloth with something on it (I’m not a pro, but I’m guessing it might have been acetone), and wiped it clean in a few minutes. I asked him how much, and he said no charge. I still (gladly) gave him something for his effort.
We have since been back around four times. We would not consider going anywhere else. Rich and his crew have always returned to us cars «like new» after they have been in the shop, always in a timely manner at extremely competitive prices, and they couldn’t be nicer. Like one person mentioned in his «soft review», Rich is truly a nice guy, who gets it, he knows what customer service is all about. My only regret is I wasn’t able to see Rich’s dog Cody on our last trip in. Rich informed me that Cody is doing fine, but he has retired!

Ed’s body shop is where I had my car painted from yellow to silver they was so patient and picking out the color and assisted me on what would work well they did a fantastic job I feel like I have a brand new car I recommend this body shop to all my friends they are reasonable and fair and a very unique office

I love this place. Ed (started the business 30 years ago) and Rich (his son) are fantastic.
The service provided was great — they were VERY responsive, prompt, quickly got an estimate together, were patient when I wasn’t sure exactly how I wanted to move forward with my repair (thanks for the time to make a decision I was happy with!), squeezed us in the next day, and got the repair done in 1 – 2 business days. They let us come late to pick it up. They were just great — flexible, responsive, professional, kind. The price was right as well, and they delivered on their estimate perfectly.
Also — here’s the «soft» review: I know this has nothing to do with the quality of their work or the cost or professionalism of it (all of which they excel in), but I just really LIKE them. I just LIKE being at their shop. They’re warm, funny, don’t talk down to customers, answer your questions very knowledgeably and patiently, and they came across as very trustworthy (and they are). They’re clearly juggling a lot of people and calls, but still managed to be relaxed and detailed.
I don’t know how they do it, but I am sure grateful that they do! I feel better knowing that if I ever get into a fender bender again, I know exactly where to go, and that I’ll feel great about it.
PS — even Unilocal’s «not recommended» reviews of this business are glowing. Interesting, no?

Ed’s place is great for body shop of cars, it’s professional, fast, and affordable. I’ve got my front bumper hit the curb but I was afraid of fixing it cause I guess it could cost me a lot. Ed heated the plastic back and made it as it was. Fantastic. And he only cost my $ 60. He could have costed me more according to my other estimations. Thanks Ed

I cannot be more pleased. What a wonderful business. They did superb work at a great price. Wonderful customer service. Great people. Would highly recommend.

Ed’s was absolutely fantastic!
I managed to rip the front bumper cover off of my Accord after getting it caught on something while backing out. All that was broken was a plastic tab, but numerous other auto body places told me that I’d have to get the entire bumper cover replaced for 400 – 500 bucks. My 13 year old car, though beloved, is barely worth that much at this point so I was not amused.
The guys at Ed’s said it wouldn’t be a problem at all to fasten it back in place– I took it in and literally 15 minutes and two screws later it was looking good as new. They had asked for 10 bucks but I was so happy I threw the guys a 100% tip. I’ll definitely be back for any future problems.

Ed’s is amazing! My boyfriend needed to get his front bumper repaired. I called asking for an estimate, and the price I was quoted was much lower than everywhere else I had called. We dropped off the car, but hadn’t really thought about how to leave from there since it was a bit farther from the city than we thought; they had one of their employees drive our car to drop us off in the city and then drive back to Ed’s. Talk about superb customer service, going way above and beyond! The body job was well done as well. Definitely highly recommend!

I was unfortunate enough to be hit by two separate cars within as many weeks, both their faults, with minor but annoying damage from each– one culprit wanted to pay out of pocket and the other put me though such an insurance nightmare it was easier to just pay for it myself.
After looking briefly around online for local body shops, Ed’s caught my eye from its high ratings and positive reviews. The Manager, Rich, was very personable in helping me, and very accommodating. His estimates for both repairs were significantly lower priced than all other local body shops, which was a major relief, and the work was perfectly satisfactory once completed– even to the eye of my father who used to own a dealership and repair center. I will definitely be taking my car back to Ed’s for any future work– fingers crossed it won’t be for a long while though!
