A 1 Auto Body & Paint Shop

Had a car accident and the tow truck driver recommended to go to A1 autobody shop.
I think it was a really smart move, they took care of the insurance paperwork they deal directly with the adjuster my car was out of the shop within two days. They even gave me a replacement car until they were done with the fixing. I strongly recommend them to all my friends.

All I can say is that I wouldn’t recommend this corrupt Israeli chop shop to my worst enemy. Having my car repaired here after the «owner» hooked up my car to his tow truck after an accident, was hands down the worst car repair experience of my life. So many things were wrong, it’s hard to even list them all, but suffice it to say that this place needed over 2 months to get a simple job done right. The main problem was that they tried to cut corner after corner in regards to the materials and parts they used. I was also lied to straight to my face several times during this horrendous process about special materials having to be ordered when it turns out they just used hardware store supplies like, sheet plastic, spray insulation foam and superglue… seriously! I was also told to my face that the owner was in Israel so I couldn’t talk to him, while it turns out he was standing right there in the same room! Save your self a load of existential frustration and DO NOT go here! I almost forgot to mention that there were several things (little dings, weird chemical smears on my window tint, grease on my upholstery, etc) that happened while in the shop, unrelated to the accident. Terrible place, STAY AWAY!

Okay, since knowing a good mechanic is like having an attorney, doctor and plastic surgeon in your back pocket (okay I kid, but this is Houston) I had an unfortunate accident when it flooded Houston a couple weeks back. I was coming off Chimney Rock and 59 and my car hydroplaned and stalled, and it was POURING!!! In fact when i stepped out of my car in 4 inch heels water started pouring in my car. I had only had my little car for less than a week!!! As HPD came along to try and help out ALLLLLLL (and I do mean all, at least 30) stranded motorist along came Juan, a helpful tow truck driver who actually wan’t skeezy and very sweet. He said he would tow me back to A-​1 in Stafford, and then we could call someone to come get me. After talking to HPD, they told me that if I let them tow it I would have to pay for storage, then arrange for my insurance to tow to a dealershipo. YIKES – I could see the $$$ racking up, so off Juan and I went. Went to A1, arranged a ride home. Fast forward next day, they arranged for someone to come get me at work, go by the body shop, they had already called my insurance, and get this – They said they would take care of a rental for me!!! woo hoo!!! (especially since I was a dummy and didn’t take a rental car on my insurance) They were able to take care of my car, fix it up, clean it out, and have me back in it in a matter of weeks. They also put my new license plates on it. It has been running great, no problems, and very simple. Blake over there took care of everything. Being a girl, I have been ripped off before my car places, but found this all very easy. Would recommend!
