Chambliss Auto Paint & Body Shop

Mr. Chambliss did a minor repair pretty much for free. I will definitely say he’s a fair guy. I’ll definitely be back.

I didn’t get any work done here, just a quote. But left feeling like it was a great experience with an honest business. Mr. Chambliss took a look at my car right away and gave me really sound advice. He gave me two quotes, really took time with me, gave me recommendations on how the ding would affect the value of my car, and actually counseled me not to fix it. I don’t know much about cars so I tend to be really scared of being taken advantage of in getting something fixed, no fear of that here. I will certainly go back if I ever need anything done.

The best auto body shop I’ve used anywhere. The work is thorough, and high quality. Sensitive to budget, namely, will do necessary, requested work, no less, and no upwelling to more work. There may be a polite suggestion, but it’s never pressed beyond that. Work is done in a timely manner, but being a small shop, there may be a longer wait for parts. This place will shop around for lower priced parts, so it’s worth the wait, in my opinion. I have a preference for locally-​owned businesses for quality and to support my community. Any place with a picture of Geronimo on the wall has my vote as well. The location is convenient to uptown and downtown. The shop is usually full, so it’s a popular place. This is my go-​to body shop, and I’m, unfortunately, a frequent flier. Prices competitive, and often lower than other shops because of their efforts to shop parts. Highly recommended!

I went here once my 2013 Toyota Avalon was side-​swiped on the driver side. My insurance covered most of the bill and I just had to pay a $ 300.00 deductible once the work was completed. It took them about 2 weeks to complete the work and after that I was able to pick up my car. I noticed a few days later that my door wasn’t put on correctly and that my door was jammed (It didn’t want to open from time to time) I’ve never had this problem before or even when I was side-​swiped. I let Mr. Chambliss know what was going on and bought the car back in for him to see. He said «Okay, we’ll get that done.» after looking at the problem.
So a few days go by and they called to fit me in. He fixed the door that wasn’t put on correctly but my door is still having issues opening. Now this will be my third time going in about the door. Hopefully the 3^rd time is a charm.

When my mother was in town visiting me, a neighbor backed into her car and left a gouge in the front bumper.
We took the car to Mr. Chambliss, who took a look at it right away, gave an estimate, and made us an appointment to return to drop the car off the next time my mother came to visit.
As it turns out, the fix did not require as much work as the estimate stated. In fact, Mr. Chambliss did not even charge my mother for the repair, stating that he already had the paint needed on hand and it only took a minute to buff out the scratches.
We came away from the experience feeling like a million bucks, which is not something I have ever been able to say before about a car-​repair experience! I would recommend Mr. Chambliss and his shop to anyone. This is truly a great local business.

An honest, trustworthy amazing Auto Body Shop! I had a leak in my car for almost a year know and every time it rained my car flooded, but I was scared of how much it would cost to fix it. I was recommended by another shop to take it to Mr. Chambliss. He give me a very reasonable estimate and said he would try one option to fix the leak. When I got my car back, he had done several different things to the car to try and fix the leak and still only charged me the original estimated price. And he fixed the leak! He also had some great stories to tell about growing up in the South. Great guy and a great shop!

Some things that impressed me about this place:
1) They have an informative, well put together website
2) They’re BBB accredited
3) They were willing to work with me on the price of my repairs since I was paying out of pocket to fix some parking lot fender-​dings
4) Mr. Chambliss is nice as can be! He gave me an estimate right away and was wonderful to talk to
If you ever get that squeamish feeling about having to pick a place for auto repairs, go to Chambliss and feel better :)

Someone hit my car and left me to pick up the pieces. I needed two estimates, one for the insurance company (if I choose to go that route), or a pay it yourself estimate (more likely scenario).
In comes Mr. Chambliss. There are a few auto body places on the Tchops auto repair corridor to choose from. I was on my way to Wrens, when I saw a vacant spot right in front. I pull over and go inside.
There, Mr. Chambliss, who is as sweet as can be (for 8 AM in the morning no less!), looks at the damage, assesses it and then goes to work on an estimate. He offers the 2 options for me, both reasonable, and offers a quick, quick turn around time as well! He couldn’t have been more pleasant. I still have yet to decide how I am going to pay for said repairs (I still have to save up my sheckles), but regardless, I am going to Mr. Chambliss and patronize his shop.
I will update this review after the work takes place.
