Lisa’s Paint & Body

Have taken my car there FOUR times and Lisa refused to charge each time because the effort was so small. Good communication, tremendous service, and honest people — a great Tallahassee small business!

Lisa is a complete scam artist. I brought my vehicle in to replace a simple trim piece that snapped off due to aged fasteners. I knew that I needed to buy a new part but she proceeded to try to tell me that my A pillar was damaged and needed additional bodywork. The A pillar on my vehicle is concave by design, it’s the same on both sides of the vehicle. I knew immediately what she was trying to do and in addition to being one of the rudest people I’ve ever met she’s a scam artist who clearly tries to prey on people who don’t know much about vehicles or repair work. Stay clear unless you want trumped up repair bills.

My wife’s truck was rear-​ended by an elderly gentleman and needed a new bumper plus paint. He asked that, instead of filing an insurance claim, if we would take the truck to Lisa’s and he would pay for the repairs. We weren’t familiar with the place, but my wife got some good reviews from our daughter’s school. So, we brought the truck in. I was surprised it was not more expensive (only $ 528) considering the damage. The man who hit the truck pre-​paid, so our pickup was a quick in and out. Hopefully we won’t need her services again, but if we do, we feel very comfortable in trusting Lisa!

I took my car to get the bumper repaired. Lisa estimated the price at $ 100 less than it actually ended up costing. Also, she told me that I NEEDED to replace a part on the bumper because after it was taken off, it would no longer stick. Well, when I got my car back, the old part was sticking just fine AND she had charged me for the part that was not on my car. She ended up asking me to come back later so she could fix it, after my car was already there for two days. No way. She ended up sending me a check for the part, with the wrong name on it. Now I’m not even sure I can cash it.
I also asked her to touch up the rest of the car while they were at it (with paint) and when I got there, I had to ask them again (and wait for it to get finished). I thought supporting a fellow female would be a good idea, but I will not be going back to Lisa. Unorganized and poor service.
