I got an estimate from Caprara's Auto Body, I did not have any work done there. All I had was a little dent in my driver side rear door of my car. I walked in and was immediately greated by the secretary who took my name and personal information. She told me that someone would be with me shortly to look at my car. I sat there for the better part of half an hour while the guy I was waiting for finished up his phone call. From the sounds of it, it was not a business phone call.
So after waiting the half hour for the guy to finish his phone call, I walk him to my car. I have never had an estimate before, but he breifly glanced at my car and then hastily went back inside to "type up the estimate." So another 20 minutes passes by and he hands me this 7 page estimate for about $900 for a small dent in a Geo. I understand body work is expensive, but damn.
All in all the people there weren't very helpful, but I did receive my estimate so it wasn't a complete loss.
I suggest getting multiple estimates not just one from Caprara's.
