D’ Garcis Auto Body

I had a horrible experience. Ernesto, the owner was affable, but he doesn’t do the actual work. His employee broke my driver’s seat, and then couldn’t fix it. He then proceeded to repair the left fender and the color didn’t match. It was the worst auto body repair ever. Don’t waste your time.

My car had recently been hit and run by another driver. Fortunately, the other driver was found. I went to multiple auto body shops to have my front bumper (accident site) evaluated, as the other driver wanted to settle outside of insurance (ultimately didn’t happen). One of these shops is D’Garcis.
I came in on a non-​busy Friday morning at ~11am. There were a couple of cars inside but there weren’t any active customers when I entered. Ernesto was holding fort. I was in a hurry but Ernesto was able to accommodate me. He assessed by car and explained the costs of replacing a bumper, implications, etc. Very knowledgeable and amiable estimator.

Ask for Uncle Jose! This is a great body shop, family friendly and female friendly. I don’t like getting hit on when I’m trying to repair my car! They do exceptional work and the customer service is unbeatable!
I was so bummed when my Outlander got multiple scrapes & dings due to my holiday shopping and parking too close to careless idiots! I reported the damage to my insurance company & brought my vehicle to D’Garcis Auto Body. They worked w/​my schedule & my car was ready in just a few days.
This is the only body shop I trust w/​my cars! I also brought my Lancer GTS here 2 years ago for minor body repairs and I’m always extremely satisfied w/​the outcome of the paint job. If you’re looking for a cheap paint job, don’t come here! If you’re looking to get your money’s worth for a showroom quality paint job, then you need to bring your car to D’Garcis Auto Body. I’ve told all my family & friends about this place!
I am a very satisfied customer! Many thanks to Uncle Jose & D’Garcis team!

These guys are the best. They repaired and painted my 87′ Rx7 and replaced moldings, bumpers and the spoiler to update the look to 91′ appearance. She looks amazing! Showroom/​competition quality! If you’ve got a sweet ride that you want revitalized then you gotta go to these guys. They treat you like family.

Awhile back I was working a tech job in Redwood Shores. That day, all of the blue cars in the parking lot were gouged, mostly down to the metal, all over the sides and hoods of the car. I happen to have a blue MINI which was keyed along both sides.
Initially I talked to some other places in the San Carlos area that gave me attitude and seemed to just want to rush through to take my money and leave me stranded without a car.
Thereafter, D’Garcis was selected by my insurance as they were closer to my home than that «other» shop. They are conveniently near Colma BART on that side street where the great «Catfish & Ribs» takeout is hidden. The building is bright yellow and hard to miss.
The staff there were friendly, helped with the rental loaner, and did excellent, expedient work in repairing the damage. They color matched and repainted the car to perfection, as well reapplied the PermaPlate protectant which BMW/​MINI dealers initially apply.
As soon as the work was done and paint was ready, I came to pickup the car. Upon close inspection there was no trace that there had ever been any damage, it looked new again.
The folks there were very accommodating to my schedule and needs, explained the work before they did it, and treated me with respect.
I would highly recommend D’Garcis to anyone needing collision repairs or paint work, they seem to be quite knowledgeable across many makes of cars.
On a side note, I heard they once made award-​winning custom paint jobs for Low-​rider magazine cars, but that’s a totally different story. It is cool to know they have some history and accolades other than your general everyday auto body shop.
