Johns and staff put customer satisfaction and communication above all else. Their work is efficient and impeccable. When insurance has been involved, they've handled everything every step of the way and I've never had to worry about going back and forth as a middle man. Insurance will always have a list of preferred shops, but no one will ever beat the customer service and quality work that John's offers. They will always have my business and I will always send people their way. Thank you all for the kindness and going above and beyond anytime I've had to bring a vehicle in.

Fantastic! Superb! Beautiful! All words to describe the amazing repair done to my F-250 Super Duty. As you can see in the attached photos, the pickup box rails were crushed by a fifth-wheel trailer that dropped due to a failure of the hitch to latch properly. I first took the truck to an independently owned shop in Bloomington I had used previously. They said the only way to repair the truck was to cut off the pickup bed sides and weld new panels on. Their estimate pushed the cost past the insurance “total loss” point. Not satisfied with that estimate, I took it to John’s Paint & Body. John inspected the truck, took pictures and we returned to the office. For the next hour, John and Trevor sat over a computer looking at the pictures along with detailed Ford diagrams of how the bed sides were constructed. After much discussion, they concluded they would be able to pull the bed straight using some specialized tools they had, finishing up with old school hammer and dolly to get the body back in shape. They pointed out this would be a much better solution over completely replacing both bed sides, as no matter how well you weld them in place, the welds will never be as good as the original factory welds. Most importantly, the estimate came in thousands below the other estimate. I really appreciate the time John and Trevor spent to formulate the best solution for the repair. The results are spectacular! You can sight down the side of both sides from the rear, and the body lines are perfect. There are no distortions, no bulges, no wavy lines, just perfect body sides, and the paint is perfect. I’ve worked on cars for over 60 years, both professionally and as a hobby, and body work is not in my wheelhouse. But I can recognize great body work, and this is great body work! And to top it off, they detailed every square inch of the truck, both outside and inside. The truck looks new once again like it did when I bought it new 26 years ago. It was spotless. And, the total cost came in exactly as estimated. This is a great shop! John, Trevor and the lady in the office (I apologize, I forgot her name) were all so very nice, and answered every question I had. It doesn’t get any better than this. I hope that I never have a need for more body shop work, but if I do, John’s will be my first, and only choice.

Wonderful experience from start to end with Johns Paint & Body. They kept in constant communication about the entire process and worked well with my insurance company. I was never left wondering when my car would be done etc. They were able to get my vehicle in promptly and 3 weeks after my car accident, I had my car back looking good as new. Very quick turnaround time considering the damage that had been done to my vehicle. They even detailed my vehicle which was a nice surprise. Thanks Johns Paint & Body!
