Not sure about integrity. Charged me $120 to replace 1 valve stem and reseal 1 tire. $90 per half an hour labor. Talk about stealerships

Good job on fixing the car but has been a terrible experience otherwise
1) They work with enterprise for rentals, waited more then an hour when initially dropping of my car.
2) was told can leave my rental with them when I picked up my car, left my car there on the 22nd, then got a call from enterprise telling me that my car was dropped of on the 24th. Granted it was at night on the 22nd so the latest with enterprise should have been on the 23rd
3) when called to enquire was treated uncourteasly by the receptionist.(in a harsh voice told me I don't know why they didn't update properly I will

Second insurance claim job. Second time being the cheaper option?! Fast and friendly, helpful professionals. They took care of 100% of the insurance interactions as well.

I had a great experience working with Zimbrick. They did body work on my Honda CR-V after I hit a deer. They were able to get me in quickly, got my car back to me earlier than expected, and kept me updated through the whole process. They worked seamlessly with my insurance company and car rental company to ensure it was a painless experience for me. Regarding the body work, you cannot even tell where it the damage occurred. I was a little surprised they didn't do a full walk around with me when I picked up my car. However, I would definitely recommend them and go back for any future needs.

Great job, very thorough in their inspections. Very up front. I have had two cars repaired at the body shop and we have been very satisfied! They work with insurance companies very well.
