Testimonials

On 11/25/2025 Mark Levitt had this to say:
walked in for an estimate without an appt and it took no time at all for Tony Maglio to give me an estimate and explain why repairs needed to be done and how repairs would be done. Tony and Body Craft are friendly & informative and the work they do is impeccable. I brought my car to Body Craft in Nov. 2025 and I picked it up earlier than expected and could not be happier with how my car looks. Customer service at Body is on point making sure to remind me a couple days before my appointment day/date/time. Customer service also called to let me know the repairs are done and that my car was ready to be picked up at my convenience. I’ve been bringing my cars to Body Craft for almost 20 years for body work and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

On 11/21/2025 Hayden Wilson had this to say:
I had an outstanding experience with Mark and Tony at this body shop. From start to finish, they went above and beyond my expectations. The staff was friendly, professional, and kept me updated throughout the entire process. The quality of the repair work was incredible—my car looks better than it did before the damage! It’s no exaggeration when I say the repairs were seamless. This car meant the world to me and could not be replaced. Not many shops in the lake county area were willing to even touch my car just becuase of the age even though it only had 55,xxx miles. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch service and exceptional results. Attached are the before and after pics.

On 11/18/2025 Patricia Tate had this to say:
