I called the shop on Tuesday evening at 6:45PM. The owner answered the phone and I asked if I could bring my car over for inspection the following morning. He said yes. I then asked if he was willing to see the car tonight. The owner said he typically leaves at 7PM or 7:15PM but would wait for me. I told him it would take 5 minutes and he said he would leave the open sign flashing. When I arrived the owner and a relative came out in the cold and gave me an estimate. I was also given a $100 coupon. They were thorough, knowledgeable and quite humorous. I was given three dates to consider having the damage repaired. I needed to sleep on it and decided the next morning to call and schedule the repair. I called at 8AM because I knew the shop was opening at that time. I didn't want to lose the opportunity to schedule one of the two available slots in two days. I've learned to trust my gut and it told me using Columbia Auto Collision Center was the right thing to do. I will place another review after my work is done and describe the quality of the repair.
