Offering my thanks to the folks at Schaefer Auto Body. I have visited with them one too many times (typically for body work / painting) … but my experiences consistently reveal: easy to work with, good customer service style / approach, very communicative throughout, works well with my auto insurance company to make it seamless for me, and have always been pleased with the results. I would recommend them to anyone needing assistance. Keep up the good work!
I have used Schaefer for years and always been happy with their service and quality. This time they went above and beyond. My service advisor Ian kept me informed by phone and text of the progress and timeline of the repairs. Repairs were completed ahead of schedule even after they found more damage than originally anticipated. All-in-all a very top-notch and stress-free experience.
Schaefer Auto Body was amazing to use! Super close and convenient to my work. Dropped it off before heading to the lake and got it back even better than I expected and or when I dropped it off. Tyler was my point of contact and he made sure that I was kept up to date every step of the way, wether it was text or call or email. Larry and Tanner went above and beyond to even deliver my truck back to me at my work while Tyler was gone for a vacation. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with their quality of work and the time frame it took to complete my repairs.Thank you to everyone who contributed! It goes a long way! Thanks again!
I have used Schaefer before & have always been pleased with their work. The work is completed professionally with no issues. Their estimate is fair, competitive and they don’t come back with additional charges that are not fully explained and are necessary. If I ever need collision work in the future (hopefully not) l will not hesitate to use them again.
When I asked the dealership where they would recommend I take my Mini for windshield and paint damage “Go to Schaefer on Jaguar and speak to Tyler, he’ll take care of you.” was the immediate response. Everything was handled with Geico and Clear Auto Bra plus I got my car back sooner than I had expected. Outstanding
Brought my bimmer in for a drivetrain malfunction(May 18th 6:48pm), given I hit a coyote and other parts were damaged but nothing seriously was damaged, no leaks, no other malfunction; Expect for a broke bumper, a nasty dent in my inner cooler, front bar damage, and a messed up alignment, paying out of pocket because this isn’t the 1st this happened.. I stated and express to the max that I only wanted my drivetrain fix nothing more on the phone (apparently no one heard that part), so I could drive my vehicle back to my home-state to be fix by a family mechanic, every other part could of been salvaged from another BMW that was left to die in a junk yard but I let them fix it anyways under their policy which was fine, meanwhile a month later it was finally “finished” parts finally came in, due to find out after picking up my vehicle, the damaged part were replace with OEM parts, bummer given back to me with the little parts that were still attached as requested, but leaving the shop (June 28th 4:56pm) maybe 6 miles after getting on to the freeway.. boom! drivetrain malfunction pops up vehicle goes back into limp mode.. as I wait for a tow truck on the highway to take my vehicle back to my condo, I noticed my prescription drugs were gone from my middle console, my glove box raided papers everywhere.. I don’t wanna play the blame game but I leave my medication in the car so I’m able to take it when needed.. sounds stupid but when your job requires you to drive state to state at all hours of the day; 6 days a week.. it is what it is.. I’m not mad just disappointed.. I don’t know if had anything to do with me have different state tags that makes people wanna do this, thinking I won’t be back because my tags are 1,200miles away but I’m a resident of both states I’m always here… I work here….(-$3,980)🤦🏼♀️
Tyler kept me informed and I knew exactly what was happening and when parts were coming. He is a wonderful employee for them. He resonates a professional and caring attitude. I wouldn’t take my car anywhere else.
I have been to Schaefer body in Maplewood twice for repairs of my car and both times there have been significant problems with the repairs. I’ll admit they know how to make the car look good, but beyond that I’m still dealing with problems two years later. After getting into an accident and needing repairs to the frame/suspension/wheels, there was a squeaking sound from the rear wheel that began after the repair. After taking the car back to Schaefer literally 4 times for one problem, they told me it was fixed each time despite that not being the case. I eventually gave up because they were charging money for each “repair” and accepted the squeaking. It had worsened over the last 2 years and I finally took it to a Honda dealership who informed me the tire hub was bent and would be $500 to fix, something that should have been fixed at the original repair.The second time I made the mistake of taking my car here for repairing a dent in the door, the repair team forgot to hook up the electronics to the door and the window and lock system wouldn’t work. I had to plug the electronics back in myself to fix this.Schaefer is good at cosmetics, but beyond that, take your car to another place if there is any real damage.
The Maplewood location is top notch. My car was an odd repair, so they had to work on it much longer than expected, but I was regularly contacted with updates on how it was progressing and can’t thank Tyler enough for his persistence in finding solutions. Great body shop!
Always a consistent experience- great crew and professional job from start to finish.
Everyone was perfect.. my car window was smashed and the team fixed it within 3 days when it could have taken way longer with parts etcc.. they cleaned the inside of my car especially well, and even replaced the car mats with new ones. 10/10 recommended
Schaefer had to replace my tailgate, back bumper and tailpipe. They also had some repair work underneath all that. The work done looks great and the people I worked with were very pleasant and professional! They made the whole process extremely easy! I appreciated the updates they texted me along the way so I always knew what was happening.
Great place! They made everything so easy and kept me involved throughout the entire process. Can’t recommend them enough!
It was my first time using Schaefer and Tyler was wonderful throughout the whole process. The repair was done very well. I highly recommend this place.
As always, Schaefer Auto body did an outstanding job on my BMW. Their attention to detail is exemplary. This is the second time they have worked on one of my vehicles. The turn around time was outstanding! I won’t go any where else.
From the receptionist to Chris, my SA, the whole experience was amazing. The communication was timely and efficient, and the vehicle was ready exactly when promised.
I had a lot of tree damage and they were great communicating with my insurance and even though it took awhile (they warned me up front) because of parts shortages they did a great job! Looks brand new!
Getting hit was very stressful, but what wasn’t was the process at Schaefer. They kept me updated on the process, worked with my insurance company, got my car back when promised- and even detailed the inside. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Awesome service. Very accommodating of my specific requests. Excellent quality on the job. Very happy. Will definitely use again.
Schaefer did a great job on the body repair of my car. They completed the work early and were professional and courteous to work with. I highly recommend this company!
Took my car to this shop because they were partners with USAA so it made it incredibly easy to deal with payment for my accident claim. Took about a week and a half to finish up my car, and the car looks brand new after their work. I would choose them again for future repairs.
Best auto shop I have ever dealt with. Wrecked car from out of state and had to go home in a rental. Tyler, the service writer, let me know everything they were doing to my car every step of the way and even took time from his weekend to allow me to come and get it. Hands down the most transparent auto shop I have ever worked with and I hope to use them again if I am in the area! They are extremely well put together people.
Communication is excelent. High quality work.
Schaefer Autobody in Maplewood was extremely professional, did excellent work on our van, communicated regularly about their progress and finished the job on the day they promised. Staff was very friendly and explained everything clearly.
Not just good quality but excellent quality! “Make it like it never happened” is their motto for accident repair, and the repair staff live up to that thoroughly. The customer service staff are great too, making what could be a stressful event an entirely satisfying and pleasant experience. I couldn’t be more pleased.
Excellent work. Sent progress updates daily. They cleaned the car after the body work and it looked brand new inside and out. I would recommend without hesitation.
Great communication on the status of my vehicle and when they could fit me in. Returned my car in beautiful condition after work was done. Very satisfied.
Car stolen and taken for multi-day joy ride that ended in a ton of damage to our new, high end SUV. Have had to have some other cars fixed in the past, but have never experienced such a professional and customer-focused auto body / repair firm before. Can’t thank the Schaefer team (and Tyler, specifically) enough. Well done!
Schaefer made taking my wrecked vehicle in for repairs a breeze. They set up my car rental and made dealing with the other persons insurance so simple. While I hope that I never have to have another repair from a car accident, I will make sure to tell everyone I know that is looking for a repair shop about my experience.
Highly recommend. The work they did touching up paint on my new truck was impeccable. Not cheap, but as always you get what you pay for. First-rate craftsmanship.
Great experience - really liked the text updates. Made the process simple and painless. The work they did was fantastic.
They did an amazing job and finished it two days earlier than I thought
I was happy with Schaeffer Auto Body. They gave me good information when I called them. I might have liked them to call me instead to keep me abreast of what was going on. It took almost a month but I believe it was because of COVID and having to wait on parts.They were curteous & imormative when I called them & the car looks great!
Workmanship was good and car was delivered at promised time. Very professional. Will use again if needed.
Very professional and easy to work with...did a great job.
I had extensive hail damage. Their service and communication are impeccable! The car looks brand new! I highly recommend Schaefer!
I would reccomend Schaefers to anyone needing body work done on their car. The whole experience from the estimate to pick up was top notch. I was always kept informed during the whole process and got my car back earlier than promised. The entire staff was so professional and courteous. Thank you for a great experience.
Tyler and the other staff were great. The body shop folks did a wonderful job. I highly recommend!
Auto body work looks as new, always available for updates, felt as though I had personalized service!
Service was great and professional! During the repair, one new issue was identified. Ian was able to explain issue clearly, provide additional pictures and details for decision making. Very helpful.
Best automotive experience repair experience I have ever had. I spent almost no time waiting either while dropping off or pickup. They made the rental experience seamless, and my car was not only repaired like NEW, it was CLEAN, inside and out. 10/10
Very professional. Got the repair done almost a week sooner than initially projected. Car looked brand new after. Tanner was super nice and always kept me up to date and gave me a detailed explanation of what all needed repairing. Highly recommend.
A superior auto body shop. Quick and efficient auto estimates and repairs.
This is the 2nd time I have used this location and as the 1st time the work was flawless. Tyler kept me informed throughout the process and was very helpful.
Good work and responsive service. Reasonable prices too.
I would never use any body shop buy Schaeffer. Their service is the best and attention to detail unrivaled.
Very easy to work with. Top notch body repair and looks brand new. On time and very professional. Highly recommend.
After a terrible incident where a 2x4 was kicked into our windshield and roof on the interstate, Schaefer got our truck looking like it never happened.Recommended by several coworkers and my dealership, they worked with my insurance to get me a higher level of service and oem parts. If I ever need body work on my vehicle or need to refer a friend, I’ll know who to call.
Couldn’t have found a better place to get my car fixed—repairs were fast, well done and the team was professional and pleasant. Will definitely refer everyone to Schaefer from now on.
Tyler’s great. Their paint guy is truly talented matching a difficult color. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Went to get a quote estimate and was told by Ian he would email it to me and I never received it.Finally obtained it after writing this review. 😞
All repairs were done in a timely manner within the price ranges in the original estimates. The quality of work is exceptional in my opinion. One could not ask for a better experience.
Ian was the representative that helped me. He was very professional. The work was completed on time, and I was happy with the job they did.
Really professional and excellent job on painting and polishing. Finished much sooner than I expected.
I don’t think that they perform the job to the best of their abilities. As an Autobody shop I would assumed that if you are working on my car and you see that there is other work that can be done to it you would gather up that information and present it to me in order to continue to get my business. And if there is an light on in my car for air pressure how about going the extra mile to put air in my tire, because you have to drive my car in order to do the work that is needed. I feel as if they customer service can greatly improve, as well as their efforts to get repeat customers.
I got my Mini repaired there. Great service and quality. I was lucky and my car was ready even earlier than originally estimated time. Staff is really cool. I worked with Matt - so professional guy! What also cool, the connections between different companies (insurance, car rental) are well established, so I didnt have any extra headache working with all parties at the same time. So, I had really good experience with this particular center.
Tyler is great to work with and the Autobody team did a fantastic job repairing my car. Highly recommend this team. Great quality and a good price with excellent communication.
I am very pleased with Tanner Ridens professionalism. He has returned all my phone calls and he was always happy to help me to understand the process to fix my car. I am very impressed with the customer services experience.
They did a great job of keeping me informed on the progress of my car and Ian was very helpful in answering all my questions. My car looks great! I would recommend them.
Had a small accident at work and my husband automatically recommended Schaefer Autobody Centers. They do wonderful work in a reasonable amount of time and you cant ask for better service. Thank you Tyler for being so patient with me and all of my questions.
I was happy with the results of my car, but the customer service could use a bit of work.
Our experience was great. Tyler did a fantastic job handling the repairs of our vehicle. He communicated well throughout the process and we were extremely pleased how the car turned out.
Schaefer did an excellent job replacing my driver side mirror.
No hassle! These guys were great. Offered touchless drop and were aware and sensitive to our current health crisis. Total professionals. I’d absolutely recommend.
Everything was great, Matt did a wonderful explaining the process. He called me several times to let me know how things were going. I would definitely use them again.
Schaefer’s did an excellent job on my car. They made the experience very easy. I received quick responsive answers to my questions from my technician.
Outstanding service. Top rated. The work was exceptional and they were very fast. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them. THE BEST!!!!
Professional! Friendly! The car was sparkling clean inside and out! Done in three days, not four! Thorough! Reasonable! Saved me time and money!
I would rate the service and body work completed on my car a 10–Excellent service-quality work—great customer service! I
There is no other body shop that I would trust with my car. They did an incredible job, cannot even tell what they repaired! Thank you very much!!
It’s never fun to have to do business with an auto body shop since it means something bad happened to your car, BUT my experience with Schaefer Auto Body was great. I worked with Tyler who kept me updated the whole time. My car looks amazing!!
Excellent service! Great work!
It was seamless and received two days ahead of schedule. The personnel were friendly and professional.
I was really happy with the work they performed on my car. Everyone was kind, courteous, and professional.
Always a good experience here. Unfortunately, I seem to be a good customer that they know by name. Is that good? Thanks Tyler for taking good care of me and my car.
Very professional and courteous service! Matt made the whole experience less daunting after my accident. My car looked wonderful! It was like nothing ever happened.
I just recently worked with Schaefer Auto body in Brentwood. They were so professional from the receptionist to the final person when I drove off the lot with my car looking brand new inside and out. They also have a great working relationship with Enterprise Leasing so I was able to get a rental simply and rides from rental to Schaefer. I would recommend Schaefer autobody to anyone needing a car repaired. I have the same spelling for my last name but no relation but was treated like I was family.
Excellent service and work product. They even finished early! I highly recommend Tanner and his team.
Schaefer was able to help me get my car back after an accident as quickly and easily as possible. I will refer my friends and family here for any autobody needs.
Seamless process from start to finish. Great communication and timely work.
Fast and Superior work.
This is the only place I’d ever take my MINI. These people know what they’re doing when it comes to this make and model. Very happy with the work they’ve done to get my car back to looking new.
Great experience!!! Quality repair with quality parts. They made it easy.
They fixed my Infinity G37 quickly and did quality work.My baby looks and drives like brand new again!!🥰
Working with Schaefer’s in Maplewood was a pleasure. Quality of the work was top notch and the car looks better than it did brand new.
Very professional. Excellent customer service. Extremely happy with the results.
Great estimate
