Quality body shop, great service, really care about their work but won't rush it - they take their time and make sure the work is done correctly, even if it takes longer than originally promised. I'd much rather have it done right the first time!!

Robert also has such a kind, caring personality, and this really shines thru as he truly cares about his customers. He is genuinely focused on quality and quality customer service. It is with great pleasure that I recommend Automotive Enterprise for your auto body repair needs.

If you want to see some real classics and exotics drive by this spiffy, expensive-looking shop. I've not had any work done here--my cars are too rough and tumble to be worthy--but I often see original Cobra's, classic Vettes including my all time favorite 1962 model, and souped up rockets of every kind here getting work done. They seem to specialize in high end body work and I've also seen some nicely done aero mods on a brand new Volvo V50 which is my latest favorite candidate for My Next Car.

Automotive Enterprise does great work. My car is going in today and I'm confident they'll take good care of her.

i had a little mishap in my beloved z06 and found this shop on yelp. a glowing review by a guy who said that he was a picky type caught my eye- sounds good. i brought my baby to bob and his family, and i could not be happier. bob worked with my insurance company, and his son repaired my car. i am very particular, and i have to say that the quality of work is top notch. the body work is good, lines are straight. my car is silver and the paint match is very good. the only complaint i have is that it took a little while, but as they say- nothing good comes fast! these guys take pride in their work and it shows. the best repair experience i have had. Ever!

When my 2007 Chevy HHR was rear ended, my husband told me to come here. His father has been using Automotive Enterprise to keep his car in good shape for years. Since my father-in-law is a salesman and spends most of his time on the road yet his car still looks well taken care of, I followed my husband's advice. I'm glad I did! The car that hit me dented the hatchback, damaged the bumper and pushed the exhaust into the gas tank (melting a hole in the tank). I brought the car in on a Saturday and Bob was able to quickly set me up with a rental. From the moment I dropped the car off, I didn't have to worry about the repair. They spoke with the insurance companies involved and I was only contacted for verification and for them to tell me how it was going. When I got my car back, I was thrilled. I don't think the car has looked that good sinc the day I bought it. I can't even tell it was hit anymore! Thank you to Bob and all of the guys who worked on my car. Great job!

I was referred to Automotive Enterprise by my mechanic, after I have hit snow bank in the Sierras. Bob, received cordially, gave all orientation about work authorization and insurance approvals. He manage all details with the insurance, return the car as promised, and principal, perform a great job. He also kep me update about work development transmitting confidence. The car was returned to me clean, and great condition. Take you time and stop in AE and have a good talk, and a great shop and very good professionals.

When a tow truck rolled into my parked Corvette, I wasn't sure where to turn for repairs. I was referred to Bob by several other Corvette owners, who said that he would take good care of me. Bob kept me informed all throughout the process and was a helpful advocate when dealing with the tow company's insurance agent. My car looks beautiful and I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you!

After being rear ended by an uninsured driver on the freeway, I did a lot of research to find a shop I could trust to bring my '98 Corvette convertible back to the beautiful condition it was in before the crash. After a tour of his shop and looking at past results of his work, Bob guaranteed I'd be happy with their work. He worked with my insurance company and Bob and his son and staff did a fantastic job and people that have seen the car are amazed at the results. I would recommend his shop to any Corvette owner!

There are not enough "Thank you" of gratitude for helping me, especially being a single woman who doesn't know anything about cars, let alone repairing too for just helping me in every way of repairing and selling my car. This awesome business, Bob and his guys truly was and still is the BIGGEST BLESSING I have ever received in 2013 & 2014!!! * You women out there should go to this shop. The respect you want, you will get. Bob takes his time in explaining everything out so you can understand what exactly needs to be done with your car and when you walk away feeling relieved and not stressed out. Bob will keep in contact with you throughout the whole process of repairing your car so as your not going to be stressed out in anyway of unnecessary repairs or not knowing what's going on with your vehicle. His shop is a 10 star in my rating.........!!!!! Thank you again, Bob!

My recent experience with Bob Waldschmidt and his crew at Automotive Enterprise was excellent. I caused a self-inflicted wound on my 2008 Acura RL backing out of a parking spot and sideswiping a pole that had sprung up - as they seem to once in a while. I had just changed car insurance companies and thought I wouldn't bother my new one with what looked like a $499 deductible special. Bob had done excellent insurance work on 2 of my cars back in the '90s, so I confidently went back to him. Unfortunately, I'd not only dented the rear quarter panel, but the seam between it and the bumper, and caused some scraping damage to the bumper as well. Bob said to give it the full treatment would run about $3,500. However, he contracts with a dent specialist, who looking at the damage, felt that he, with Bob's crew working the seam and bumper, could do a "90% repair" for around $1,500. Much better, considering the car is already 4 years old. Bob estimated 2 to 3 days, said he could start the next week, and hooked me up with a rental from Enterprise when I brought my car in the following Monday. The RL was ready in the 3 days promised, and thoroughly cleaned inside and out. The price estimate held firm, and all of us looking at the area agreed that they'd not achieved a 90% repair - but a 100% repair! Kudos and a strong recommendation for Bob Waldschmidt and Automotive Enterprise.

I have had two corvettes, the first of which I raced in stock class auto cross and amature road races so it was driven hard and suffered a lot of damage. Automotive Enterprise took care of the routine as well as the non-routine damage to that vechicle in a consistantly professional manner and was always able to meet my varied scheduleing and financial issues. For my second corvette, their service continues to be outstanding and their work remains top-notch

I have gone to Bob twice, both with smallish problems with side view mirror damage and a couple of big scratches and one dent in my older car. He and his crew are terrific and he is not snobby about fixing small damage, they do a good job and charge a very reasonable price. Both times I've thought I just wouldn't go elsewhere...ever. Excellent job with no "drama" and ready on time.

These people know how to handle insurance companies as well repairing vehicles properly.I have a 2006 Chevrolet Corvette that had major damage to the front end and l rear corner. I took my car to Automotive Enterprise on a Saturday.It was towed in.Within a week they had the insurance company paying for the repairs with no questions asked.The front secretary Dana was so helpfull with all including setting up a rental and communicating with the insurance company.

Bob Waldschmidt, the owner, explained the repair process and thru out the repair sent me e-mail photos of the progress of the repair.I really just sat back and let them handle everything.When the vehicle was done I recieved a call from Dana suggesting I pick up my car by simply dropping off the rental car at Automotive Enterprise and pick mine up.

My car is perfect and I am back on the road.I have wrecked cars before but have never been handled and treated this well in the past.I highly recommend this shop.
