Rate and Review De Colores Paint & Bodyshops

Henry, the owner, is amazing. De Colores rates 10 stars on a scale of one to five! We have been going to him for years -- both for work under insurance coverage and for small jobs (aka, anything under the $1K deductible). The work is the same: fast, reliable and high quality. Henry is so kind and his people are first rate. My wife drives a wheelchair lift van. It is a very expensive and delicate vehicle. Dozens of repair shops, dealerships and oil change places have either messed it up or refused to serve us because of the modifications on this unique piece of equipment. When we were in a fender bender, we took it directly to Henry. His De Colores staff handled the van gently and expertly and had my wife on the road in no time. Thank goodness De Colores is very close to my house. But I would take my automobiles there if I lived as far away as Broward or the Upper Keys. Henry is also great at understanding your needs. One time, when my wife was out on unpaid leave for surgery and I was also on extended unpaid leave to care for her, I dinged up the bumper a little. I went to Henry and explained that I didn't need the perfect repair with the perfect parts -- that I could only afford a "poor man's" fix of pushing bumper back in place, fixing a couple clips that hold it there and doing minor painting. He understood our financial situation and even did the work in 24 hours. When I got my sedan back, it looked like the top flight job was done on the poor man's budget. I cannot say enough good things about this operation. Henry also is super involved in the community. He seeks no publicity, but has supported dozens of your sports and other causes. He also is developing a program to train you people in body work, estimating and related services. I only wish Henry could create a De Colores home repair, plumbing, electrician and other services -- because everything he and his crew does is on time, on budget and guaranteed.
