Over 80 Years of Doing the Right Thing.
Find six (6) auto body shops offering collision repair services in Indianapolis, Avon, Zionsville and Greenwood.
Church Brothers Collision Repair was founded in 1929 by brothers Noel and Clem Church. The business was made successful by Dan and Rhonda Hall after Dan purchased the business in 1972.
The original shop was located on Kentucky Avenue in Downtown Indianapolis. Much has changed in the last 80 years, but the company still succeeds by working off its original principles of Excellent Customer Service, High Quality Repairs and Fair Pricing. The business is still family owned and operated (3 generations later) and has grown to 6 convenient locations, all in the Indianapolis metropolitan area.
Our Lifetime Warranty has not changed and you won't find an expiration date on work from Church Brothers.
If your car was fixed in 1929 or 2009, it is still covered by our Satisfaction Guarantee for as long as you own your car.
Everything was handled smoothly re: coordinating with insurance, scheduling, keeping me informed of progress, finding the least expensive acceptable solution, etc. The dent damage was totally fixed and there are no indications that they had parts of the car apart to get access.
Description of Work: Did hail dent repair (insured) and a couple of other non-related items for which I paid.

They were very professional and worked very well with the insurance company. There were no hazels for me. I was provided a rental car which was good because it took a very long time. They were good and the vehicle looks great. They always got back to me.

I chose not to pursue any work with them because of the way that I was treated. I just felt like they were not about me as a customer, like they did not work to make a positive impression or anything. I disliked our interaction. I felt very rushed. Whenever they went outside to look at the vehicle, he asked me what insurance I had, and I told him. He automatically told me that it was a waste of his time. So, it was just like one of those things where it is like that should not have anything to do with the way that you treat me because I am there to spend my money. It was just a big frustration. I would say that their prices are really high and that you need to be aware that you may not have a good interaction with their staff.

Took my car to Church Brothers Collision Repair, LLC. I had an accident and needed some body work done on my car. They had to replace the door panel's, rear fender. I felt bad for the technicians, it was summer time and they had to work in the heat. They were very polite and did beautiful a job, looks brand new.

Went very well. I am confident I chose the right place to get my car repaired
Description of Work: Church Brothers provided a detailed estimated of the work to be done. Explained the difference, though slight, in the new paint of the damaged area of the car with that of the rest of the car. They got my car in and repaired according to the estimate provided by the repair specialist. Actual cost was about $200 less than the estimate.

I left work early to make a 3pm appointment. I arrived around 3:01. I parked in the estimate bay and informed the receptionist that I was there for my 3pm appointment. I was asked to have a seat in the waiting area. After 15 minutes of listening to 3 employees yap at the front desk a 2nd customer pulls in and I overhear him say he had a 3pm appointment too. I'd brought several vehicles to Church Brothers in the past...so maybe a new customer was more important than an old one.
Description of Work: The services performed included setting an appointment for 3pm today, making me wait over 20minutes for an estimate when no other cars were present, then snubbing me for the other customer who had only been waiting 3-4 minutes.

At our insurance representatives recommendation we got our estimate from Church Bros. That part of it went well and the estimate was just over $ 1,000. However they have a waiting room for their customers with a tv. The tv is tuned to a cable news channel that has a strong political bent. While their customers wait, they must listen to political jargon that may be offensive to many. But the thing that bothered us was that they put a sign next to the tv saying that "this tv only works on one channel". In other words, "you will listen to our political channel if you want to do business with us". After getting the estimate, the experience led us to look for another option (otherwise, we would have automatically had Church Bros do the work). We found another company on Angie's List that was family owned with no political statement being made and their estimate was a little less. We had a terrific experience with the other company. We don't care what people believe politically or otherwise but if they throw it in our face when we want to do business with them, we'll find another option----so that's what we did!
Description of Work: We needed to have our car repaired after a dumpster was blown into it. The insurance company suggested that we get the estimate from Church Bros.

My car got backed into during a hit and run, and while there wasn't a lot of damage, I wanted to make sure all was okay. The front grill of my car was cracked, and I was afraid I'd have to replace it. I took it into Church Brothers, and they opened my hood, popped out the grill, and fixed it all up. Then the didn't charge me anything! Told me that it was a simple fix, and if I wanted to spend a bunch of money for a new grill, they'd order it, but told me it wasn't necessary. So nice to have a car repair service who doesn't try to con you into spending money you don't want to spend! They were professional and courteous, and I will definitely be back.

Sadly, my car rear ended another vehicle. Churchs estimated all work to be done and ultimately State Farm decided to total the 2001 BMW convertible. I was most pleasantly surprised to receive an email at the end of each day for 2 weeks with a status update on what had been accomplished that day. In particular, Aaron McGinn was extremely nice and very professional in all dealings . I would use them again -- I sincerely hope I never have to. At other Body shops -- I never knew what was happening or when to expect information. The continual information flow was very helpful in a very stressful situation.
Description of Work: Sadly, my car rear ended another vehicle. The BMW was towed to Churches with extensive front end damage. My car went under a FORD SUV. They diagnosed the problems and then worked with State Farm to decide how to proceed. I received a daily email to update the progress. State Farm decided to total the car. Aaron McGinn was the service manager I dealt with and he was wonderful.

The first visit went very well when we started. I was rear ended by another car and I went in for an estimate for the insurance company. They ordered the parts which was a rear bumper and was suppose to be a rear bottom spoiler bumper. The insurance company wouldnt pay for the 2nd bumper until the tried to re-use that one. I understood but the problem was after this. When I dropped it off I had asked for a quote also for the scartched up front nose piece. Then I went to pick it up, I could fit my finger between the 2 bumpers. I also could see the glue from the tape. They also pointed out the hail damage I had on the hood and roof. I called y insurance company who came out and said they would cover it. When I called back to have them schedule a date they said they would fix the back bumper. I asked that they fix the bumper first because I knew it would be an issue. It took them 4 weeks to have the insurance company call me and then told me it was my fault. I informed them it was their problem because they were paid to fix it and it wasnt fixed. They said they were sorry but there was a mix up. Finally got both bumpers looking good (again I asked for a quote to fix the front bumper-never got one). Then to the hail damage. The bill was a little over $3k dollars. I pointed out the other things I wanted taken care of and was told they would take care of it. I was told it would be 4 days to fix and I got a rental car. It was fixed in 2 days and I was out of town with the rental which cost 3 days of paying for the rental (only about $30 extra). Then I picked it up and it looked HORRIBLE. Yes the dents were out but they left it looking like a mess. I called back and asked why for $3000 it didn't look better. I explained that I was told it would 4 days and it took less but the price wasn't cheaper. I just told them for that price I expected my car to come out looking sharp-cleaned and polished and sparkling. They told me I didnt pay them any money, my insurance paid. Well they didnt realize that my agent is my father in law. I guess he wont be sending anymore business to them and I wont either. All I expected was for between the 2 jobs being almost $5k that my car would have been waxed and cleaned up when they did body work. Of the front bumper that I asked pricing for never got quoted so I had someone else take care of it and they did a lot better job.
Description of Work: First work was done Feb 2012 and then June 2012 for 2 different problems.

The Church Bros. location in Greenwood did an excellent job for us, again! They are professional, prompt, fairly-priced, and our car looks like it was never in an accident. I don't typically write a review, but felt this firm deserves support for a job well done. I highly recommend this firm, and would not think of going anywhere else in the future.
Description of Work: We used , for the second time this year, the Church Bros. location in Greenwood. Took our car in for an estimate, without appointment, and had the estimate within the hour. Our insurance company, State Farm, considers Church Bros. reputable, and therefore did not require us to get more thatn just this one estimate, which is very convenient. Church Bros. scheduled our car to be repaired. We took the car in on a Monday morning, and picked up a rental car right on their premises, as they have an Enterprise facility on-site. The car was repaired on time, and the work done was impecible. We would highly recommend this auto repair facility to family and friends!

I brought my vehicle into Church brothers downtown because I know the previous GM of that location, and was told that was one of the better church brothers locations around. When I dropped the vehicle off, I was told that they would order the appropricate parts needed and that the estimated completion date would be 4 days. I understand what estimated means, but when you say estimated 4 days, it should not turn into almost 2 weeks. I told the employee to order the parts through a certain dealership, and to tell them they were for me and they would be shipped overnight. The employee didn't listen, therefore I had to wait almost 2 weeks for the work to be completed.(this caused me the sale of the vehicle i might add because I was over promised a completion date.) When I finally picked the vehicle up, it seemed like they had just forgot about the details, and did not do a good job of going over their work before I saw the car. The paint was very bad. I stood 10 feet back and pointed out the orange peel. The window wouldn't roll up because they hadn't aligned it, and it would jump off track. They did a very poor job of blending the paint, and on a black car when this happens its very noticeable. They had burned the clear coat from trying to buff the paint. Again, very noticeable on a black car. To say the least I was not happy. So they kept the vehicle and attempted to fix all the flaws that they overlooked. Why should I have ever been called to tell me my vehicle was completed if it was not even close? It seemed very easy for them to collect the check though!

I brought my car in to repair some minor scrapes and paint transfers on my car. Church Brothers buffed out the unwanted paint and put touch up paint over the small spots to make a quick repair. Best of all, they did so at no charge! Of course, they did buy me as a loyal customer that way, so any body work I ever need to have done will be taken to Church Brothers.

Church Bros. made appointment and inspected the car immediately. We were able to drive it to them. Did the job in about a day less than estimated, despite wet weather. Assured us that all work is guaranteed. Fortunately we did not have any issues. Found and took care of some damage not immediately visible.
Description of Work: Had to repair damage to a brand new car. They took care of it quickly, handled all the paperwork, as expected. As this was a new car, they were able to match the paint. It is a special, rare color so their ability to deal with all manufacturers to get the right color was excellent. I do not know if there prices are higher or lower than might be available in a smaller shop because Church Bros. is part of our insurance company's recommended vendors. They were also able to schedule the job more quickly than others. It helped that their Zionsville location was close and that Enterprise was almost right next door.
