  Most shady and unprofessional experience of my life. I purchased a vehicle online with a 7 day full refund policy, when it was delivered I noticed scratches on the paint and areas of previous body work where the paint was dull compared to the paint surrounding it. I took it to Parrish to get a quote to fix all the issues and they gave me a $1500 quote which I sent to the seller who in turn agreed to, and sent Parrish a check. Upon a closer look at the quote I noticed some of the issues we discussed were not included so I took it back in for 2nd quote to fix the issues not included in the first quote, we went over every inch of the car and the quote came out to an additional $830 which the seller agreed to, and sent another check to Parrish. So I schedule work, sign the paperwork, and drop off my vehicle on the agreed date. The next day I get a call saying "actually the work is going to be a lot more expensive than quoted and we don't have the time to do it because we have a lot of insurance contracts to do..." So at this point my 7 day return window for the vehicle has passed and I'm left holding the bag because I relied on this shady company to hold up their end of a written agreement they provided and changed their mind on after inspecting the vehicle twice and receiving full payment. I have never left a negative review for a company in my life but this one really takes the cake so I figured I should try to warn people.

  Didn't actually have body work done since my vehicle wound up being totaled. However, the people are awesome and just being there, it is apparent that customers really appreciate their work. It would be my first choice in town.

  Great job on my F150. From what I understand the new aluminum body panels are tricky to work with. They did a great job. As far as I can tell it doesn't look like there was ever a repair.

  I had to get an estimate to have my passenger door repainted after a problem with a door magnet sticking to it. I was recommended to them by my mechanic. I went on for the quote. I was told I would have the quote in my email the next day. I had to keep calling them and after 4 weeks the company never sent it. They said they would resend it but they never did. I ended up not being able to get my car repaired because the magnet company told me it took to long.
  I would not recommend this company to anyone. Very unreliable. Maybe because it was a small project, I don't know. I would not do business with them. Unreliable is the best word to describe them!

  Positive experience! Well, never fun when having to have car repaired, but Parrish Body Shop made it bearable. The body work came out great. I would not take my car anywhere else!

  Parish Body Shop just completed the repairs on our vehicle, which had a front impact with a deer, and a person rear-ended us at a stop light, both within a couple days, but thankfully both accidents were not serious. In any case, Parish dealt with our insurance, as well as the person who rear-ended our vehicle, and took care of everything. In regards to the vehicle, the actual repairs were more extensive, and they worked with the insurance to take care of the expense. Their work is professional, their staff are polite and capable, and I would recommend Parish for your auto-body issues. This is the second car we have taken to Parish, about 12 years apart, and their work is consistently professional and detail oriented. I am a big proponent of working with local businesses that are family owned and operated, and I know that I am supporting our local economy, rather than some big corporation that is only about the cash. I feel they went the distance, and their work is first class! Thanks Parish (Dave).

  Excellent experience from start to finish. I did not have collision insurance on my auto, so my insurance claims adjuster apologized after she gave me the repair quote because my policy would not cover the claim. She then asked me if I had selected a body shop yet. After I told her that I usually use Parrish, she confirmed my choice, saying that Parrish was a great choice because they always performed top notch service and that the price would probably be below her quote. She was correct in every point. Parrish saved me a considerable amount of money and the service was both professional and friendly. My car was completed ahead of schedule and the quality of work was fantastic. With that type of reputation among the insurance claims adjusters and my recent experience, I would not hesitate in recommending Parrish Body Shop to all of my friends.
