Barney helped replace a mirror that was broken on my car. He was super friendly and gave a great price! I would definitely recommend going here if you need to get anything done.
I went in with a bumper that was detached and slightly broken. They were able to fix it and another issue in about 20 minutes. Since it was so quick, they didnt charge me at all. Not sure how many other mechanics/body work guys would do that, while also being helpful along the way. I also went in for a previous issue that they handled quickly, professionally and did a great job. Cant rate this place high enough.
After my first visit at Barneys body shop I had a gut feeling this is where I was going to be leaving my truck to get the work done. Jim took the time to walk me through the work required and then walk me through the estimate. But as any good consumer I proceeded to get 3 other estimates and still I knew where I wanted the work done. Picked up the truck today as promised it was completed and looks brand new.I would recommend Barneys body shop every time. Fairness, quality of work, timeliness, there is no better... thanks again!
Excellent service and great quality. Jim is the best in the business.
Has some slight noticeable body damage to my car after a under the table fender bender. I needed some repairs to my wheel and rear bumper( I was holding my bumper on with duck tape😫)( could have been worse though) I brought it here. the service and prices were great. The owner is really nice and works with you on repairs. Got my car back in a few days and it looked as if nothing really happened/not noticeable) I would recommend this mechanic for repairs. The guy is great. He’s got himself a life long customer! 😄
Brought my bmw in for paint after a large scratch. The paint job done by Barney’s is 100% perfect. The price was also the cheapest from quotes gathered by 2 other competing shops.
From the moment I stepped into the shop, I was treated like family. Jimmy was very knowledgable and kept it real and honest. Once the part came in and we scheduled a time, the repair got done pretty quickly and I couldnt recommend him enough!
I couldnt be happier with the service I received at Barneys Body Shop. Someone backed into my car and I needed a door replaced on my 2017 Honda CR-V. The service was quick, exactly the cost of the estimate and as a plus the customer service I received was phenomenal. As a young woman, with this being my first car, and with no one besides me to advocate for myself, I was apprehensive going to a Body Shop and worried that I would be treated poorly. However, I was treated with nothing but respect, courtesy and was spoken to like an equal. The owner even went out of his way to show me his car once he realised I enjoyed talking about cars. I would recommend this place to anyone.
I found this place in Victorian Village after getting a $900 estimate from another body shop, that my mechanic uncle though was unnecessary. They came back and quoted me $80 and a 30 minute repair. I gave them all the opportunities to look for more damage because I was in DISBELIEF! That the issue and repair was that much smaller! Jimmy stayed communicative and honest and super respectful and even did a little extra work for the 80 bucks! It was quick and fabulous and I highly recommend! Thanks a bunch!
My car was vandalized and the passenger side window/trim was completely destroyed. Decided to walk into Barneys and Jim took a look at the damage and gave me a quote in (literally) 5 minutes.Price was unbeatable, so i told him to go ahead and order the replacement parts. When the parts came in he gave me a call and I dropped the car off - 2 hours later the car was fixed and ready to pick up looking brand new.Definitely my most positive experience with an auto body shop and I highly recommend taking your vehicle here. Jim is a good guy who clearly has a ton of experience and passion for his job and his shop.
Barney is passionate about what he does, very friendly, knowledgeable and well priced. Definitely recommend him. He replaced my busted side view mirror quickly and affordably!
I recently had someone back into my car in the driveway and damage the hood. I got three estimates. Two were from well-known body shops/dealer body shops in the Sawmill area. $2300 and $3000. Both told me the cost would likely be higher because the frame was probably damaged. (I have 5mph bumpers and knew this wasnt the case.) They wanted to repaint the entire front end of the car for paint match and replace a lot of undamaged parts.I came home and Googled small body shop in Columbus and found Barneys, a family-owned business. I stopped by Barneys and told Jim, the owner, I was price conscious. Just as I told the other three body shops. Jim told me he thought he could bend the hood back because the damage was minimal. Otherwise, a new hood and paint would be $700. A far cry from the other estimates. I dropped the car off at the time he requested. Two hours later Jim called and said the car was finished. He was able to bend the hood back and it cost me $75. Not a typo. Visually you can see no imperfections.The body shop business is run by the corporate mafia. The overcharging and inflated estimates are everywhere. These corporate shops want big claims from insurance. And, society pays in the form of higher insurance premiums. No one cares because everyone is making money except the customer.Ive had this experience more than once. The whole concept of an individually-owned business where the owner does right by doing good and builds a business based on his integrity certainly isnt reflected by the corporations ruining this industry.This was one of the most decent and ethical things anyone has done for me in a long time. All future references and business will be going to Barneys Body Shop.
I went to Barney’s to get my horn fixed after my car had been stolen and crashed. I thought it would have to leave my car at the shop for a couple of days, but once the parts were in, it was fixed within an hour. I went in, expecting to be treated like a woman usually does in any male-dominated industry. However, I was very wrong and received the friendliest and most professional service I’ve ever gotten at a shop. I 100% recommend going to Barney’s for whatever bodywork your car needs it’s professional, good quality work that won’t drill a hole in your pocket.
I’ve been to Barney’s twice and every time he always give me very fair price and suggestions on how to fix my car. This time he saved me a couple hundreds dollars on my bumper again! I would definitely recommend his shop to my friends. Now I am moving to upper Arlington soon but if my car needs some fix in the future I’ll definitely come back again!
Had an amazing experience with Barneys. After receiving a $2,000 estimate elsewhere to fix a scrape on my rear bumper (from being rear ended), I took it here looking for a lower estimate, prepared to sacrifice quality for a lower cost. This was NOT the case.This place does AMAZING work for a great value! I can barely even tell my car had been in an accident. I am so so grateful to Barneys AND they got it done quickly.
Fixed my tail light within minutes! Amazing service would come here anytime.
He is a awesome guy and very honest fix my back bump and front with the original parts. Love this guy
I had some damage to my car that I was paying out of pocket, and after taking it to 4 different shops, they gave me by far the best price! When it was done, my car looked brand new - he even washed and vacuumed the whole car. Great service, thank you so much!
A truck rear ended my car. I found Barneys on the BBB website where it is A+ rated and BBB accredited. Barneys worked well with my insurance company, did high quality work in a reasonable amount of time, was helpful and communicated well with me. I would not hesitate to use him again or recommend him to a friend!
STOP! If you are looking on google for a repair or body shop and are confused where to go, STOP SEARCHING. This guy is amazing!! Honest, reasonable, and amazingly quick. A repair to my car door that I thought would cost me at least $1500 out of pocket ended up being a third of that!! Literally repaired immediately after the door came in and put back my high end speakers etc. He did the job perfectly, beyond anything I was expecting for that price. I am so happy!!!
I went this afternoon because my bumper was falling off. I was in and out in about $15 and Jim (the representative of the shop I met with) was a great guy! Would absolutely recommend this place to others who need work done!
Great experience at Barneys Body Shop. Very professional and straight to the point. Other shops will try to sell you on more expensive options to save themselves time and effort but at Barneys you get a direct straightforward set of options with upfront pricing. If youre on a budget but dont want to sacrifice quality, go to Barneys Body Shop.
Best place in Columbus. My daughter got into a fender bender 11-20-19 while visiting a friend in Columbus. Front tire was scrapping against fender and there was no way she could have drove home to Cleveland. I googled body shops close to where she was at and found this place with 5 stars. Called owner and he said bring it by asap. He was able to move fender/wheel well lining out of the way and secured everything in place. DIDNT EVEN CHARGE HER! I called him back and thanked him and his crew for helping us when we were really in need. Ordered a couple of pizzas and cookies from Dominos and had it sent over right away as a token of our appreciation. This guy is a real sweet heart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please support his business as he is doing good for the community.
Excellent work and turn around time.
I had a minor accident on my 2000 4 Runner where one of my front wheels was rubbing against the fender, and these guys saved me from having to label my perfectly running car as totaled through insurance. They were able to get things bent correctly back in place to stop the rubbing, and I was back on the road in less than 24 hours. They saved me a huge hassle and potentially an unexpected car purchase. Moreover, they saved me a lot of time and money. Thank you so much!
Quick, efficient, affordable, received exactly what was agreed upon and paid for.
I stopped in to get a quote for a scuff on my truck, ready to pay a few hundred bucks. The guy took a rag to it, and the underlying damage was minimal. Took two minutes to get a lifelong customer. He was super nice, and didn’t charge me despite being ready to pay. Will definitely be back, this place is a gem hidden in the Short North.
Im work for a local CompanyCalledPaint Supply GuysI visited the shop to see if it was anythingThat are company could help to improve their service being that we are a mobile store and automotive paint supplierWe try to make it easierso our body shop guys dont have to go anywhere we deliver everything they need and I never heard anything from the company they never got back with me I did like their environment and I wish them the best of success
Great Work, price and nicest people you can find in Columbus! I simply wont go anywhere else. No up selling or other sneaky stuff---They are fast, friendly, honest and have years in the business! Thanks so much for always doing great work! I have recommend many people to them and all have had a great experience!
It is with utmost pleasure that I recommend doing business with Barney’s Auto Body Shop. A large truck reversed into my vehicle causing damage to the front bumper, hood, and fender. I took it to a few body shops around Columbus before going to Barney’s Body Shop, where Jim immediately reviewed the vehicle and ensured me that it could be fixed.I needed the car to be done in five days so I could leave town, and even though the repair was more than five days worth of work, Jim was able to prioritize my job to ensure that it got done on time. He also touched up the entire car, fixing scratches, small color splotches, and dents around the car. For this repair, the opposing party’s insurance was refusing to pay for a rental car over the weekend since I dropped it off at Barney’s on a Friday. Jim talked to the adjuster and ultimately worked with me to convince her to authorize the rental for the weekend!When I came back five days later to pick up the car, it looked like it was new! The quality of work was excellent, and the service was outstanding. Barney’s has everything to make your repair experience pleasant - a nice staff, very fair pricing, time efficiency, and high quality work. If you need any body work done on your car, look no further than Barney’s Body Shop.
I got into a fender bender today, and I am so glad I came into this little auto shop. I always get scared when getting auto-work done that mechanics will take advantage of the fact I know little about cars and overcharge me, but the worker at Barneys was super kind. He explained what the cost would be to replace my bumber and the estimated timeline for the fix. When I decided I was going to wait on fixing it untill I got home for spring break, he helped me pin-up my car and make it drive-able for the time-being (FOR FREE!). I highly recommend Barneys and plan to go back there if I ever need mechanic work in the area.
Family owned and run, Jim (the owner and grandson of the original owner) is an incredible guy who goes out of his way to take care of his customers and get their car back on the road in a timely manner. For example, yesterday he stayed an hour and a half after close (on a Friday mind you!) so that I wouldn’t be without my car over the weekend, and then he even hand washed it after finishing! His prices are fair and honestly, he’s just a wonderful overall human being, who will treat you as such, a human being, not just another customer like most auto repair places. Dealing with insurance companies can be a nightmare, Jim helps take a way the headache. Thank you sincerely and keep it up Jim!
Great responsiveness. Got work done two days early. Fantastic experience.
Very friendly workers who are willing to help! They quickly got me a quote and clearly explained what needed to be fixed. I highly recommend their services!
He knows his job.
Awesome and friendly staff who tell it to you straight. Extremely trustworthy with great prices.
Best body shop in town! The quality service you get by taking your car here is unbeatable. Jim the owner is fantastic and does a great job when checking your car out if you’ve been in an accident or need some dent or collision repair!
Did a fantastic job repairing the front end of my vehicle after an accident. Was able to work with my insurance agency and get my car done quickly. Highly recommend.
Really nice guy and went above and beyond to get my truck looking new again!
Got my passenger door fixed after someone backed into it, they fixed it quicker than expected and even fixed my sticky driver door free of charge. Did a great job!
I cant say enough good things about Barney and his shop. He worked with my tight time line and the work was fantastic. Great small shop right in the short north area. Highly recommend.
Don’t hesitate bringing your car to Barney’s for an estimate. Fast friendly service. High quality work. By far the best body shop in Columbus OH. Stop wasting your time and money at the larger body shops.
Work gets done on time and promptly. Very professional and nice. Good if you are on a budget!
The work and guys working there go over everything with you and explain why things need to be replaced the end result left me speechless on how great my car was it looked showroom new they really take the time for all the small details if I ever am in the cloumbus area again in need of a body shop Barneys is where Ill be going
Very easy and trustworthy. Jimmy is awesome. Would highly recommend Barney’s
Quick, friendly, and good pricing! What more could I ask for. Loved ‘em.
I never leave reviews, but I got my front bumper pulled off by a curb and Barneys was the closest body shop to me. They not only were extremely friendly, but had me fixed up DURING MY LUNCH BREAK, and was incredibly affordable. None of the typical mechanic upsell stuff either. Simple. Ill definitely be going back for any automotive needs.
Been there a few times with fleet vehicleand personal car. Great workmanshipCrash
Great service WELL recommended.
Amazing work! Cant tell the car was ever worked on. Highly recommend taking your car here.
Great service and friendly, responsive staff. I would definitely use Barneys again and recommend it to my friends.
Fantastic job, extremely helpful
Great work and friendly people.
Theyre great!
