Had a dent and HUGE scratch that several shops told me needed the quarter panel and bumper to be replaced and painted. Got several quotes between $1,200 and $1,500. Someone suggested I take it to Duke City Dent. They told me they could make it look moderately better for about $150 but weren't too optimistic. I opted to try it anyway and see how good they could get it. They did the work right then as I waited and an hour later I had my car back practically new! I couldn't believe what a great job they had done! They even took care of a BB gun dent some kid had put in the door. I just had to run to Pep Boys and buy some touch up paint for the minor paint damage they couldn't fix.

Dealt with Steve...stopped by so he could look at the dent, quote me a price and schedule me in. I showed up on time, cash in hand. They finished sooner than we expected. There's no longer any visible damage to my car. They saved me $600 based on a body shop bid.They have decent parking, easy access off San Mateo, a comfy couch in the waiting area, a clean restroom and a bunch of friendly guys working there. If that's not enough, they're located next door to the city's best Italian Deli/grocery and a fine bakery.This is a great alternative to a conventional body shop repair.

I was early for appt, they took me right in. I waited for it to be repaired and they made sure I was comfortable. I had my car for only 8 months and was bummed when it got a dent and dented scratch. They got it all out and it looks like new again, the price was right and I was so happy I can't say enough about how great of job they did.

So, my car's nearly 20 yrs old & some rude person backed into a door & didn't leave me a note! (BOO HISS!) Pretty much pushed 1\2 the door in. What to do?? Obviously, I don't want to spend a ton of money on a car of this age. HOWEVER, I don't want to drive around town in a car that looks like a wreck! Went on YELP, found Duke City Dent & went in. Got my front fender reattached (that was my fault!) & got estimate for door fix in less than a half hour. They fixed 90% of the door problem today -in a half hour, for $45! They couldn't make the part over some rod inside the door to look perfect again. Bottom line: if you need body fixes, go here for an estimate. They are friendly, fast, inexpensive, HONEST & extremely talented!!

Two years ago I purchased a new Subaru and over the past two years the guys at Duke City Dent have repaired at least four door dings on my car. The price has been around fifty bucks each time and only took about 30 minuets to repair. Each time the repairs were undetectable. Then a few weeks ago my car was pummeled by a hail storm. Literally every panel on the car had some damage on it. My insurance approved my taking it to Duke City and after three short days my car looks like it never left the dealers showroom. Their work was not good, it was perfection. I also greatly appreciated that my appointment time was honored especially when every hail damaged car in the area was lined up to get repaired as well. Also, I was told three days and it was done in three days. I can't recommend this shop more highly.

This place is amazing- I was responsible for a door-ding on my Wife's 2-week new car (that she hadn't noticed yet), and the Dealership sent me to a place that quoted more than 2200 bucks and several days to repair (standard- bang out, sand and repaint job). And after reading numerous positive reviews for Duke City, I decided to stop by- they quoted me a fraction of the "others" cost, and same-day repair- plus, they took me in two days later. The job took less than 2 hours, looking brand new!! Again...amazing place. Thanks!

I was recently caught in a hailstorm and my poor Jeep Grand Cherokee looked like a golf ball. I went to Duke City Dent and Ross did the estimate, submitted info to my insurance. We set a day to drop Jeep off and he advised 5 days to repair. Ross and his team finished a day early, It looks better than it ever did. All the gentlemen working there treat customers well. They all have genuine smiles, when they greet you. I get the feeling they enjoy their work and take pride in the quality of work. I highly recommend them. I will do business with them again. Forget the rest and go to the best! Five stars+

Great place to get your dents fixed that don't require painting. Very friendly and reasonable fees for the services performed. Can't even see where the dent was after they fixed it!

I'd be too embarrassed to describe how I received a slight dent on the right side just below the gas tank opening of my 2019 Subaru that I just bought in February 2022, but I'm so conscience of keeping my car in good like new condition, I was desperate to find a body repair. I read the reviews for Duke City, a stone's throw from my house, so I drove over, without an appointment. James looked at the impression and indicated that the best way to repair was to drill at the side opening of the door, to gain access. I was reluctant, wondering how the drill hole might be noticeable. Without any hesitation, James even used a suction tool to try to pull out the ding. After he showed me the plug that would not really be noticeable, I decided to go with his suggestion. He took my car in right away and after paying cash, it didn't break the bank, and the repair is like new - and I swear I am very stubborn about any imperfections. I would highly recommend Duke City Dent. They were the first people I turned to, and I will use them again - but hopefully, I won't have to.
