Just a shout out and thumbs up from me and who ever I've referred to these guys. This thread is well overdue. Instead of making a separate thread for each business, I'll just put it all into one. I put it in order of when I dealt with them. I'll try to keep it short.
Screamin' Paintworks
Both Dan & Dave are awesome guys to deal with, very helpful, and not to mention quick and reliable! I've been bringing my business to them for a while now and fortunate for them, but unfortunate for me, I've given them a lot more work (Have been involved in 3 not at fault car accidents in the past 6 months). Price is fair (Although, I haven't even got any quotes from any other bodyshop since I've started using them) and the quality of work is great. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Tinting Illusions
Jarod and Steve are also 2 great guys to do business with. I've brought them my gf's car, mine, and a couple referrals. They remembered me after just one visit. The story goes: I brought them my gf's civic to tint, initially I was only dealing with Jarod, but he was off the premises when I went to pick up the car, so Steve was there to take care of it, we had a small conversation, small enough that you'd think they wouldn't remember you considering how many customers they'll go through. A few weeks went by and it was time to schedule my vehicle in for tinting, and both Jarod and Steve remembered who I was after speaking with them over the phone separate times. To me, it positively shows something about their character. Pricing was also cheaper than any other place myself and my friends have checked out. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Renee, is a very outgoing person and a delight to talk to and get to know. She always has a smile on her face considering the dirty cars she has to clean on a daily basis, such as my gf's civic. Jeeze, the quality of work she produces is just, I don't even know what words to use. My gf recently purchased a 96 civic, it was pretty damn dirty inside that I suggested she get it detailed. I wasn't expecting the car to come back mint since it's a 14 year old car and it's probably stained to death but when we got it back the interior looked almost brand new. Granted there were stains that were not able to be removed completely but they are at the point where you don't really notice them. the seats were softer and more comfortable to sit in. and the rubber floor mats were cleaned to like-new that I thought she threw them in for free. My ride is in there now and I'm excited to see the results. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
So there you have it, my little review on these 3 companies. great work, even better owners! So for fuck sakes, if you see Renee on the side of the road, stop and help her out, fuckers! Thank you guys, and will continue throwing you guys business from myself and whoever else needs work in your line of expertise.
PLUS: An extra shout out to Urban Expressions South. I have not dealt with them, but can vouch for Renee's thumbs up to them because I was partly there that day. I was dropping my ride off to her place and I guess i got there in good timing because she just had got back from Urban Expressions South. Renee and I got to talking about the type of work needed on my ride, and before we knew it Renee's car was being dropped off to her. From what I remember, it took all about 45 minutes for Renee to drop off her car to them, put 2 new tires on and have the car dropped back off. That's something Renee forgot to mention in her thread here (http://forums.beyond.ca/st/307611/would-you-stop-to-help-someone-on-the-road/)
