I went in to have my truck painted and I was quoted a very very good price to have the entire truck painted after I had went to other places that wanted triple what I was quoted from econo just for the hood and fender..Doug the manager told me upfront it would be a good paint but not a perfect job and for $630(and a 3 year warranty)I knew that completely.. It was ready when Doug told me it would be which was 2.5 days and it was a major improvement over the way the truck looked before it painted.. If you need a vehicle painted for a few hundred dollars and understand its not a showroom paint job go see Doug and he will take good care of you.. I'm very happy with my results and will definitely go back if I need anything else painted..

They do an amazing job for not ALOT of cash. They do NOT accept checks or any type of credit/debit cards or any money transfer apps like CashApp though. It's strictly cash, money order or cashier's check! Chris is their new manager and is just great, makes it so easy to drop off and pickup your vehicle. And did I mention how. GREAT the finished products are?? UPDATE: It's been about a year now and the paint actually looks better now than it did then. I followed Chris' after painting care instructions to the letter and it's just incredible looking still!!

I was expecting a low quality even before taking my car there but not this, a lot of details car is not painted all the way, they painted my head light,fog light and leave a lot of black stains that won't come out, is a low quality but this paint smells like oil paint, just wanted to se the car with one color cus he was 2 colors but i pay to let him the same way. Yeah yeah is cheap but you expect a low quality material or paint, not a mediocre job with a cheap everything

First used them to paint my other car back in 2020 which they also did an excellent job on! These folks are good at what they do with a more than reasonable price. Tried Macco but they quoted me for 3 times as much money for a job similar quality or less. Keep the car waxed and your paint from this place will last and shine years later and I know that for a fact. This spot is the best bang for the buck in all of polk county. If you're looking for perfection you won't find it here. If you looking for a damn good paint job for an even better price, look no further. Econo gives you waaay more than you paid for..and they're quick to. 100% recommend these guys and will use them again. Unfortunately you can't please everyone because some people would even complain at perfection... don't believe the hype, Econo is worth your time!

September 2023 - While visiting our son in Winter Haven from Phoenix and driving a rental van and side swiped a post. Took the van to Econo Auto Painting. Their cost to repair was half of the shop across the street and they stayed late to get it done within 2 days in time for us to return the van back to Orlando airport on the way back out of town. Highly recommend Econo Auto Painting. The owner was super cool and easy to deal with! Thank you Econo Auto Painting!!! HouseOfPayne in Gilbert, AZ

Let's start with the fact that it is in Winter Haven. A bit of a drive I'm aware, but the quality of work is beyond excellent! It is phenomenal! And wait for it: fast too! Took the car in late afternoon Thursday and picked it up at 9:30 AM on Saturday. The staff is extremely nice, especially Doug and he gives you a fair estimate with reasonable expectations and a fantastic deal! Had a few dings and he took them out and painted my car in the exact color it was! They use a color matching system that the dealers use just the cost is waaaaaayyyyy lower! You won't be sorry if you take the trip and spend the night! Hey get an Uber to Legoland....you won't be sorry you did! Tell them Jennifer said hello....

Chris at econo is a blessing. Fantastic manager and the staff there puts their heart into their work and it shows. Happy customer and will be for life now. Chris was super helpful and a great guy to chat with. Very professional and friendly. The staff at econo is also the same and everyone was happy with a smile and not sour-faced like other places are. I will be telling my friends and family about my great experience here. There was an accident and a crack started on the fender and Chris informed me to bring it in and had it done just as fast as the initial paint job, and the best thing is it turned out perfect! Thank you Chris!

Good afternoon. Just took my jeep back for a repaint job. New Mgr, Adam, very nice said it needed to be done right. I had it professionally waxed and I had there top clear coat as well. Trust it will be a better job as i had it painted just this past April 27th 2025. Have a 3 yr warranty. I truly believe Adam will see that's its done better and that they will use their top clear coat. Met his boss, called him his side click which he chuckled at. I really want to write a great review when I get to pick the car up. Thanks guys.

Warning! Econo Auto Painting & Body Works (Winter Haven) is Under new management. The New manager just told my mother (and myself) that they won't stand behind the previous manager's promises to fix an obviously poorly applied paint that has been hand washed for a year out of cautiousness. You see when it was painted the first time a wind storm came up and blew dust onto a fresh paint job at their shop between layers so they had to redo it taking an additional 2 days to paint, so they asked us to be gentle on washing the van. "Yeah, if you had used a pressure washer it would have peeled off almost all of it" he admitted while acknowledging a laundry list of errors they made like painting the luggage racks on top and not properly priming the bumpers, but rather than standing up for their reputation he offered a slight discount to repair the problem areas... The reason: when my mother spoke to the previous manager a month ago, it was within warranty or within a week of the one year warranty* when he scheduled the repair, or at least we thought he scheduled it, because when we brought it in and had the discussion with the new manager the appointment was NOT on the calendar and the new manager said the reason he was there was "because of problems like the paint (that we received) and poor paperwork management" (like the failure to properly add us to the calendar). *We'd thought it was a 3 year warranty like the other car we had done at the same time (the 3rd car in 5yrs with them) and the new manager admitted it looked like we'd been charged for it in the receipt we provided with the paperwork we brought in, but because they don't keep records to look back on it was impossible for them to look up if it had been a simple error of using the wrong warranty sheet or not. We won't be paying them to fix their errors, I hope you don't use them and end up in the same situation. ***Update*** We were contacted by the Lakeland branch of Econo Paints who repainted the entire van, acknowledging that the previous paint job had not been applied correctly, nor were they happy with our treatment by the Winter Haven. They also corrected an issue with the other car we had painted at the same time.... ... All under the warranty the winter haven branch said didn't cover. I can't recommend the Lakeland branch of econo paints highly enough, so please take all your painting needs the short trip over to Lakeland Econo Paints!

I wasn't expecting a perfect paint job due to this being an affordable one but even then these guys did great work on my vehicle and exceeded my expectations. They fixed body damage in several areas which look so much better and they gave me new paint which looks fantastic. I had a little bit of run off on some plastic but nothing a little paint stripper on a rag won't take off. The guy at the front is very friendly and straight forward. Thanks econo!

Just few hours after picking up my freshly painted car... OK, let's be clear: with such a name ("econo paint") you should not expect ultra high end or concourse results, this is a pretty basic and economic solution to paint a car that got a light crash and used to have a lot of chips, dents, got a front bumper crash and 3 different tones of paint from a previous bad/wrong job paint (I bought this used car 3 years ago) and you want to be away from a damn insurance company that gives you the half of what's your coverage covers for repairs. In my case, with an Industrial Design degree (and after studying 3 years all types of paint techniques in almost any type of material and surfaces, plus a very sharp and trained eyes), you will find A LOT of wrong masking, very basic pre detailing and finishing details that only are acceptable from a principiant BUUUUT, again, I knew all this will happen and I will not take the car to win a car show, it is my beloved (and I mean: I REALLY LOVE my car) daily driver and I'm planning to keep it until it dismantle by itself after driven 1,000,000 miles with it. Chris the supervisor of the place, was a nice guy, I've asked him to change a little bit the color (to darker shade of yellow, used in 2012 by Jeep® on their Wrangler's line-up), he looked in the color mixing computer and he found it! and for a little price charge, he changed the color, and fixed 2 little bumps in the rear hatch and bumper and the results are satisfactory 👍 For around 500 $ (they only accept cash 💵 💵 for their payments) you can beat these guys, but you have to be aware of what will be the results, and what will be the future plans you have for your car. For me, the results are OK and I'm happy with it.

If you are looking for a complete vehicle paint job at a more than reasonable price, this is the place. They stand behind their work. I came in and asked for a complete vehicle painting plus some minor body work. Upon completion the body work was not as expected but Chris immediately agreed, no stress. He had my truck redone that far exceeded my expectations. It came out perfect. I cannot recommended this shop enough. Great Job and thank you very much Chris and your team Econo Paint, Winter Haven to made it happen. Photos show before and after.

Econo Auto Painting in Winter Haven did an outstanding job on my daughter’s Hyundai Elantra. We brought it in for a fresh red paint job, and it came out looking even better than we expected. The staff was professional and upfront, and he told me they’d rather over-deliver, which they definitely did. The turnaround was solid, the coverage was consistent, and the finish really pops in the sun. If you want a quality paint job at a fair price, I highly recommend Econo Auto Painting
