The people are great. The quality and care of the repair work is not great. The people (great) did address issues after the first work was done, but my car ended up with new flaws that it not did not have when I delivered it to be worked on…. Interior piece of back door is not well sealed the way it was when I took it to be worked on, and a big mess of black glue is now on the interior. Also, the exterior was very dusty when I left in my car, so much dust on the windshield that it was a challenge to see good. The people were great with regards to communication and extremely helpful with insurance and getting a rental car. Don’t expect the excellence of the people in the office to equate to excellent collision work on the car.

I took my truck into Richard Karr Collision due to a "parking lot" door ding on my truck bed. Mr. Berger did a great job coordinating the repair and keeping me updated. They had my truck in/out the next day. Not only did they fix the ding it went in for, they fixed another ding near it before painting the side of the bed. Looks fantastic!

Got my son’s car repaired at Richard Carr collision center & Matthew & all the staff were very kind and informative. They did a great job with the repairs and made sure we got our car back in a timely manner. Thank you for making this experience swift and easy for us!

My vehicle was recently involved in a collisions in April 2025 and Richard Karr was a number one recommendation that someone gave me. The customer care given by them definitely exceeded my expectations. Upon receiving my vehicle back after about a month off which I gladly didn’t mind the waiting. The results of my vehicle were flawless. My vehicle looked as though it had never been in that collision. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves! Thank you Richard Karr I’ll definitely be a returning customer if something was to ever happen to my vehicle again!

Highly recommend! It's been a pleasure working with Donnie. Communication was great! I've had work done here years ago and returned due to the amazing service and work provided. Unfortunately this time my vehicle was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. Choose this place for your collision needs, you'll be in great hands.

4.5 ⭐️ Work looks amazing. Communication was a breeze with choice via text or phone call. Donnie was pretty good at communicating updates after an initial delay. It caused the job to take longer than initially planned. Our vehicle had unique features that needed inspection. I will definitely use Richard Karr again.

Very frustrating experience with Richard Karr Collision. It was taking so long, we came and picked up our car before it was complete. Vehicle was towed in on 4/25. Delay, delay, delay. The vehicle was not assessed until 5/28. Did not start work until 6-5. Pulled the vehicle on 6/24 because it was still not complete 2 months after receipt on a $8K repair. They did a good job settling up financially, or it would be a one-star review.

This place is a nightmare for other businesses. They were fast, friendly. They brought my car back to beautiful after the “professional” transporter tore it up. If you want great service, go see Richard Karr Collision!

I’ve done business with Richard Karr on several occasions. This review is my most recent experience. I dropped my car off on a Monday for some minor body work. It was my understanding that it would only take 3-4 days, so I should have gotten it back on Wednesday or Thursday. I had heard nothing by Thursday, so I called them I was told they’d get back to me. On Friday, I called again. And was that the point told that the wrong part had shipped for the second time (they didn’t bother updating me when the wrong part was shipped the first time), but they thought it might come in “anytime”. To make a long story short, it took 11 days to get my car back. Communication was better during the second week. Not sure how much of the delay was their fault, but the communication is lacking.

Had my new car for one month and driver hit us rear end. Took it to Richard Karr collision, Larry handled my claim with great professionalism in a timely manner. It looks new again thank you Larry.

They fixed my rear end on a very difficult color (Mazda Soul Red Crystal). The clear coat ended up needing a respray (which they took care of promptly). After that, it looked great. Color isn't a 100% flawless match, but it's as good as can be expected considering the circumstances. It certainly was not a cheap job, but they made sure it was up to my standards & came through with quality.

Very satisfied. Everyone was very helpful throughout the process. I hope I don’t have to, but if I did need their help, I would definitely use Richard Karr Collision again. Special recognition to Donnie. Very kind and helpful.

I had some work done here and had to bring it back due to the job not being done right the first time. The original job took days to complete so I had to pay for a rental car during that time. Its frustrating having to take it back and take off work which cost more me more money that was unnecessary. The Blond girl that worked behind the counter offered no smile or friendly greeting and acted like she hated her job. On top of all that this place has a sign that by being on their property you give up your constitutional 2nd amendment. I would think twice about supporting this business.

The attention Donnie gave to my unique situation was amazing. He kept me up to date and was in contact with every change. The work was done on time and the car looked perfect. I would trust him with any future needs.

Richard Karr Collision is top notch. Their work is second to none, and they are excellent communicators, keeping you up to date on your vehicle repairs. They are also experts at hail damage repair. They are the only body shop I use.
