Customers frequently praise Fine Line Auto Body for its punctual repairs, transparent communication, and assistance with insurance claims. Many reviewers note that the shop handles bumper, paint, and panel work efficiently, often completing jobs faster than estimated and at reasonable prices compared to dealerships. However, a minority of low-rated reviews criticize the business for unexplained price increases, perceived deceptive billing practices, and instances of poor workmanship or rude staff interactions.

Great mechanic. Definitely will come here again. They did a high quality job, for a reasonable price. They even went above and beyond and cleaned a paint stain I had in my door without me asking for it. They did it just because they are nice and it was an easy clean. That says a lot about them and how the care to deliver great costumer service.

This is the third time I’ve used FineLine over the years. I could not be any happier with the service and attention that’s provided each time. I was kept in the loop and the work on my truck was done in a timely manner. I highly recommend.

Fine line auto body in Clintonville was incredible. Bill, Beth and the team were great from start to finish. Easy to talk to, kind, transparent, keep you updated on the repairs along the way, and make it very easy to deal with insurance, rental company, etc. I had an accident with some driver side damage and you would never guess after Bill and team fixed it. Even cleaned it from top to bottom. These guys are top notch and I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!
