History

Established in 1992.

Carty’s is a family owned and operated business. It was started by my father, my mother, my brother & me. My father also owned a Ford dealership body shop in Hollywood, CA. We grew up in the business and I returned to the family business after college. We started with 2 employees and have grown the business substantially since. Still owned by the famly and operated mainly by my brother and me. We strongly believe in training and having the right equipment. We had a computerized lazer frame measuring system before most shops even new they existed. And now we have 2. We have all of the necessary tools to do a proper repair. We have been spraying DuPont waterborne paint for one and a half years despite the fact that it was not required until this year. We are progressive and try to stay ahead of the curve on technology and repair processes. At Carty’s you get the best of both worlds: you are treated like family and receive the best repair that technology will provide.
