Daniele’s Classic Auto Body

Make no mistake! Daniele’s Classic Auto Body is a 5 star Auto Body Shop with 5 Star Folks!!!
Last week I backed into my chain link fence and tore my bumper… It was ugly!
My bumper needed replacing or so I was told.
I went to two auto body shops in Sonoma and they both quoted me exorbitant estimates and said that the bumper could not be repaired and needed to be replaced.
We found Daniele’s on line. They have really great write ups, and we said let’s try them.
Immediately when I spoke with Deana, I felt assured that I had found the right place.
When I walked in the door and met Deana and Tim I felt like I came home.
Wicked nice people! Down to earth, professional, good sense of humor and honest!!!
Tim took a look at my bumper immediately.
He said, I think this can be repaired!
He printed out a photo of my car, showed me area to be repaired and asked if I had the broken missing piece.
He gave me a quote that was a lot less than what had been quoted to me by the other body shops.
My bumper was fixed in less than half an hour.
My bumper looked great. You would have never known!!!
They are more than worth the few extra minutes to the other side of town and worth their weight in gold.
I work in Sonoma and my company employs a significant amount of people in Sonoma and you can bet that every single one of them will know about Daniele’s!!!
Thank you! Gracias! Vielen Danke! Merci! Gracie!
You now have a forever customer!

I have used Daniele’s twice to repair my car and both times I could not have been happier with their service. They are honest and look out for my best interest. Highly recommend them.

What a bunch of great people! My mom backed into my truck. I took it to 4 places to get a quote. 1 person told me I’d need to replace the whole side panel (3K$) because there was no way someone could smooth it out enough to look decent. I took it to Daniele’s and felt I was not getting taken advantage of. After I was told I’d need another side panel from another local body shop, I called Daniele’s to explain to me why their way would be better. Fred did not hesitate to explain the process and explain to me that he has some great guys working for him and that he trusted completely.
Daniele’s did an awesome job and to this day I can not ever tell it was ever hit. I highly recommend them!

It is never a good thing if you have to take your new car into an auto body shop. With that being said the experience was exceptional. Deanna was great and helped me understand the process every step of the way. My car came back looking as good as new!

Fred has always done a great job on 5 of my cars. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. G&C is moving into town and I would recommend to anyone to work with Fred first. He has I always been fair and has done quality work.

Five Stars! I was passing through Sonoma while visiting family when my accident happened. I was given a recommendation from the towing company because I had to leave my car in Sonoma while I returned home. I was a little uneasy about doing that but Daniele’s kept me informed at every step. I received daily e-​mail alerts and phone calls on the progress of the work. My car is 15 years old and the goal was to see how long I could keep it going. Over the years my car was with me through many happy and sad life events and I was heartbroken when I thought it was totaled. I was delighted when Daniele’s said they could fix it and you should see it now. It looks better than ever! I really can’t believe how great it looks and runs! The service was great and they even delivered it to my home while I was in the hospital. I would definitely recommend Daniele’s.

Never even heard of these guys until I got tail-​ended on Arnold Dr and her insurance suggested them for a local shop.
Fred the owner came out to look at the car which had pretty minor damage and told me he could get it all done in 2 days. He also noted that my headlights were fogged over and told me to remind him when I brought it back so he could take care of them. I needed some work done on my front spoiler unrelated to the accident and he gave me a quote of $ 200 if I removed it myself which I did.
Deanna in the front office arranged for my Hertz car rental to be dropped off at their shop on the scheduled day and when I arrived it was waiting for me. She did the walk around with me and 3 minutes later I was on my way.
True to Fred’s word the car was done in two days. The work he did on both parts of the car looked great and my car was spotlessly clean. These guys are a class act and totally understand customer service. I paid for my front spoiler as it was not part of the insurance claim and there was not extra charge for the work Fred did on removing the fog from both my headlamps.
It is so refreshing into today’s business world to come across a quality family owned business such as Daniele’s. While I hope that I won’t have need for their services again as a result of an accident, I highly recommend them to anyone needing auto body work or painting. Five stars all the way.

This is absolutely the best place to bring your car for body repair. Daniel’s gives great customer service and not only do they perform expert repairs, my car was cleaner inside and out than when I left it. I’ve used this company a number of times and would not go to anyone else. Thanks for a great job Fred.

Great customer service. In fact, the best I’ve had in ages! My bumper repair was done super fast and it looks great. Would highly recommend these guys to anyone!

Three weeks after getting a new car, someone backed into me in a parking lot. Daniele’s was not only local, but had great reviews too. I did not think twice about heading out to the shop to see what my next steps were as this was my first accident. Fred came out and gave the estimate and noticed I had tar from road work on my way to the shop, he offered to have the car detailed even if I was not to chose his shop for repairs. The repairs took one day. The bumper was replaced with an oem bumper. They even painted over a scratch on one of the splash guards! The paint was spot on and the car looks like new. Definitely a 5 star review. If you are looking for a shop that is not only fast, but spot on with the finished product, I truly recommend Daniele’s!

My parents have always taken their cars here and years later we are still taking our cars. The people their are awesome from the receptionist to the auto-​body team! Had a minor fender bender about 2 months ago on my 08 BMW and they dealt with my insurance and they picked me up when it was done and they took me to work when I dropped it off. A+ auto body!

I had a car repaired at Danielle’s about a year ago… a pretty minor scraped side. They did a perfect job smoothing out the damage and matching the paint. When I went to pick it up, I was delighted to find they’d buffed out my faded colored rear bumper (uninvolved in the original accident) at no charge! I was pretty impressed… but nothing like what they did today. I brought in my Honda Accord for an estimate on a badly dinged front bumper. Another place had quoted a $ 900 repair cost. The guy at Danielle’s inspected the damage, walked to the back of the shop, and brought out what looked like a portable hair dryer. He heated up the plastic bumper, popped out the ding, buffed the light scratches nearby, and applied some touch-​up paint to the small area where the paint had been scraped off. Then he said, «Have a nice day!» No charge!!! Needless to say, they’ve earned my undying loyalty. Any future repairs are theirs!

So a few weeks ago we took my car to get it detailed for my birthday to someone locally. Just cleaned and waxed was all we discussed. When I first bought my car there were some scratches on the driver side door. They never really bugged me so I never mentioned them. You could imagine our surprise when the car came back with paint all over it. He tried to surprise us by touching up the paint. but it was in the WRONG color. Shocked we didn’t know what to do, we asked him to remove it and it came back like the top two pictures. We ended up taking it to Daniele’s Classic Auto Body off Broadway and I wanted to say they did an amazing job. They repainted my entire left side at a great price and matched the paint perfectly. Customer service was amazing. Really nice guys. My car actually looks brand new. I nearly cried of happiness, I am so happy to have my car back! Thanks guys!

I am fairly new to Sonoma and was looking for a reasonably priced yet good quality body shop to take care of my paint work on some of my classic and newer cars. To test the waters, I gave Daniel some body parts/​trim pieces of my G 55 to repaint. and he did not hesitate to take on a small job like this to help me out. Unlike most body shop owners, Daniel did not have chip on his shoulder and was very pleasant to talk to and work with. He also did a great job in a timely fashion for a fair price. As soon as I find the time, I will be bringing some cars for full paint and body work.

Each time I look in my garage at my «new» 10 year old Lexus, I think fondly of the Danieles and the fine body work they do. They not only did perfect work on my car, but accommodated my schedule without complaint. The work was extensive and all aspects of it were top grade. Give them a chance to impress you with their fine work Perfect work and a fare price, What’s not to like about that?.

Consistently the VERY BEST… there is no better place to take your car. Fred and his staff are honest, professional friendly and delightful. they do extraordinary work… i have been bringing my injured cars to Fred for 20+ years and would never go anywhere else. this shoppe deserves 10 stars!

Someone hit me. I needed to get my car fixed.
Fred and Dianna were very nice and got me all set up quickly with a loaner. I got my car back and it looked better then when I bought it! Very quick service and nice people. They did a stellar job. All my neighbors say the car looks perfect now.

I have always had Daniele’s repair my cars when I have needed repairs. This is a wonderful family-​owned business and like a previous review stated, ‘The service is like stepping back into time”. The honesty, the friendliness of staff, the sincerity of Fred and Danielle, the way they go out of their way for you, the whole nine yards. I have been in Sonoma for 35 years and have never gone to anyone else but Daniele’s, because no one could ever come close to the service and the great job they have always provided! Thank you Fred and Danielle and staff for a great job well done!

Timely, honest and impeccable service. Nice and accommodating staff. I am very satisfied. Thank you.

I have had a couple unfortunate accidents in the last year, but boy, Daniele’s sure has done some beautiful work.
Not only have they restored my dinged up Audi to showroom quality, but the service is so efficient, smart and easy to work with. The owner Fred Daniele does your fair estimate and gives you the feeling that your car is in good hands.
Very recommended
