Proudly recognized as a top-rated auto repair shop on Google with a stellar 5-star rating.
Thank you to Brad, Chad, and the entire team at Livingston Collision for the outstanding service! They carefully assessed the damage to our car, guided us through dealing with the insurance company, and made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier. The final result was excellent. I highly recommend Livingston Collision!
After a deer strike, I took my car to Livingston Collision on the recommendation of Jake's Car Care in West Orange. I could not be happier. Brad and the folks here did an incredible job repairing our Sienna to pre-strike condition. The work is meticulous, and the entire time we felt fully cared for. While I hope to never have to come here again, I will without hesitation return should I ever need further body work on my car.
Additionally, Brad provided ample hands-on assistance to us while we were working through the insurance claim process. I cannot recommend Livingston Collision highly enough.

I had an excellent experience with Livingston collision center from start to finish. Brad, RJ, Chad and the rest of the team took great care in repairing my car and made what could have been a stressful situation feel smooth and manageable.
What really stood out was how helpful they were in navigating the insurance process. They walked me through each step, answered all my questions, and made sure everything was handled properly without added stress on my end.
The quality of the repair work was outstanding, my car looks as good as new and the team made sure it was all OEM parts. The team was professional, attentive, and clearly committed to customer satisfaction. I truly appreciated their communication and dedication throughout the entire process.

Exceptional! Quality of work was top notch. A local shop with competent and friendly faces, paired with professionalism and a total price less than what they had quoted. High-five to the team.
Had to get the molding above the tire of a Honda CRV replaced. Rich Paris took a look and gave me a honest estimate. He ordered the part and it was replaced the next day for a price that was lower than the initial estimate!!
Definitely recommended.

I took my husband’s car out last night when I wasn’t supposed to… and ended up with two flat tires. Spencer was amazing—he showed up within 10 minutes in his tow truck and handled everything. Total lifesaver!
Incredible service
Not only did they do an excellent job with the physical repairs of my vehicle.
They went above and beyond with helping me deal with the at fault insurance company and giving me the best way to navigate with a post accident insurance claim.

One of the hottest days this week I needed road side assistance. From the initial call to when Clint arrived was less than 15 minutes. They treated my issue with urgency and efficiently and got me up and running in time for school pick up. Clint was professional and I'm so appreciative!
Took my car to Livingston Collision for repair after an accident. Wow what a great staff and service. I recommend them as top notch, experienced, honest and professional. What a team they have from the front office to the mechanics. Car was redone and white glove perfect when I picked it up. Car looks mint. As good as new. Very satisfied and very happy. Please if you need car repairs after an accident go to Livingston Collision.
Just got my car back from Livingston Collision, and they did an awesome job. The repair was flawless, and they had it done quicker than expected. Great service, and super easy to work with. Highly recommend!
I am new to the area. When I hit a deer and needed a reputable body shop, Livingston Collision was recommended to me.
From the first phone call, they have provided unparalleled customer service. They kept in constant contact, answered all my questions, helped me manage the insurance company, extended hours for my convenience, and gave me back my car in showroom condition. I could not recommend Livingston Collision more. I will be a lifelong customer.

Livingston Collision did an amazing job on my 1983 280ZX Turbo 5 speed (in mint condition). It was an old school repair that required extensive expertise..
I purchased the car about 40 years ago and have garaged and babied it since acquisition. When it was one year old in 1984, a lawn chair in my garage fell on the hood. It was a traumatic experience. I brought my car to Livingston Collision and Gene (the principal of Livingston Collision who since has passed away) replaced the hood and did a wonderful job. I recently had some work done to the car at another shop and somehow the hood got out of alignment. I decided to go back to Livingston Collision to have them see if it was possible to readjust the hood. I met with JR (who is Gene’s son) and explained that back in 1984 his dad had replaced the car hood. JR was wonderful to work with and he spent the time to explain the problem and the solution to the repair.
When I went back to the shop a few hours later, the car was outside and the hood was sitting in the closed position perfectly aligned. I believe that the repair took talent as this was done by hand with several fine adjustments to get it just right. More of an art than a science that only an experienced auto body technician could do. JR was wonderful to work with. I have used Livingston Collision a few years ago to replace a bumper on my Volvo from a minor accident. They did a great job then and a wonderful job now.

I have been a happy customer of Livingston Collision for many years. Their work is superb. I just had my wife’s car in. JR could not have been nicer. This was always the case with his parents Jean and Valerie as well. Besides performing superior work, any customer can be assured they are dealing with people of great honesty and integrity. Unfortunately this does not always occur in the auto body business. I highly recommend this business. You will not be disappointed.
Thank you Livingston Collision! They care about quality service with the customer and the car. Had an accident and my car was returned to me cleaner and in better shape than I left it! They went above and beyond. I Recommend 100%
Livingston Collision is the only place I have used for vehicle body work for more than 30 years. They are great people and completely trustworthy. They help you navigate your insurance company to get the best outcome. The quality of work is excellent and they stand by it if something goes awry later. I wouldn't think of going elsewhere and strongly recommend Livingston Collision.
