I was quoted $600 for repair to my bumper prior to dropping off the vehicle.  I was told within 48 hours it would be done.  After 4 days went by, I called to find out what was going on, only to hear a cocky owner named Kerry Larkin telling me "look buddy, I need more time.  You need more work done on this car."  After asking what the story was, he beat around the bush and said he'd get back to me.  I said "before you do any more work, tell me what it's going to cost."  A week later, he calls me back to tell me my car is ready.  I go in thinking he took care of the problem keeping the price within the quoted $600, only to find this fat sweaty slob telling me it's $1,800!!!  I immediately flipped out!  Then he says, "I'm a business man, I'll take it in 3 payments if you want."  I then gave him 2 middle fingers, took my keys and peeled out with my car. 

I should've known the guy was a dirtbag from the start, because he flirted with my wife the whole time and even called my house asking for her!  What is that about?!  Don't do any business at this piece of crap garage!

Wow, it doesn't surpise me that I'm reading these reports on here about Kerry Larkin.  He tries to hit on every girl he sees.  I know because I used to work with him!  What a loser.

What a scumbag.

AUTHOR: james - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, October 08, 2012

Wow, good thing I read all these reports about this shop.  I was about to go get my car fixed there.  Now I know I will never go there to get my car fixed and I will spread the word around not to go there.  What a scam artist.  I will also suggest women not to go near this guy as he sounds like a pervert.

Best repair shop on the planet

AUTHOR: Lauren - (United States of America)

POSTED: Monday, August 20, 2012

I have been to Kerry's shop and so have many of my friends and family. Their work and customer service is nothing but excellent. Kerry is a perfectionist and his shop is clean and organized like no other. He takes pride in himself and his work and why someone would badger him and his reputation is beyond me. Like the first comment, it is very obvious that its something personal, maybe this someone should look at them self to find the real problem.

great people

AUTHOR: Alan - (United States of America)

POSTED: Sunday, September 04, 2011

I am a Ideal paint & body customer, I have been to Kerry's shop on numerous occassions, they fixed all my cars and I have recemended them to everyone I know that needs car repairs.
I also dealt with Kerry and his manager Jeff, they are both very knowlegable and professional.
They helped me with my deductable and the repairs where also perfect.
In response to the complaint, I think there must be something personal and Kerry sold his shop after over 20 years in business in 2008, not really sure how they could of worked on a 2010 like the complaint says.
