I found out about Mike's when a neighbor inadvertently swiped my car, and her insurance company put me in touch with them. When I went to pick it up, I was exceedingly happy with the job- the car looked brand new! The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because the inside of the car smelled horribly of paint and chemicals, and the front two windows had stains running down their length. I had to drive home (thankfully it was summer) with the windows open, and because I live in a condo, I could not leave the windows open as my unit does not look out on my car. So it took a few days

I had a fantastic experience with this body shop. My car needed a good bit if work but they completed the work quickly and with great care! They cleaned it afterwards and were so helpful with calls and updates about the state of the car. Will definitely go here again next time my car needs work done!

Great place I’ve had them work on two of my vehicles. One repair was a couple years ago it was ~$500 dollars of body damage. Couldn’t even tell it had ever been hit in a parking lot. Most recently I had ~$10k dollars worth of repairs done after I was rear ended at ~35 mph. Excellent work it took a little longer than expected due to back ordered parts because of COVID but all delays were clearly communicated to me. Friendly office staff. One of the individuals who was performing the repairs even took his time out to go over the work to be done and addressed my concerns before the repairs even

If you are looking for a Mechanic who will tell you the truth, charge a fair amount, and complete expert repairs, then this is the place to go. I have had my car repaired here twice. Mike always does excellent work and goes above and beyond to provide excellent customer service. I plan to buy my next used vehicle from here too.

Got rear ended in my 2016 f-150 on the interstate. Luckily my truck is lifted so nothing to bad but I looked around for a reliable body and shop and man this place did not disappoint. The ladies at the front were so nice and everything was easy to setup. Dropped my truck off and got updates every few days via text. In a week and a half my bumper was brand spanking new. Definitely has the family owned vibe there. Would definitely recommend.

Can’t say enough about this place. I had some work done on my Forester when someone backed into my parked car a year ago. Like them so much that I just took my other car there last week to have the rear bumper replaced, on my own dime this time. The work is impeccable, fast, and priced fairly. The front desk staff is so friendly and accommodating, and great at keeping up communication throughout the process. (Thanks for everything, Sam!)
I’ll never go anywhere else in Hampton Roads for body work, this place is amazing.

** Update** I had to use Mike's again for damage on the front end of my vehicle. Once again the services was excellent, the cost could not be beat and my vehicle was returned back to me quickly good as new. As much as I like Mike's and Carla, I hope to not be back for awhile.
I needed the back tailgate of my vehicle repaired. Carla gave me a fair and accurate estimate. The work was completed on time and my tailgate looks as good as new. To make things even better, my vehicle was cleaned inside and out so there was no more evidence of the accident. I'll use them again and highly recommend them

I took my 2014 Ford F150 Lariat to Mike's after I ran into a concrete pole on the front driver's side. His Team did excellent work repairing and repainting the affected areas. The work was done timely, the staff was very friendly and they communicated with me throughout. My truck looks great! Thanks, Kent A.

Superb professional work!! After incurring two very small dings on the driver's door of my Porsche Cayman, I sought the assistance of Mike's to restore it to perfection. Glad that I did. Due to their small size, Justin advised me the repair could be completed with a bit of buffing and use of a "dent puller." The result was perfect with absolutely no indication there had ever been any problem. This is a team that really cares about delivering satisfaction at a reasonable price. Friendly and professional...highly recommended!!

I recently had a fender bender and took my car to Mike's Paint and Body Shop for repairs. I had several people recommend this business, and I was not disappointed!!!! The entire staff was so efficient, friendly, and accommodating. My bumper looks brand new, and after a total car wash inside and out, my car looks super! Although I truly hope I never have to have car repair again, should I, I would not hesitate to return.
Thanks to all who made my car beautiful again.

I'd give Mike's Paint & Body more stars if I could. After a small accident, they were able to get me into the shop quickly and fix my car. The two ladies in the office are super friendly and helpful. When picking up my car, it was washed and vacuumed, which I didn't expect. I would definitely recommend.
Keep up the great work and customer service Mike's Paint & Body!

Slam dunk! I'm holding my 5 star review and updating only because I want others to be aware they are still an excellent choice in Virginia Beach to have auto body work done.
My car had minor body repair completed over two days. The process from estimate to work completed was flawless. Body shop manager Andy continues his excellent leadership of the shop. I also met owner Mike for the first time.
Body shops are notorious for being unprofessional, so when ya find a great one you share. Mike's Paint & Body with locations at the Beach and Chesapeake has consistently proved to me they

I whole heartedly recommend Mike's Paint and Body.
After an accident I reviewed all the body shop options USAA offered and Mike's far and away had the best reviews of any listed.
Got set up for an estimate quickly. Laura did a quick but thorough and professional job of doing the estimate. She knew exactly what she was looking at and what would be required. She took her data to her office and in about 5 minutes I had a complete itemized estimate.
Due to the age/value of the car USAA wanted to total it. I said no and
the insurance company paid me. I gave Mike's the go ahead explaining

We found these guys on Yelp when someone hit our vehicle and did some cosmetic damage. Everyone was professional, helpful and nice. They were clear and precise about the repairs and associated costs. We felt no pressure to choose them for this job.
We brought it to Mike's just before the 4th of July weekend last year. We had arranged with a separate company for a rental vehicle to be there when we dropped off our minivan but the rental place over booked and our family was left without a vehicle over the holiday weekend as the repairs were not scheduled to be completed until the following

I've gone to Mike's twice in the last few years. Once for a cracked windshield and once after a coworker backed into my car in our employee parking lot. Both times Andy walked me through the process of dealing with insurance, the estimate, and the actual fixes. Jen, who works at the front desk, helped me set up my appointments and kept me in the loop about progress. Everyone at the shop was professional, polite, organized, and respectful. They're the only shop I recommend to friends looking for paint and/or body work on their vehicles. MIKE'S IS THE BEST!

These guys are awesome!!! Ever since they inducted my vehicle, they were just a pleasure to work with. They updated once a week as they made progress. It did take longer than they initially quoted but there was a big rain storm, holiday, and they came across something else that needed to be replaced. Overall I am too happy with their work and customer service. The receptionist is too sweet and, I think it might've been Mike himself, was just so polite and friendly. And they cover all of their work for the life of my ownership of it.

No one likes having their car wrecked or hit. I was really upset that my Hyundai Accent got hit by someone else while parked in a garage earlier last month. I immediately started doing research and Mikes came up with the best reviews. From the start of calling them til the pickup of my finished car, everything was extremely organized and easy. There is no doubt that they know what their doing and want to make it as easy as possible for their customers. I can honestly say that this was the "best" part of having my car damaged.
Andy was so down to earth and friendly. I never once felt

My car needed fairly significant repairs after it was side-swiped. I chose Mike's based off the reviews here and my insurance company's recommendation. I couldn't be happier with my decision.
Customer service was fantastic and I was kept informed throughout the entire repair process. Car looked better than new when they were done.
Its hard to find a solid body shop, but Mike's is definitely the way to go. You will not be disappointed.
