Auto Body Repairs That Keep You Driving Safely
When your car’s taken a hit, it’s not just about dents and scratches, it’s about making sure you’re safe, your car’s reliable, and you’ve got that peace of mind back. At Uptown Automotive in Houston, we handle professional collision repairs that go beyond the surface. From small fender benders to major accidents, our skilled crew treats every repair like it’s their own car, paying attention to every little detail.
We use top-of-the-line tools and proven techniques to fix dents, straighten frames, swap out damaged panels, and blend new paint perfectly with the old. Our mission? To get your car back to pre-accident shape, or better, so you can drive away confident it’s as safe and sharp-looking as ever.
Here’s a look at how we restore your car step by step:
1. Thorough Inspection and Estimate
It all starts with a detailed look at the damage, inside and out. We catch problems you might not see, explain exactly what’s wrong, and build a repair plan that fits your situation. Then we coordinate with your insurance so everything moves forward smoothly.
2. Disassembly and Frame Analysis
Next up, we take apart the damaged sections and use digital tools to check your frame’s alignment. If it’s off even slightly, we’ll realign it to factory specs, no shortcuts here.
3. Structural and Mechanical Repairs
If the frame, suspension, or other mechanical parts are affected, we fix those first. We straighten, replace, and test everything to make sure it’s structurally sound and drives just like it should.
4. Body Repairs and Prep Work
Our team then tackles dents, fixes panels, sands, fills, and shapes the body so it matches the original contours. This prep is crucial for getting that smooth, flawless finish.
5. Painting and Sealing
With a color-matching system, we blend new paint with your existing finish. Multiple coats of paint and clear sealer go on, then we bake it all for a tough, long-lasting finish that looks like nothing ever happened.
6. Reassembly and Detailing
Once painted, we put everything back together, test all systems, and detail your car inside and out. By the time we’re done, it’s spotless and ready to turn heads again.
7. Final Quality Check
Before you get behind the wheel, we run a final multi-point inspection to make sure it all meets our standards, and yours.

Kara Mings
Professional, high quality bodywork, ease of scheduling, vehicle repaired when promised, competitive pricing, and amazing staff in the office, mechanics, or the body shop. I highly recommend Uptown Automotive.
Aarij Rahman
Would rate more than 5 stars if I could. Professional, friendly, communicative. Got me out in time even given a time crunch on my end and a delay on a special order custom bumper. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent work from the whole staff. Laura was great to work with and always willing to help. Will definitely use them again if needed.
Liz Majeski
I just had my oil changed here and couldn’t have had a better experience. My boyfriend was working nights so I was able to drop off my car before opening hours which was super convenient and the staff accommodated a late pickup as well on a Saturday! So glad I found this place and would happily use them again. We will be bringing my boyfriend’s car here now as well.
