After reading this blog post I visited Robert at Rowa and within 15 minutes of speaking with him, knew I could trust him. As a woman I’m always leery of mechanics trying to up-sell, but Robert did the exact opposite! He gave me a few options; gave me his suggestion, and an unbelievable price quote that was hundreds less than I’d anticipated. All this with a 2 day turnaround for the work!
After being pleased with the quote for my bumper I enquired about the cost to replace my windshield & thought why not ask about new tires too. Robert got me both-the windshield for far less than I would have paid at an auto glass repair (this is my second windshield in 2 years…cottage driving kills!), and new tires for my XTerra-that I’d already priced at $800+ installation & balancing-for less than the cost of the tires alone at other shops!
Robert is a down-to-earth businessman who actually “walks the talk”: customer service IS important to him and he genuinely cares about satisfying his customer.
I’ve already sang his praises at work & will continue to mention him to anyone who needs any auto body work done. From a simple bumper fix to a serious collision repair, Robert is someone you can leave your “baby” with & feel confident that the work will be done & your car will look like new again!
Thanks SO much for writing this post!! (I mentioned it to Robert & he appreciated your post too!). Mary

I just wanted to add, that after reading this blog post and the comments, I looked in to (among several others) Towne and Rowa.
A little background: I damaged a car that I bought within 20 minutes of owning it. Embarassing? Hell yes. Upsetting? Very much so.
Robert was the ONLY person out of all the ones that I spoke to who DID NOT tell me how “bad” the damage was. He reassured me that it was no big deal for him to repair like new. Everyone else from everywhere else went on and on about how it was a big deal.
On top of this, most other shops didn’t want to start working on it for several days, even though they were talking about how slow business is all around town. One wanted me to go to his friends shop, get a quote from him, and then come back so he could beat it. I did not enjoy any of my dealings prior to Robert.
As Robert looked over the damage, I could see him fixing it in his head. The other people, I saw them adding numbers up in their head. His focus was on me, the customer, and the resolution to my dilemma. Everyone else was focused on the business part of it.
Robert took the vehicle the same day after I ran some errands, and he gave me a lift home! He understood that I was in a rush. The vehicle went in on Thursday night and was done by Monday. Every other shop was telling me “maybe by next weekend” and were very upfront about when they don’t work. Robert, on the other hand, was very clear about doing whatever he hd to.
On top of all this, his price was over 20% lower than everywhere else.
Last but not least: The work was amazing! It’s in better condition than when I drove it off the used car lot.
I would highly reccomend that everyone who needs work done visit Robert.

I too visited Rowa after reading this blog and doing research for reviews, so I took my car in (back quarter panel damage from a parking lot hit and run). Robert gave a quote lower than the larger, high overhead shops, and I felt comfortable with him as a person. So, after a minor glitch that was fixed without cost above the quote, I am happy with the result, and recommend Rowa Auto Collision

After a front bumper replacement, I would go to Rowa for all the works. Rob is such an awesome guy, the repair went excellent and I would recommend him to all my friends. You can tell he really cares about the customer and will go the extra mile to get everything perfect. Just look around and you will find his price the lowest and service the best.

Well, I was orginally pointed to Robert’s shop by all these glowing reviews of his work. And I can honestly say I was not dissappointed. I found Robert to be extremely friendly, taking great pride in his work. I recently had my motorycle re-sprayed a custom diamond white and black, all of which where carefully selected along with a diamond pearlesent fleck, (nice touch Robert). His price was more than reasonable and he really went the extra mile, polishing the bolts, spraying the rims and even working with the local motorycle shop to source components. So to everyone reading these reviews, bear in mind Robert can do more than just body repairs and cars.
Thanks once again Robert.
I will pop around and show you the assembled bike as soon as the weather picks up……

When you meet Robert you will find a very sincere and caring person when it comes to doing work on your vehicle.
He is a jack of all trades and his workmanship is A-1.
I recently took a very rusted 2000 Cavalier Z24 to be fixed up and it came back looking like a brand new vehicle!!! The price was at least half of what other auto body shops would have charged me and the guys at Houghton Oil Spray (where I took my car to get sprayed right away like Robert said to do)were totally amazed at the paint job as well as the price! They told me I got an excellent deal and were quite interested in meeting Robert.
So I highly recommend Rowa Auto Collision and if I ever need a car to be “remodelled” again I will be back to see Robert!

Robert did an excellent job on fixing my Toyota RAV 4 (2007 model, black)! After a minor collision, I had to replace my front bumper as well as the headlight on the driver’s side. The fender on the driver’s side was also dented in which shifted the hood over. I brought the car in on a Friday and had it back by Monday. Robert even offered to drive me to school on Monday! I was really impressed with all the work that was done and you could definitely tell that a lot of care was taken in the repair and maintenance of the vehicle. Robert was also very thorough in his explanations.
After going around to get a few quotes from other auto body shops, Robert’s quote was by far the most reasonable (especially for a student!). I also had a few scratches on the side that ran the length of the car and was discouraged to get it repainted, but Robert said he could buff it out instead-a much cheaper alternative and not one that other auto body shops will tell you about- and now it looks as if nothing has touched it!
I highly recommend Rowa Auto Collision Repair and have told all my friends and family about it. Prompt and high quality service, great customer service, and all very reasonably priced
