Impressive. Short-listed Continental given their several consistent online reviews from various sources and a clean BBB rating with no complaints. Called ahead to book an appointment, spoke to Darryl, who said to just come by they could fit me in straight away and provided me with good directions helpful during rush-hour traffic. First impressions were solid and lasting. Front of shop is immaculate neat, tidy and organized, and comfortable with windows clear to the back of the shop where the work is done. Immediately greeted and our vehicle examined straight away. Although just light rear end damage, Darryl went the extra mile by bringing our vehicle into their shop, spray washed it to provide a cleaner view of the damage, then invited me back to view it with him as he performed the inspection. Darryl shared that he has worked in the industry for years, formerly as an in-house appraiser for an insurer, now semi-retired. His shared insights and demonstrated know-how were interesting, relevant & impressive. Although their shop appeared to be running busy, I was taken in by how clean and organized it appeared. While there, I was introduced to the owner who also confirmed my earlier favorable impressions; both Darryl and Carmine appeared unassuming & modest, but were right on point with their transparency and the care that they demonstrated. It became evident that the standards they have in place have served them and their customers quite well. What really made the difference for me was not only receiving an estimate that surpassed any of the others that I had collected due to its thoroughness (+ 16 high def digital pictures); but also the impression that these fella’s stand solidly behind the customer in representing necessary repairs to your vehicle to the insurer. Although not on the list of repair shops given to us by our insurer, I feel confident in their steadfast concern for the customer’s satisfaction, their honesty and transparent nature, and very evident willingness to actively safeguard their shop’s reputation. Left with a solid impression that Continental European Auto Body is a finalist among a select few of potentials in Calgary that we had shortlisted to deliver on our vehicles repair.

Continental Auto Body is an excellent company for all of your auto body needs and has repaired our vehicle more than once resulting from a crash to scratches from being keyed! Carmine and Silvana operate this business in an organized, effective and professional manner. Their experience, whether it be advising customers in the front office, or experience in the auto body shop, cannot be surpassed. From the cost estimate to the completion of repairs, their experience is evident at every step. We have never been disappointed with their service. Continental Auto Body treats each customer with great respect and keeps you up to date about the schedule of your repairs. All work is professional and exceptional. It is very nice for us to know an auto body shop where we do not have to question estimates and we know that our vehicle will be returned in an excellent state. We are very pleased to rate Continental Auto Body with 5 Stars. We highly recommend Continental Auto Body for your own auto body needs.

My sisters 2006 Jetta was rusting and VW Canada covered the entire car and paid for Continentals labour and parts so our total cost was $0! I was expecting a shoddy job since its bodywork at no cost to us. But wow was I wrong! Everything looks factory and the car looks new again! They even repaired the rear bumper as my sister had backed into a truck and broke the clips for the bumper to attatch to the car, at no request from us and replaced other minor parts. They went so well above and beyond what they were expected to and we will be forever grateful. And along the way, they updated us on what exactly they were doing. This car has been given new life and my faith is restored in body shops from previous negative experiences. Thanks continental!

I Showed up at 8:00am. Darryl is super lively and friendly and instantly puts a smile on my face. I know Im at the right place. Getting 4 Broken Bolts removed and License plate reattached. I mention at drop off a rock chip on the rear gate if they had some white paint to dob on it. Touareg is ready when they said it would be, plate looks perfect. They threw in a nice little VW plate frame to clean up the look. Technician found and filled 2 rock chips, also cleans up the goo from the duct tape holding on the plate prior. He even came out to overview what he did with me when I picked it up. Service & Quality impeccable.

I was very fortunate when a friend recommended Continental European Auto Body. A friend who knows all about cars. This family run business is exceptional, the work done on my car was "First Class" as are the owners Carmine and Silvana, they are the salt of the earth people. They really care about you as a client not just the $$$$$. Their work shop is exceptionally clean not what one would expect for the kind of work they are doing. I would give them 10 stars but I can only give 5 full marks to this company keep up the good work and your very high standard of service. Thanks to both of you and your staff. August 2017

I would recommend Continental to any person in need of reliable auto body service for any car! In a family with lots of vehicles, weve had a fair amount of things that needed to be fixed, and they have always been handled with care and professionalism to a tee. Never have had any problems. Carmine has established a shop full of mechanics who all take pride in craftsmanship the same way he does! Aside from the actual auto body work, consider yourself in a better place by getting to know Carmine and Silvanna. Super genuine and caring people that you can count on! Thanks for taking care of us all of these years!

I had 16k worth of hail damage on my car and Continental did a top-notch job replacing and repair all the parts on my vehicle. Prior to the repair, there were complications that arose due to negligence of my insurance company. However, the team at Continental had my back through it all. I definitely recommend this autobody to anyone needing work done on their vehicle in Calgary. I have had nothing but a positive experience with this body shop so please give these guys the opportunity to show you what a quality job means! A special thank you to Carmine and Silvana! You guys are awesome! :)

I took my car in to fix $10k worth of hail damage. They not only fixed it faster than I was quoted for (took them just over two weeks when it was expected to take three), but also fixed a few paint chips extra at no cost. They were very kind about the whole thing and even showed the bumper they replaced to prove they did in fact perform the repairs as expected and correctly. Absolutely top notch quality repair and months down the road I havent noticed any issues whatsoever with the repairs they performed. Would recommend to anyone!

Nothing is too upscale or low scale for Silvana and Carmine! Everyone is respected and treated with professionalism and with dignity! Said with first hand experience and confidence, Continental Auto Body management and staff are exceptional and one of a kind! Attention to detail and perfection goes without saying! Thank you very much for all your help and excellent work and collaboration with Derek to make my car drive and look like new again! Job done with excellence and I highly recommend Continental Auto Body!
