OUR SERVICES

Whether it’s a simple scratch or dent in your paint or a major frame repair you can rely on us to put our top quality tools, equipment, and training to good use. Locally owned and operated in Lynden Wa and serving all surrounding towns in Whatcom County including Blaine, Ferndale, Everson, Sumas, Nooksack, and Bellingham.
PANEL REPAIR & REPLACEMENT
From bumper to bumper, we handle all panel replacements in house. Whether bolted, welded, or fused we provide a focus on proper fit, finish, and function. We ensure your vehicle is back to or better than pre-accident condition when your vehicle is returned to you.
FRAME & AIR BAGS
Vehicles continue to become more and more advanced and in turn more complex and complicated. Nowadays even the windshield of most cars is vital for the strength of a car in the event of an accident. Charlie’s Auto Body monitors industry trends and OEM recommendations closely when it comes to repairing the frame, uni-body, and SRS systems of your vehicle.
REFINISHING
A perfect paint job is built on a long list of proper and precise preparation. From our prep work to the buffing and our SATA spray guns to the Glasuirt paint line, we combine the best equipment, products, and experience available to achieve a factory replica finish. You can rest easy with our 59 years of experience behind your paint job.
ESTIMATING
It’s likely an estimate is the first impression you will receive from us and we want to ensure that impression is good. Charlie’s Auto Body writes full and accurate estimates for the damages that are visible at the time of inspection and we even give you an idea of what to expect from hidden damages. Our estimators are experienced, thorough, and compassionate. It’s our specialty to make sure you are as knowledgeable and comfortable with the damages and repairs as possible.
INSURANCE PROCESSING
Let us help take away some of the burden of dealing with an insurance company. With a claim number and contact information we can thoroughly process most of your claim. From submitting your estimate and photos, to negotiating repair cost, checking rental car coverage, direct billing supplements, and submitting final bills, we’ll spend the time to ensure you stay stress free.
RENTAL VEHICLE SETUP
One of the biggest inconveniences of an auto collision is being without a car. That’s why we’ve partnered up with two of the largest rental car providers in the area. We can set you up for a rental to meet at our facility the day you come for repairs. Also, when the repairs are complete, simply park the rental at our shop and drive away in your own professionally repaired car.
