We Strive To Be The Finest Repair Facility Anywhere
Anthony’s Auto Craft has always been on the leading edge of repairing vehicles to the
standards of the manufacturers themselves. Anthony’s does not succumb to the typical
industry standard of becoming a DRP for Insurance companies as 99% of the industry
does. We instead work for our customers, not insurance companies, to repair our clients’
vehicles back to factory standards. The difference between Anthony’s and other shops is
we only recommend and promote factory (O.E.M.) parts rather than used or after-market
parts that could compromise trade in, or future value. We can only do this because
we are not contracted by insurance companies to be forced to use inferior parts, only the
original parts that maximize value and safety.
Anthony’s has always embraced manufacturer certifications that started in the early 2000’s,
that require special tooling and training that comes with these prestigious distinctions.
Anthony’s has achieved the latest level of accreditation with 12 of the world’s top vehicle
manufacturers, and is in the process with 4 more, to become the most-certified facility in
northern California. We achieve this level of excellence at a great cost to insure fit-and-
mantain, they are necessary to establish Anthony’s Auto Craft as one of the great Auto
Body shops in the country if not the world.
Anthony’s Auto Craft is the North Bays Finest Collision Repair Facility, and our motto has
always been and will always be:Quality Without Compromise.
Expert & Honest Service For Over 50 Years
We employ 35 people and continue to pay hourly salaries instead of succumbing to the commission pay structure which many of our competition has embraced to increase profit, only to diminish the quality of their product. We are a DRP for only one Insurance company which enables us to distance our selves from the conflict of interest that comes with the contractual commitments that insurance companies insist on, making the cost of repairs the number one importance. We are a Mercedes-Benz Certified Collision Repair Facility and are also Mercedes Elite Certified.
Approximately 17 years ago we became disillusioned with the typical industry training such as I-Car and moved to train directly with the manufactures such as Lexus and BMW which were offering such training at that time, knowing that the industry would eventually move to manufacture certified facilities to deal with the high technology we are now all familiar with. When Mercedes-Benz began their certification process we jumped at the chance to align ourselves with one of the world’s finest car makers.
We use Standox Paints Waterborne Line which we spay in one of our three new Blowtherm equipped booths. We are equipped with both Car-o-liner, Globaljig, and Cellette frame systems. For spot welding, MIG & TIG welding needs we employ an overhead Pro-spot and Weilander & Schill and Miller for both aluminum and steel. We utilize Mitchell’s ABSE Program for repair orders, scheduling of parts and vehicles, and tracking profitability, and we use Ultramate exclusively for estimating.
We have a concierge service for all of the North Bay Area, Napa, and the city of San Francisco. We will pick-up and deliver your damaged vehicle, and will bring one of our rental vehicles to you to simplify the process of having your vehicle repaired after an accident. We are one of the five founding shops of the California Repair Association, CRA, and have met directly with numerous Senators and the Insurance Commissioner of the State of California to draft legislation for consumer and collision repairer’s rights. Our corporate headquarters are proudly located in the City of San Rafael.
