Atlas Auto Body

Atlas Auto Body describes itself on its home page as "your trusted collision center in Revere, MA. When you're in an accident that involves fixing the frame, mechanics, or even the paint, our shop has the tools and technicians to handle the job." The page states: "Since 1983 we have been providing auto repair services in the area," and the services page describes "almost 40 years of experience and servicing more than 2,000 vehicles every year."

On how it operates, the home page says: "Vehicle owners enjoy bringing their cars to us because our owners are onsite and we can provide a personal, hands-on approach that you can't get at a dealership's service center." The contact page describes the business as a small business that provides collision repair services to more than 2,000 vehicles every year and has "relationships with our customers that large dealerships cannot provide."

Atlas Auto Body is a collision center at 1605 North Shore Rd, Revere, MA 02151. The services page lists these services: auto body collision repair, custom painting, fender and dent repair, windshield repair, and frame straightening. Mechanical work is also listed as a service in the site navigation and page descriptions, though the site publishes no further detail about what mechanical work covers.

On collision repair, the shop states: "We specialize in auto body collision repair at Atlas Auto Body. If your vehicle was in an accident, we will work with you and your insurance company to repair it." For custom painting, the page says paint damage from an accident, a fender bender, or a shopping cart is repaired by paint professionals, and that "We use the latest computerized technology to match the paint perfectly every time." For fender and dent repair, the shop says it has the tools to restore the fender or dented area back to its original shape. For windshield repair, the page says certified technicians will restore a windshield cracked in an accident or by a kicked-up rock to the vehicle manufacturer's standards. For frame straightening, the page says a bent frame does not always mean a vehicle is totaled, and that with a high-tech computerized measuring system the shop will assess the damage and restore damaged frames to factory tolerances.

Atlas Auto Body is located at 1605 North Shore Rd, Revere, MA 02151. That address is the only location published on the site; no other branches, and no list of towns or areas served beyond Revere, MA, appears anywhere on the pages.

The phone number is 781-284-1200 and the email address is customerservice@atlasautobody.com. The contact page also carries a web form with fields for name, phone, email, and a message, and notes: "Messages sent using this form are NOT confidential. Avoid sending highly confidential information or private information through this system."

Atlas Auto Body publishes no prices, price list, rates, hourly labor rate, or fees anywhere on its website. There is no cost figure for collision repair, painting, dent repair, windshield repair, or frame straightening, and no deductible or minimum charge is stated. The site also does not say anywhere whether an estimate is free or whether a charge applies to it, so nobody should be told a free estimate is offered until the shop confirms that itself.

What the site does say about estimates concerns insurance estimates. The FAQ answers "Do you accept estimates from insurance companies?" with: "Yes! We accept all insurance company estimates. Repairs may include taking the vehicle apart to examine all external and internal damage. Once the damage is determined, we then notify the insurance company to inspect your vehicle with the appraiser."

Atlas Auto Body describes itself as "an Assured Performance Network Certified collision repair shop in Revere, MA." The manufacturer certifications page states: "Being certified, we guarantee that we will meet or exceed OE standards for tools, equipment, training, and facilities required to repair your vehicle to manufacturer specifications." The same page says the team "is comprised of highly trained professionals that know how to properly care for the vehicles that come through the center." The services page repeats the Assured Performance Network certification and says it "guarantees that you are receiving the best service and value to ensure the finish, durability, and safety of your vehicle." The home page states more generally: "We have many certifications and are recommended by numerous insurance companies."

The certifications page displays a wall of manufacturer logos rather than a written list. The logos identified on that page include Acura, Buick, Cadillac, Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Infiniti, Jeep, Kia, Lincoln, Nissan, Porsche, Toyota, and MOPAR. The page does not spell out in text which certification applies to which brand, or the scope or expiry of any of them, so the shop should be asked directly at 781-284-1200 to confirm certification for a specific make or model. No certificate numbers, licence numbers, or registration numbers are published on the site. Vehicle owners can view the certification page at https://atlasautobody.com/manufacturer-certifications/.
