Gerber Collision and Glass - Chicago/Halsted St

The following describes Gerber Collision and Glass as a company rather than the Chicago/Halsted St location specifically. According to the company's About Us page, Gerber Collision and Glass was 'Founded in 1937 by Phil Gerber' and has 'provided quality auto collision and glass repair services for more than 80 years.' The page states the company 'started as a single auto glass and trim shop in Chicago' — the same city where this Halsted St location operates — and has 'grown to one of the largest auto collision and glass repair companies in North America.' The site's footer identifies Gerber Collision and Glass as operating under 'The Boyd Group,' alongside the related brand 'Boyd Autobody and Glass.' Company-wide, Gerber lists 72 Illinois locations on its location directory, including shops in Chicago, Skokie, Evanston, Elgin, Naperville, and many other Illinois cities and suburbs, each with its own separate address, phone number and hours. The Chicago/Halsted St shop at 3425 N Halsted St, Chicago, IL 60657 is one of several Chicago-proper locations, distinct from other Chicago-area Gerber shops such as those on W Huron St, S Kedzie Ave, W 63rd St, W Armitage Ave, N Elston Ave, W Irving Park Rd, N Kedzie Ave, N Northwest Hwy, and N Western Ave. Customers should confirm they are reaching the address, phone number and hours for the Halsted St location specifically, since the chain-wide history and structure described here are not unique to this one shop.

Lists Chicago, Elgin, Evanston, Irving Park, Naperville, Skokie, and North Salt Lake as a location. Names Illinois as a service area. Areas beyond these are not published.

For repair estimates and payment, the Chicago/Halsted St location's own page lists 'FREE Repair Estimates,' 'Direct Billing to Insurance,' and 'Deductible Financing' among the reasons to choose this shop, alongside its National Lifetime Guarantee and I-CAR Gold Class certification. The page states the shop provides 'free written repair estimates' for collision and auto body work, and customers can also use the site's online collision estimate tool. Gerber's company-wide financing page (this detail is chain-wide, not written specifically for the Halsted St shop) describes 'Up to 6 Months Interest FREE Financing,' explaining that customers who need a vehicle fixed but lack funds for repairs or an insurance deductible can apply and, once approved, have up to six months to pay. That page notes this financing is available at 'select Gerber Collision and Glass locations,' so customers should confirm with the Chicago/Halsted St shop by phone whether financing is offered there before assuming it applies. The website does not publish specific repair prices, pricing, labor rates, or fee schedules for any service at this location — costs are determined through the free written estimate process rather than posted rates or fees. It also does not name which insurance companies this shop directly bills or has repair agreements with; it states only that direct billing to insurance is offered. Customers wanting a cost estimate, a quote, or details on financing and insurance billing at this specific location should contact the shop at (773) 296-0555 or use the online collision estimate tool on its page.

Gerber Collision and Glass backs repair work at its locations, including the Chicago/Halsted St shop, with what the company calls a 'National Lifetime Guarantee for as long as you own your vehicle.' This location's own page repeats that language for auto body work ('backed by our industry-leading National Lifetime Guarantee for as long as you own your vehicle') and for auto glass work ('backed by a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own your car'). The company's guarantee page (chain-wide, linked from every location including this one) restates the same core promise — 'We proudly stand behind our repair work for as long as you own your vehicle' — but does not publish additional written terms, exclusions, or a claims process beyond that statement; no separate written conditions document was found on the site. The Chicago/Halsted St shop is also identified on its own page as 'I-CAR Gold Class,' which the site describes as 'the highest training level recognized in the collision repair industry.' The website does not publish ASE certification for individual technicians at this location, nor does it name specific automaker (OEM) certifications for this shop. A separate company page lists 'Tesla Authorized Body Shop' locations by state; for Illinois it names only the Gerber Collision and Glass shop in Skokie, IL. The Chicago/Halsted St location does not appear in that list, so it should not be described as Tesla-authorized based on current site content.

Gerber Collision and Glass's Chicago/Halsted St location is a full-service auto body and auto glass repair shop located at 3425 N Halsted St, Chicago, IL 60657. Customers can contact this location by phone at (773) 296-0555 or by email at chicagowrigleyvilleil@gerbercollision.com. The shop's published hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, and Saturday, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm; the site does not list Sunday hours, so this location should be treated as closed Sunday unless confirmed by phone. Customers who want to schedule a repair can book a collision appointment or an auto glass appointment through this location's page on gerbercollision.com, or by calling the phone number above during open hours. The site also offers an online collision estimate tool and directions to the shop's Halsted Street address. This location's own contact form asks for name, phone number, city, state, and the nature of the inquiry (customer care, employment, or general inquiry). The website does not publish appointment wait times or how far in advance booking is required at this shop, so customers should call directly to confirm current scheduling availability. This document covers only the Chicago/Halsted St location; Gerber Collision and Glass lists 72 separate Illinois locations on its site, each with its own address, phone number and hours, including several other Chicago-proper shops distinct from this one.

The Chicago/Halsted St location offers windshield replacement and repair as part of Gerber Collision and Glass's auto glass services. This location's own page states the shop 'provides windshield replacement and repair' and installs 'high-quality auto glass and auto glass installation materials,' with the work 'backed by a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own your car.' Customers can choose drop-off service at the shop or mobile/onsite auto glass service, described as available 'at no additional charge,' and can request service online or by phone. The company's general windshield replacement page (chain-wide content, not specific to this location) adds that Gerber offers online windshield replacement quotes, notes cracked-windshield repair is a safety issue because the windshield supports the passenger compartment and airbag system, and states technicians are 'highly trained, certified, and experienced' using 'OEM quality' materials. That chain-wide page also states glass service is 'Approved by all major insurance companies,' though it does not name any specific insurer, and the Chicago/Halsted St page does not repeat that claim for this location specifically. To get an online windshield replacement quote or schedule mobile or drop-off auto glass service at the Chicago/Halsted St shop, customers can use the location's 'Schedule Auto Glass Appointment' link on gerbercollision.com or call (773) 296-0555. The site does not publish glass repair pricing; costs come from the online quote tool or by contacting the shop directly.

Gerber Collision and Glass's Chicago/Halsted St shop offers collision repair and auto body services. Per this location's own page, services include collision repair, auto body repair, dent / scratch repair / removal, frame straightening, auto paint repair, paintless dent repair (PDR), and bumper repair, offered 'to bring your vehicle back to pre-accident condition.' The page describes the shop as a 'full-service auto body shop in Chicago.' The company's general auto body repair page (chain-wide content, not written specifically for this location) adds that shops are staffed by auto body repair specialists, auto body painters, and collision repair estimators who assess vehicle damage — including hidden damage — and coordinate repairs. That chain-wide page also lists auto dent/scratch repair, auto dent removal, fender repair, bumper repair, auto painting, auto paint repair, paintless dent repair (PDR), frame straightening, and hail damage repair as services across Gerber locations generally, and states the company 'uses a computerized paint color matching system' for repairs. The Chicago/Halsted St page does not separately list hail damage repair for this specific shop — it appears only on the company-wide services page — so a customer with hail damage should call ahead to confirm it is handled at this location. The website does not name which specific insurance companies this shop has repair agreements with; customers should confirm insurance details directly with the shop by phone at (773) 296-0555.
