Liz Brunner, Channel 5 Anchor

"Paul and his crew did an absolutely awesome job. I damaged the right rear door and quarter panel on my 2016 Tesla Model S. I picked it up this morning and it was as if I had just driven it from the dealer. This firm is very professional and did everything they said they would."
Joseph L., Sharon, MA

"Not only was the quality exceptional and done on the scheduled promised, but also Paul made the process of dealing with insurance companies, rental car agencies, and appraisers much easier for me. In fact, I did little more than arrive at his shop and he took care of the rest. Paul is a great advocate for his customers."
Frank Gentile

FAQ

Some common questions about our auto body shop.

Which insurance companies do we work with?

Allston Collision Center works with most major auto insurance companies. It can be difficult to navigate the insurance world, but our General Manager has 30+ years of experience, and uses all of his accumulated knowledge to serve our customers best interests.

What type of cars do we work on?

Allston Collision Center is equipped to work on all makes and models. We have relationships with every parts vendor in the country, which means if the part is available Allston Collision Center can order it. We pride ourselves on sourcing the best auto parts available in order to restore your vehicle to pre-accident condition.

What makes our auto body shop superior?

Customer Service. Allston Collision Center is unequivocally the best at customer service. Our attention to detail, quality control and customer safety are unparalleled. We do our absolute best to answer every phone call during our open hours, we check all our vehicles before releasing them to the customer and we stand behind our work. There is a reason that we are considered to be one of the best auto body shops in Boston.

What type of paint do we use?

Allston Collision Center uses waterborne paints. Waterborne paint uses water instead of solvents. Many major auto manufacturers have been using waterborne paints since 2006. When the technology became available to us, and we realized we would still serve the needs of our customers, we switched to the more GREEN technology and sustainable auto body services.

What type of parts do we use?

Allston Collision Center uses various types of parts (OEM, aftermarket or used). This is determined by individual insurance company requirements as well as customer requests. We discuss with the customer, on a case-by-case basis, what the insurance company has determined we use and then, with the guidance of our Appraiser, it is decided what is best for a particular vehicle.

Do we guarantee our work?

All automotive work that Allston Collision Center has performed is guaranteed until you sell the vehicle. Now, how many auto body shops in Boston can make a promise like that?

Is this the right auto body shop for me?

Allston Collision Center is an award-winning Boston auto body shop, with expertise in green automotive repair practices and servicing all makes and models including aluminum auto body vehicles like Tesla.

Allston Collision Center’s team offers 50+ years of combined experience in collision repair and insurance negotiating. We continue to offer state-of-the-art training to employees and upgrade our systems to stay abreast of the ever-changing world of technology and vehicle repair.

Our History

The Chaet family has a history rich in collision repair professionals. Three generations have served the Boston area with superior work, customer service and an unbeatable guarantee.

The Chaet family history begins with Paul’s grandfather, Dave, who opened up shop in 1928 in the Boston area. By 1961 the operation is moved to its current location of 420 Cambridge Street, Allston, Massachusetts with Paul’s father, Mick, at the helm. In 2000, Paul Chaet and Elaine O’Neill took the reigns and are proud to continue in the footsteps of our predecessors. The year 2008 marks the 80th year a Chaet family member will continue the commitment that began with the talent of a grandfather willing to teach.

Allston Collision Center thanks all our past, current and future customers for allowing us to be of service. Allston Collision Center would also like to recognize all of its personnel for their efforts and contributions to our operation.

Carole Chaet 1932-2022

Some months ago, we lost part of our 2^nd Generation; Carole Chaet. I suggested to Paul we write a piece about his mother as one of the many people who helped us get to the place we are today. Paul asked if I would write it and I agreed. I have experienced the profound loss of parents and when I read Paul’s notes it was clear, this would be a letter of love and thanks from a grateful son.

This is my interpretation of Paul’s notes along with my respect and gratitude for being in Carole Chaet’s orbit.

I asked Paul to tell me the first word that came to mind when I said his mother’s name and without hesitation, he replied REBEL. I smile. The definition of REBEL is “a person who rises in opposition or resistance against an established government or ruler.” In its verb version “rise in opposition or resistance to an established government or ruler.” Carole personified REBEL both in its noun and verb form.
