Once again, Hi Tech blew me away with their outstanding service. Daniel goes above and beyond to make the customer happy and experience very little inconvenience (it’s hard for me to part with my car, even for a day.)
The work was great and finished earlier than expected.
Free transportation to and from Hi Tech really is ultra convenient and helped me to decide not to add the expense of a rental car (was able to work from home.)
This should be the only place that you get your autobody work done.

Surgeons and auto body shops: you hope never to need them but when you do, you want the best. Hi Tech saved me the trouble of dealing with the insurance company to cover hail damage the appraiser and I had missed. They repaired the damage from an accident so that it looks brand new. They buffed out some scratches on my car at no charge and the vehicle was ready on time. I highly recommend Hi Tech. If I need additional work, I will use these guys.

This place is a great find. I have, unfortunately, had an opportunity to try half a dozen other shops around Cambridge/​Boston and these guys are in another league. They do fantastic work, at a very fair price and in the time they promise. They are personable and super professional. Love them!

Unilocal was so right: these guys are amazing. I took my 328i that had a slight fender ding, and they very professionally fixed that and took care of other dings in the car. Throughout the process, they were very friendly, guided me through the process with insurance, and when I went to pick up the car, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw how good of a job they did. The car appears flawless, with no issues of color matching nor any signs that the car had been worked on. I hope to not have dings in my car in the future (hope springs eternal!) but if I do, and am in Boston, this is the place to go.
Thank you, Unilocal

This company is one of the most professional, honest, friendly and top-​quality companies I’ve ever had the pleasure of doing business with.
I was referred to HiTech by a friend who works in the automotive repair (engine, etc) space dealing specifically with BMW’s & Jaguars. After I found a vertical dent in the body-​line of my rear passenger door of my X5 my, I reached out to my friend for a referral because I was in need of a body shop to fix the damage — it was too severe for a dent repair company. My buddy said that after 10 years or so trying different body shops all over Boston and beyond, he finally found one that provided EXCEPTIONAL work and one that was trustworthy — a very rare combo these days. He asked I call HighTech and it’s the best advice I’ve ever gotten when dealing with an automotive issue.
I took my X5 in for the team at HighTech to take a look. After 10 minutes or so, I was given a quote and set a time to drop my car off for the day. The day arrived and after giving the HiTech team my keys, they made certain that I had transportation back into the city for work. Who does that? When I came back to get my car I was truly amazed with the quality of work they had accomplished fixing the dent. They matched the paint EXACTLY to the rest of my car — this was a concern because they would be painting the whole door and my car is a rare Platinum Grey color. My car was washed and even vacuumed (I tipped extra)! The entire experience was outstanding.
If you’re in need of auto bodywork I highly recommend the crew at HighTech. It’s not often I rave about service providers because I feel that more times than not these days people are let down, but this company is old-​fashioned in the way they do business by making the customer a priority, and by providing amazing quality of work and service!

I was preparing to turn in my lease early to avoid going over the mileage. I took my car to Hi Tech to clean up the dents and scratches on my bumpers. Hi Tech far exceeded my expectations and I am now a customer for life. The owner Daniel really goes above and beyond. It only took them a day to do my car and Daniel offered me his personal car to use. Never once did I feel like they are trying to take advantage of me. They even detailed the car and when it was done it looked brand new! I was able to turn my lease in early and the dealership noted how well I keep my car (I didn’t let them in on my secret gem Hi Tech).

I’d gotten quotes from a few other auto body stores for my damaged bumper before dropping by Hi-​Tech without an appointment. I was greeted right away with a warm and friendly smile. Within 5 minutes, I was walking around my car with Daniel trying to understand what it would take to fix it.
As we walked back into the shop he offered me a hot cocoa or coffee (which completely hit the spot on a snowy winter day), and within 10 minutes had a quote for me, had the part on its way and booked me for the following day. He then brought my car inside to tape and pin the bumper in place so that it would be safe for me to drive.
That night he called to confirm that despite the snow, the part had arrived and that we would be ready the next day to get service.
Each of the other places I’d gotten quotes from weren’t able to see me for 10 – 14 days and they claimed that they would have to keep my car for at least a week.
To be honest, I haven’t found auto stores to be particularly woman-​friendly. But Hi-​Tech is different. They made me feel at home and respected. They cared about doing a good job for me and delivered on that along every step of the way. I’d recommend them to anyone!

Got into a fender bender involving most of my car’s driver side. Now the car looks better than it did before the accident in the first place. Dave and Fay were our advocates the whole time and Danny made sure any wrinkles got ironed out along the way. Top notch service. Super easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them. All around good people.

They seems to mostly handle insurance repair. I went there without insurance and they still applied the same fraudulent billing practices.
The job was to install on a Mercedes GL450:
— Running board
— Right mirror
— Lower shield front and back
I provided all the pieces including any materials needed.
Their official hourly rate is 45/​hr, but really, they multiply the time by 2 or 2.5 times. Also, they multiply the total time by 12/​hr for body supplies… which of course didn’t make sense for that job, but the seller was still feeling good about it.
So mainly, their real hourly rate is clearly and way above $ 100/​hr.
The seller, David Cooper, gave false information many times. I’m not going to list all of them here.
I went there because they clearly often do work on Mercedes, but the only think relevant they had to do specific to Mercedes for me was to install the right mirror but they didn’t install it correct, and David told me: ‘The motors move in 6 directions and 4 are not working’.
I left from there and went directly to the Mercedes dealership because the motor were moving in all directions. However, the new parts they installed were not well installed.
Also Mercedes write down the following on paper about these new parts they just installed correctly: «Adjusted outside mirror glass so that it will fully adjust in and out. The housing of the mirror has a few clips broken and the harness has already been repaired. If customer wants it perfect they will have to replace the whole assembly.»
The whole assembly was new before Hi Tech try to install it.
So, mainly Hi Tech broke new parts, was not able to install them correctly, then Mercedes fixed the problem, without replacing any parts, and for free!
Hi Tech wash cars for free after services, that’s a positive I guess, but mine was not dry when they did my car and not that clean.

I honestly can not say enough great things about Hi Tech Auto!!;)
They truly are one of a kind in service, dependability and their genuine care!
Daniel is the the oil that makes it all work. He goes above and beyond what you could want or expect!
EXAMPLES: Offered to let me use his OWN vehicle so that I wasn’t stuck without a car.
I had a amethyst stone in my car that was accidentally sucked up when the car was being cleaned after a repair… Daniel replaced it with no questions asked.
He makes you feel like family and you can’t help wanting to tell all your friends about Hi Tech Auto!
THANK YOU for making a not so great situation (car getting rear ended) pleasant due to the trust and support given!
You are #1 in my book!!!

I brought my car in on Monday morning, having scraped the driver side door. I got the car after 3 pm on Tuesday. Great courteous service and reasonable price. Came to this shop because of the other recommendations and I can also add my own high one. Thanks, Hi Tech Auto Body and Dave Cooper.

I brought my car to Hi Tech knowing that they were mainly an autobody repair shop, but figured since their reviews were so great that maybe they could also help with my brake pads and rotors that were making some god awful noise. Not only did they oblige in helping me out with mechanic work, but they also offered to repair my bumper if I wanted. Their work was quick, efficient, thorough, and extremely reasonably priced. I cannot say that I’ve walked in and out of many auto repair businesses feeling completely confident in every aspect of the job done– until I went to Hi Tech. Very well run business with a trustworthy and talented staff. Highly recommend.

Just got my car back yesterday from Hi Tech Auto Body and am overjoyed with the results. It was towed in a few days ago due to an accident. They not only repaired the windshield and a few dents, they cleaned the car (both inside & out) and did it all in a timely fashion. They were quick and very easy to work with. A friend recommended them to me and now Im recommending them to everyone!

Daniel, the new owner of Hi-​Tech auto body was amazing at customer service. He not only fixed my car in two days when the other auto bodies said it would take five days but he did a prestine job! I got my car with not a scratch on the car, the car was washed and vacummed. Better than new! Thank you for being so thorough and making the process so easy for me. –Julie

This is my second time at High Tech and they are extremely helpful and efficient. They dealt with all the insurance info and I just paid my deductible when I picked up the car. Their work is flawless. About as easy as it gets!

Awesome service .Took my Prius there for a broken driver side mirror. They got the part in and fixed it In a jiffy. The «generic» mirror I had them put in was installed and color matched perfectly. Very friendly and efficient. I could even pick my car up the next morning and didn’t have to rush back to grab it. Really convenient.

I recently took my car to Hi Tech for a dent. I dropped the keys in the overnight box on Sunday and received a call on Monday that my car was ready. They were willing to keep the car until later that week, as I couldn’t get out of work in time. The car looked perfect and as an added bonus they vacuumed the car (way overdue!). I will recommend Hi Tech Auto Body to my family and friends.

My third experience with Hi Tech over the past decade and they were fantastic. Fast, courteous, the work is done perfecty, car was spotless, and when I couldn’t pick up my finished car due to the flu, the front desk person remembered and asked how I was feeling when I finally did pick up the vehicle. How nice!

I have since had to replace the catalytic converter which two independent mechanics told me was the result of a front-​end collision occuring before I bought the car from Hi Tech. Hi Tech looked me in the eyes on and told me that there had been no mechanical damage to the car on multiple occasions. This ran me well over $ 1,000. I also had to re-​do the brakes at around 50,000 mi. Please do yourself a favor and do not buy a car from these folks, buy pre-​owned certified at the minimum.
