Looking for a good body shop in central Florida

Yahoo Message Number: 84950
Has anyone had any experience with Bryan's Collision Center located in Lake Wales Florida? I was looking for an RV body repair shop and came across this one. They happen to be close to where i am staying.
Bryan's website is: http://www.bryanscollisioncenter.com
Thanks in advance for any help available.

Jose,

Butch Williams @ Fountain RV in Lakeland, FL. does a lot of body work on CC RV's Butch is a old time CC employee. I had some service work done there and was very happy with the work they did.

Fountain RV is closer to Tampa than Orlando along I-4.

I agree that Butch and Fountain would probably be your best bet. Not that far from Lake Wales and they do excellent work.

I would not use Fountain RV, I had a bad experience with them, they stole items from our coach and over charged for work they did, very badly.

Charlie,

I am sorry to hear that. When we were there two years ago, they did an excellent job on the repair of our coach and nothing was missing. Butch was very easy to work with. We stayed in the coach one of the 3 nights it was there. The other 2 we left the coach on their lot and stayed with relatives in Clermont.

We have also used Fountain RV 2x with great results. Fast work, reasonably priced. We stayed in the RV except when they put the roof coating on. It was hot and no AC.
We wouldn't hesitate to go back to them for service.

Me too. The problem was Butch was gone most of the time the work was done and I don't think the others new what the were doing, they left the radiator cap open and I lost 2.5 gal of coolant, they charged to fix my slide and did nothing and charge over $200.00 to fix it, we lost a $100.00 shade for the driver side window. They charged $130.00 to put air in my tires and did not put in what I wanted, just to name a few

Charlie,

Expressing your opinion as to the quality and pricing is one thing. Accusing them of stealing is quite another. It may not be a wise thing to do on a Yahoo Group that is associated with their line of business.

Just a thought.

We have used Fountain RV in Lakeland for almost three years while we have been on the east coast. Left the coach there when we flew back for Dr. appointments and also stayed in coach. No problems and Butch certainly knows Country Coaches.
