Wrens Collision & Complete Car Care

I took my family (me with 4 kids, the youngest being 11 months) to New Orleans for the weekend and didn't give my car the much needed oil change it deserved. When we tried to head back to Florida, my car gave out on me. So, I was basically stranded 6 hours from home on a Sunday with no mechanic answering the phone (because it's Sunday!). I finally called Wrens and not only did the owner pick up but he went out of his way to make sure my family and I got up and running without missing too much of a beat. Not only will I recommend them to anyone I meet, but I'm planning another trip to New Orleans just to say hi and give them more business. Never met nicer or more sincere folks. Thank you!

Met Mr Sammy at his shop driving by on my way to Walmart with no expectations but I must say that the service and time and the dedication that Mr Sammy gave me with helping me with my vehicle was exemplary to a professional that actually cares about his customers! He insisted that I needed a car wash and had me laughing as he started washing my car as I was about to leave! Such a funny fellow who I recommend immensely! I will be back for sure. I had a good afternoon today meeting Sammy and talking with him.

Called on a Sunday and a very nice young fellow came to my home and looked at my bumper that had a small scratch that happened to me at roused parking lot! He said he was usually booked up but took my car and brought it back looking amazing,washed and all which I haven't done I months:/ Fantastic.i was recommended to him and gave him a try and had an experience that I didn't expect. I highly recommend everyone to give Sammie wrens a call. Great surprise.

Had a huge rust spot under the spoiler on my treasured '96 Land Cruiser (see first pic). Called around for quote and most places wouldn't even take the job! Guess people just don't need money anymore... (smh) Thank goodness I remembered Wrens there on Tchop. Called them and not only were they very nice, they were also very reasonably priced.

When I got there Sammy was super helpful, knowledgeable and very nice. The whole experience was so good that I also got some cosmetic work done while it was there. I had removed my fender flares (lips above the wheel wells) and that had left about 20 little holes above my wheels all around the truck.

While the truck was at Wren's I worked with the very nice lady in the office (feel awful can't remember her name!) and we came to a great price on patching the holes and repainting the panels.

Although it took a couple of weeks, when the work was done, I was literally amazed by how great the truck looked. The original color is not very common and they matched it perfectly. The fiberglass work really looks like the truck was made that way, I truly could not be happier with the results and the price.

I highly recommend Wren's for cosmetic or accident work, they take the time and do it right and for a reasonable price and you don't have to drive to the boonies to get it done, it's on Tchopitoulas and Napoleon! Great job guys, I'll be coming back to get my hood and roof painted.

I took my pickup truck to Wrens for years and Sammy maintained it so well that it lasted forever. Way longer than it otherwise would have! Ha! Thanks guys!!

Sammy the owner and his whole staff were very professional as well as showed genuine concern for my needs. All the worked they performed was some of the best I have ever seen and I have been in the automotive industry for over 20 years. They kept me up to date on everything being done to my vehicle and took me in during the pandemic and made it a point to show me how important their customers are to this business. I will suggest Wrens to all my friends and family, Top notch business. Thank you so much for taking such good care of me.

I had a great experience at Wrens. I was in need of repairs before heading out of town. The accident to my car ( not my fault!) needed to be fixed before driving out. The guys there, Sammy and Crystal ( not sure if I spelled that right), the two people in the office, took in my car and made sure i was sorted out with a rental. They repaired my car in 3 days, even though they were "booked up". When I picked up my car, it looked fantastic! It was nice, shiny and clean, and even drove better!( they said I needed an alignment being that I was hitting the road, so they did that) Overview for me is that I'd send my mum, dad, and all of my friends and family there if they ever need accident repairs. In my opinion, Wrens looks like a nice independant business to deal with. I liked them.

I can’t speak highly enough about the wonderful experience I had, and the customer service given to me by Sammie. I messed up my front bumper on Friday evening, and based on the damage, I was worried that I would have to replace the entire bumper. I wanted to get it taken care of as soon as possible and Wren’s was one of the only shops I could find that was open on Saturdays. I drove into the garage and Sammie immediately greeted me and assured me that all my car needed was a quick part replacement that would take less than an hour. I was so relieved! On top of everything, I was given a great price on the work I received. I would absolutely recommend going to Wren’s if you’re having car trouble.

Wrens is a first class operation!!! Sammy and his team do A++ work and have repaired many of my cars. The result looks good as NEW, sometimes even better. Wrens also provides phenomenal customer service, and sets themselves apart by treating every job, big and small, like it's the most important thing in front of them. Highly recommended!!

I am a student at Tulane University and I am usually really busy during the weekday so finding a body shop that opens during the weekend is really hard. I decided to drive down Tchoupitoulas Street and check out if any shops are open and Wren was the only one. I took a leap of faith and went in.

Let me just say, for strangers, Sammie is incredibly friendly, and not in a creepy way at all. He's the kind of person that will deliver you all the way when you need help! I was involved in a hit-and-run accident two weeks prior and I wanted to ask him for an estimate on how much it would cost to buff the scratches out. Instead of just doing what I had originally planned, which would require me to pay a lot of money out of pocket, he helped me file a police report as well as an insurance claim so that I can take the most advantage out of the situation and keep my money! The policeman arrived half an hour late and the whole situation took more than two hours. Sammie stayed with me the whole entire time with no complaints and a smile on his face, even if it was after hours. Because I am a student, I was not very familiar with the terminologies regarding cars and insurance that the policeman was using and Sammie really helped me decipher them.

On top of being so helpful, Sammie also helped me buff out scratches on my car that were not a part of the hit and run, OUT OF HIS OWN KINDNESS!!! I was not charged, and I joined him in buffing the scratches out. In doing so, I really got to know him as a person. He has a good heart and has a lot of knowledge about cars and the mechanics behind it, which I don't doubt at all because he was a mechanical engineering major in college. We talked about various subjects while buffing the car, and ended up finishing at 9PM. I repeat, 9, PM. Time really flew by when you have good company.

You're never going to find a mechanic as knowledgeable, honest, and kind as Sammie. I highly recommend this place and especially Sammie. Save your money now and go see him!

This is a great place with even better people. I am a college kid who's car got wrecked by a friend driving it. I had never really had to deal with accidents only being 19 years old. They walked me through my options and communicated with me well the entire time. They even dropped me off and picked me up when the car was done also, they cleaned my cars interior and exterior. I highly recommend. Katie was a lot of help.

Ive been going to Sammy’s shop as long as I’ve been driving. He’s honest and is fair with his prices. He was closed for a few months because Coronavirus, but now he’s reopening and I got him to take in my car ( even though he his team isn’t taking any cars yet!) I will only use Sammy because i can deal with him directly. Some advice only deal with him tho

I never thought I'd have a favorite body shop but now I do. I tried this place out to get my front quarter panel fixed after having some unsatisfactory work done at another shop. I picked Wren's just because it was the closest place to my house and they took my insurance. The work was beautiful, and it really looked like nothing had ever happened. In addition to that, the experience is great. The waiting lobby is never boring and they'll usually give you free rides if you live close or on the way to where they're going. I'll still keep going even if I move out of this neighborhood.

The atmosphere is friendly service is good with lots work going on. I would recommend this place to get your auto body repairs talk to Sammy or someone in the office if you have any questions about the repairs. Talk to them about oil changes, tire rotation, auto wash , wax, detailing, and polish.Wrens a full auto service center.

My husband purchased a car through wrens and they cut us an amazing deal they took such great care of us we stayed the whole day! We came as car buyers and left as friends. Will definitely be back and recommend them highly! -Toni & Jake Mandeville LA

There great , everything was professional and they came out to me and make it more convenient, they were the only ones to answer the phone, super happy. Very professional and Sammy the owner still remember my name after a 3 year time gap since I last saw them , highly recommended

This place has been around for years and they do excellent work. What makes them better than the rest, they are a New Orleans family owned business. Great people and great services.

When I first moved to New Orleans two years ago, I had the misfortune of popping two tires in the same week on the pothole ridden streets uptown. The second time, I hobbled my car to Wren’s on the suggestion of my roommate and they patched my tire up so quickly, and didn’t charge me as a “welcome to the city” gift! Really lively and lovely service.

Just got my Camry painted, lovely job. Really quick and professional. I feel like I have a new car almost!! The price was fair, and the work was completed ahead of schedule. Very satisfied.

Sammy is awesome. I was totally lost today, I was just trying to help my friend with a flat tire. Tracy fixed my tire and put it back on. Sammy was kind and fun while I waited. I will defiantly go back and if you are looking for a helpful group of people this is the place to go!!!!!!
