I have used Mike’s Shop for a decade now. I support local family business. Mark is a excellent mechanic. Mike is honest, does not gouge prices and stands behind his work. I would not take my vehicle to anyone else!

I have been going there for 20 plus years, knew his father as well. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Excellent work (body and mechanical )all for a fare price. Anyone would be hard pressed to find better people or service

Caring. Hard-working. Kind.

Walked in and was immediately greeted. These guys are extremely kind and their service is top quality. Would rate them 6/5 if I could :)

Ive been going to these folks for years and have always been highly satisfied with their work. Their prices are fair and they stand behind their work. Ive used their mechanic for over 30 years at Mikes and other places he worked and know his expertise beats the rest by miles. If you want a fair, honest business to work with, Mikes is the one. My 229,000 mile Honda Accord depends on these folks to stay running!

I needed a truck towed so I gave Mike a call. I had no idea he was from Ames. I found out after. I called a lot of Des Moines towing companies and the earliest they could tow it was the next day. I called Mikes and the nice lady taking the call said Mike will be there in a few. Great communication and polite. Fantastic business!

One of only few shops in town that really cares its customers, reasonable and considerate

I got fog lights installed here. They gave me an exact estimate over phone itself. Mike did some search and was able to track down the right parts, and ordered it for me. They were installed, on time, as communicated, and everything is working perfectly. Everything at reasonable price. I am impressed.Before this place, I tried to get those installed at several places and everywhere I was asked to either order them myself or was flatly declined. Including, Wilson Toyota of Ames, who after quoting an exorbitant price (I guess, which would have been OK) told me that they cant get the parts!Thank you for an awesome job.

They always seem to have time to visit and their employees do good work

Awesome work great people

Mike is the most kind Mechanic I have ever met in the US. He is an honest and do the job right from the first time and did not charge me that much compared to other repair shops. Thank you very much indeed Mike for your great service.

I had a front end collision in my Toyota Avalon 2001. The insurance estimated it a total loss. Mikes worked with me to find used parts with matching paint. In this way he didnt have to do any painting which is a huge savings. He found fantastic used parts and got the job done for 33 percent of what the insurance estimated the cost would be. He even vacuumed the car. Mike deals directly with all his customers. He showed me the parts he found before installing. I really appreciated being treated with total respect and caring. I will definitely come back if I ever need body work done.. Pretty sure I would bring my car here even from out of state. I even received a thank you letter after the transaction. Did I mention they guarantee their work for the lifetime of the car.?!?! WOW IM SO IMPRESSED

Mike’s is a great shop to go to and he is fair and is willing to go the extra mile to help his clients.

You literally cannot ask for a better mechanic. We have been going to Mikes for years now and have never been let down. They are always honest, even to the disadvantage of their own pocket book at times. They do it all at a high level. Maintenance and repair are done quickly and well. You will never go wrong taking your vehicle here!

Highly recommend this place! Excellent and best service Ive had. Really nice guy that took care of my car right away, I was in and out.

Every time I take a car to Mikes - no matter what the service - I always get a fair deal and excellent service. Mike is honest and open about the work being done and never overcharges. When I crashed my car, he gave me a good, reasonable estimate which helped a lot toward the newer car we purchased; of which he also services! Mike is definitely one of the good guys!

I always get the best service possible when I come here. They explain everything they do and why they do it. They always consider my bank account when fixing my car. I would recommend this place to everyone.

I have been going to Mikes for 6 years and they have always been nice, fair and honest about their services. I have an older car (1998) so it used to break a lot, but once they fixed all the issues it has been going for 4 years without a single problem (just oil changes). The prices are very reasonable and most importantly they tell me when the car does not need anything without changing me a dime!

This is absolutely the best car service provider I have ever worked with. Took care of the insurance paper work for State Farm and did an excellent job. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. I am not going to work with anyone else from now on.

The service was quick and efficient! Staff were friendly and knowledgeable and were able to get my car in and out without a problem. They are reliable and can be counted on to get the job done!

Excellent service. Cordial Staff.Mike is an experienced and nice guy to solve your Car body related issues.

After working with other body shops in the area that werent willing to take on my small job, I was pleasantly surprised when I learned about Mikes Body & Frame in Ames. What a nice surprise! If ever I have a need I will come here first! 5 STARS!!! Great people! Thank you so much!!!!

Very friendly! Reasonable prices with good explanations of the causes of the issues you are having with your car.

Could not be more happy with the customer service I received here, went in with a problem and they fixed it very quickly and even easier than what I thought it would take. Definitely would recommend this place!

You will be hard-pressed to find better service.

Perfect place for getting body work done. They gave me the best price in the area.

They are nice and helpful. Their price are also reasonable!

Always fast, friendly and appropriately priced!

Great group of people and fair priced

I was in a minor fender bender and was looking around for quotes. I like to do business with locally owned businesses and even though they werent recommended by anyone to me, I decided to give Mikes Body & Frame a chance. When I picked up my car, they had detailed it on the inside, had replaced a bulb they noticed was burned out, and had glued down a piece of molding on the side of my car that had lifted. I had asked another business how much they would charge to glue down the molding while my car was in for the other repair, and they quoted me $50! I hadnt even asked Mike about fixing the molding; I was just going to glue it down myself, but they saw it was starting to come up and fixed it... without charging me for it! When I need any other body & frame work, Ill be going back to Mikes!

Excellent work! Fair prices! Very honest. Highly recommend.

Wonderful service and very affordable.

Best price in this area highly recommend

Mike really cares about his customers. What a great Ames business.

Great prices and communicate well.

Great People!

Like family
