Welcome to the Autoshoppe
State of the art Auto Body shop built in Camrose
After 30 years in business in Ohaton, Gord Graham, the owner of The Auto Shoppe has built the body repair shop of his dreams. Years of planning and preparing have gone into what many declare to be the new operating standard of body shops. The new 10,000 square foot shop is catering to our clientele which demand the best in quality and service. The large shop area houses individual metal work, frame and disassembly bays, three priming and prepping bays, appraisal and wash and detail bays and the Ultra Plus spray booth.
The reception is a relaxing and soothing environment, complete with a comfortable seating area which includes a pond stocked with fish, but "no fishing allowed." The showroom includes a number of exhibit pieces including gas pumps, pictures of car history and the first snowmobile sold in Alberta in 1961. The showroom also displays custom cars which take you back in time. We meet the nicest people on their worst day. It's understood that when in an accident you have had a traumatic experience so we try our best to ease the situation. We look forward to serving the wonderful people of Camrose and east central Alberta.
With the world of vehicle insurance ever changing The Auto Shoppe staff is here to make the experience as pleasant as possible. We provide our customers and insurance partners a positive approach to repairing their vehicles. The industry requires the automobile repairers to be up to date with their equipment, facility and training as well as warrantees and after sales service. We can provide an appraisal bay for the insurance company appraisers to view your vehicle damage in our facility, or provide your insurer with in house appraisals through digital imaging technology.
With a staff of eight full time employees and three part time employees, we strive to produce the quality workmanship that our customers expect from The Auto Shoppe. Come in and view the new shop and let us show you what a collision repair shop can be.
DESIGNED FOR THE BODY SHOP THAT DEMANDS THE BEST
Welcome to the next generation of spray booth technology - Ultra Plus 1 Spray Booth.
The Ultra Plus 1 spray booth gives The Auto Shoppe the highest productivity and best quality finishes possible. The Ultra Plus booth is has one of the shortest and most effective curing cycles possible. Controlled air flow ceiling panels and secondary flow zones located on each side of the booth circulate overspray away from the walls and into the pit filters. Ultra Plus 1 is meticulously engineered to provide the highest levels of contamination control and the best quality finishes possible.
Waterborne PPG Paint Technology
With the next generation of paint products arrival, we have been legislated of move towards low VOC (volatile organic compounds) finishes. Environment Canada has issued an update to progress toward new regulations that would force the automotive refinish industry to switch over to low VOC paint and preparation products. The proposed regulation which will be applied in June 2010, is expected to reduce annual VOC emissions by the industry by approximately 40 percent. The regulations would include surface cleaners and materials used for surface preparation in addition to the coatings themselves. Simply put; over time all solvents will be removed from all painting procedures.
To increase our responsibility to our environment we have installed the Ultra Plus Spray Booth, and along with special training and procedures we can accommodate water borne refinish technology and do our part to cut down on green house gas emissions.
