Thirteen technicians and managers at Professionals Auto Body have completed extensive OEM training. Professionals Auto Body now has four certified welders who do the structural work on today’s vehicles including the owner, Ron Perretta, who is also certified in welding.

"We are dedicated to repairing vehicles to the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) specifications only. This assures our customers their vehicle is safe and doesn’t lose its value after a repair. Today’s vehicles are complicated and understanding the repair methodology of each vehicle separately is necessary, the very reason why we’ve invested in our staff, equipment and the system to access the information from the manufactures," Perretta said. "There are no vehicles we can’t repair today. This includes any mechanical, electrical and glass repairs. Today, as always, we can say we have more trained people and more equipment than anyone else in the area.”

Established in 1979 in Altoona, Pennsylvania; Professionals Auto Body is a privately held company specializing in efficient and quality automotive collision repairs. Its sister company, KarPro, was founded in 2009 to provide exceptional automotive mechanical repair and service to its customers.

More than 30 years of providing automotive collision repair in the Central Pennsylvania area has enabled Professionals Auto Body to become the premier body shop in the area.
