Village Auto Body in Richfield is excellent. They take great pride in their work and it shows. My car looks better then it did before my accident. I would definitely recommend them. Thank you Village Auto Body. I couldn’t be happier.

Top notch!!! I am out of town stranded with car trouble and Rick didn’t hesitate to help me out! So kind and impeccable service. Those of you who live in this area are blessed to have this company so close to you. So thankful for everything he and his mechanic did and for all his kindness!!!
Hands down one of the best auto body shops around. The owner and employees are great people. Quality of the work is top notch and nothing is ever overlooked. I have been taking my cars there for 8+ years and have nothing but good things to say about Rick and his shop.
Wonderful body work and have been in business for many years. I wouldn’t take my damaged vehicle to anyone else.
This place is super professional and helpful. I feel like they’re also reasonably priced. The office is like stepping back to 1920! It’s one of the nicest Auto offices I’ve ever been inside.
Recently I had a wreck and I had to pick a shop to repair my car. I’m glad I pick Village Auto Body. I had seen their local advertising that always looked professional so I decided to call. From the first moment I spoke to Rick felt confident I would receive good service and I did.

Bill Nagel, another well-liked Richfield resident, took over operation of the business there in 1971. By 1975, the business had outgrown it location. Bill purchased a commercial building, just south of its current location on Brecksville Road, and Village Auto Body was born.
Meanwhile, Rick Hudak, a University of Akron student – who, in 1973, started working at the auto body shop part time – became its third, and current, owner when Bill retired in 1982. Within five years, Village Auto Body once again outgrew its space, and moved to its present location at 3957 Brecksville Road. Designed from the floor up as a state-of-the-art automobile and light truck collision repair and refinishing facility, the main shop area was doubled in 1989, then remodeled in 2013 to accommodate the display of Hudak’s award-winning 1912 Cadillac restoration.
