What we fix

We are a local, family-owned and operated auto body and collision repair shop in the Bloomingdale and Pooler area. Top quality repairs at fair prices, and a straight answer about what your car needs.

  • Collision repair

    Body work after a crash, a deer strike or rocks off a truck on the highway, repaired so you can’t even tell anything happened.

  • Paint and paint matching

    Pearl paints and unusual paint codes matched so nobody can tell where the damage was.

  • Insurance repairs

    We work with all insurance companies and walk you through how the claim works, start to finish.

  • Estimates, new or existing

    Bring us the estimate you already have, or we will write a new one. Second estimates welcome, quoted fairly.

  • Windshield repair and calibration

    Windshield repair, with laser calibration done as part of the job.

  • Rare and imported cars

    Hard-to-find models and scarce parts are not a reason to turn a car away, even when other shops have passed on the job.

“My wife’s car was damaged by rocks from a truck on the highway […] After reading Diekemper’s reviews I chose to take the car to them for a second estimate. He quoted the job fairly and got the repairs approved through our insurance. Beyond the great body work, flawless paint job, repaired windshield and laser calibration, we were most impressed with the communication and professionalism. We were told when the estimate was complete, when the parts were ordered, when they arrived, and shortly after arrival the car was done.”

Before
How the Pao came in. Avery’s words below describe how it went home.

A rare car, and a paint match to suit

Rare cars, scarce parts and paint codes you will not find on the shelf. When Avery’s Nissan Pao needed collision work, other shops would not take it on. This is how it arrived, and what Avery wrote once the repair was finished.

“The repair job is truly perfect, not a single indication that it was involved in a collision. The paint match is incredible, especially given the fact that it is not a typical paint code and therefore readily available.”

Pearl paints too: “The paint job is flawless (I have a pearl paint and was told by a friend that it can be very hard to match).” Amanda Holland

Here is what a few of our customers said after their cars came home.

“Highly recommend Diekempers Auto Body! I hit a deer and messed up the front of my Tahoe pretty bad. After some research and referrals, I decided to send it to Diekempers. I was nervous about the entire situation, as I had never been in an accident or had to file a claim before, but from the beginning Robert was very friendly and knowledgeable. He made sure I understood the process, stayed in touch with updates, and I got my Tahoe back sooner than I expected. Customer service is great, and the work is top notch. The paint job is flawless (I have a pearl paint and was told by a friend that it can be very hard to match). You can’t even tell anything had ever happened. I’m beyond pleased!!! Thank you Robert and crew!”

“Robert Diekemper is an awesome auto body/paint repairman. He calls & gives updates on your vehicle. He was fast at getting me a quote on two of my vehicles. He was referred to me by two other people I know. I have never had to deal with an auto body shop before. He took time explaining everything to me & how the process works with him & the car insurance co. I had my vehicle back in no time. I will never go to anybody else but him. If you need a awesome paint job or body work he is the man for the job!”

“Amazing. Even though English isn’t my first language, he explains all information clearly and kindly. painting work also clear. he does’t overcharge. This bodyshop is the best shop that I’ve gone.”
Yeonwoo Kang · Google review, September 2026
“If I had the ability for a 6 star review for Diekempers Auto Body I would provide it. Truly astonished by the quality of the repair job they provided for my Nissan Pao. After my collision, I found it very difficult to find a repair shop that was willing to take on the job due to the rarity of the car and its lack of replacement parts. Luckily I stumbled upon Diekempers and could not have been more pleased with the experience. […] Above all though, the team performing the work were incredibly pleasant to work with and exhibit incredible knowledge of body repair work.”
