Leave A ReviewFamily-owned since 1926 · serving FishHawk
If you need an auto body shop in FishHawk, you have probably noticed the closest options are chain shops or dealer body centers with a three-week wait. Dixie Paint & Body Shop is a family-owned Tampa shop, in business since 1926, fixing dents, bumpers, scratches and collision damage for FishHawk Ranch families.
Minivans, three-row SUVs, the occasional teenager's first car. We see them all.
From FishHawk to our door
Take Bloomingdale Avenue west to I-75 north, then I-4 west to 15th Street, just north of Ybor City.
The car lines for Newsome High and Randall Middle stack up along FishHawk Boulevard every weekday, and inching forward while looking at a phone produces a steady supply of tapped bumpers. The damage looks small. Sometimes the parking sensors behind the cover say otherwise.
We remove the cover, check the brackets and sensors, and repair or replace the bumper so it fits and works like it did before.
Boyette Road carries a lot of FishHawk traffic toward Riverview and US 301, and the turn lanes back up fast. Side impacts and front corner hits are common here.
Our collision repair work covers the fender, headlamp, wheel well liner and suspension check together, so nothing gets missed. Neighbors to the west can read about car body repair in Riverview.
A lot of FishHawk garages are full of bikes, coolers and sports gear, which leaves a narrow lane for a wide SUV. Mirror housings, front corners and rear quarter panels get scraped on the way in and out.
We fill, sand and refinish those scrapes so they vanish, and blend the color into the next panel.
Saturday morning lots off FishHawk Boulevard are packed with SUVs swinging big doors. One careless neighbor leaves a dent you see every time you load groceries.
Small dents can often be worked out with minimal paint. When the paint is cracked, we refinish just that panel. Valrico readers can find similar work on our paint and body damage repair in Valrico page.
Driveways in FishHawk face every direction, and the cars parked in the ones facing south get cooked. Roof and hood clear coat goes cloudy within a few summers.
We refinish the faded panels or repaint the whole car. Our paint booth work matches the color you have today, not just the code on the door jamb.
Family haulers are heavy, and a hard hit can shift the unibody even when the outside looks fine. Doors that rub, a hatch that will not latch, a steering wheel that sits crooked. All signs of structural damage.
Our ASE certified technicians measure and straighten the structure before any cosmetic work starts. Brandon drivers know this crew from our Brandon collision repair work.
We work with every insurance company and deal with the adjuster directly, and it is your right to pick the shop.
You get one point of contact and plain answers about where your car is in the process.
From FishHawk, most customers take Bloomingdale Avenue west to I-75, then I-4 into Tampa. We are just north of Ybor City on 15th Street. Plenty of parents drop the car on the way to work downtown and pick it up on the way back.
We are open Monday to Thursday, 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and we tell you the timeline before work begins.
Body work should not wreck the household budget. We give you a written estimate, explain the parts options, and will search for parts that keep the price reasonable. Bring an estimate from another auto body shop in FishHawk or nearby and we will try to beat it.
Angelo Traina Jr. inspects every car before it leaves, the same way three generations of his family have done it. That is the standard an auto body shop in FishHawk families can count on.
