The Creative Workshop

I would like to share my thoughts with someone who might be considering the use of Creative Workshop to restore, refine, or resolve issues with their automobile. First a small bit of my background… As a professional automobile designer and product design engineer for many years than I would like to admit, I can tell you that I am a car enthusiast with a high level of hands on experience in design, fabrication, manufacturing and engineering. My experience has carried me from early car renderings to the use of current CAD software and 3D modeling. So I feel like I can provide an honest assessment of the work and ethics of The Creative Workshop. I hope this is helpful. I have known Jason and Mike since the shop opened and have had work performed there with exemplary results. I have been there

Your South East place to have your dream recreated

It really pains me to leave this review as my initial experience with The Creative Workshop was great but the place just isn’t the same since Tony, the former General Manager left. I just don’t trust the new General Manager, Rodney Keyzer. The service I received from Rodney was very poor. My car sat around for weeks in their storage facility before it was even brought to their shop. When I finally did get it back, I had to bring it back a few more times for issues that should have been addressed while it was still there. I know classic cars are finicky, and they may work one day but not the next, but there were things that were done to my car that were unnecessary and it didn’t take very much for the next shop that I took it to, to get it right.

As you can see from many of their reviews, they are "good." LOL If you have an open check book go ahead and take your car there. For me it was a total disaster. I brought them a 58 corvette with dual 4 barrels and told them upfront I am not rich and just want the car to be sound and not leave me on the side of the road. After $30 grand and over 3 months I got the car back but only after I told them I was done, just finish it. I told Tony the manager immediately something was wrong with the car. I told him the car smells of gas to the point where I had to take a shower and wash my clothes after driving it. I also told him that the car had no power. His response to me was "old car buddy" totally dismissing me and any knowledge I have of cars. I put up with it for a while and told

The entirety of my experience with The Creative Workshop was extraordinary. I own a 1978 VW Bus. It is a vehicle that belonged to my beloved grandfather and a treasure chest of valuable memories for my family. Not only did I want to preserve the aesthetic integrity of my VW Bus, but I also wanted to feel assured that it was mechanically sound. It was incredibly important to me to find the right shop. I wanted a solid partner with me throughout the restoration process. For me, the integrity of the shop had to equal to their level of expertise and skill. I also knew this would not be an inexpensive endeavor and, as a woman who was new to the restoration experience, I was especially sensitive that I might be taken advantage of if I ended up with the wrong shop.
