3 more locations for Craftsman

BC’s largest chain of collision repair shops is growing again. Our first of three new locations debuted as a Craftsman Collision last May 28 in Langley’s Walnut Grove neighbourhood. Formerly Don Beck Collision, the spacious shop is seen by thousands of motorists every day in that growing section of the city. The new Craftsman delivers the same high quality of service on which the Don Beck chain was founded – with the existing staff, we might add – and with the bonus of free AIR MILES® reward miles.

A former AirCare centre in White Rock became our 24th Craftsman location last December 5. And on January 19, a 20,000-foot facility in the Victoria suburb of Colwood became Craftsman’s fourth and most impressive Vancouver Island location – and Craftsman's 25th.

These three new shops come just over a year after we opened our second Calgary location. Distinctive Auto Works opened in 1993 but was acquired by us in 2007.  Located at 2328 Pegasus Rd. NE near Calgary Airport, the 6000-foot upmarket shop specializes in Mercedes-Benz, and is fully authorized by Mercedes-Benz Canada.

Distinctive’s technicians are rigourously trained in Mercedes systems, with frequent upgrading sessions to improve their skills and knowledge. Non-Mercedes owners will be happy to hear that with its high standards and Mercedes-approved equipment, Distinctive brings the same expertise and high Craftsman quality standards to other premium vehicle makes as well.
