About Us

Founded in the heart of Hamilton, Ontario, in 1971, Oakland Auto Body is more than just an auto body shop—it's a beacon of tradition and excellence in automotive care. Our journey began with Tony Vivolo, a visionary with a profound passion for cars and an unwavering commitment to service.

With a dream in his heart and tools in his hands, Tony laid the foundation of what would become a local legacy. Over the decades, Tony's dedication to quality and customer satisfaction transformed a modest workshop into a thriving business.

At Oakland Auto Body, we believe in the power of relationships. It was the trust and loyalty of our customers, nurtured through years of reliable service, that allowed us to grow and prosper. These relationships, some spanning generations, are the cornerstone of our success and are as durable as the repairs we provide.

Whether you're a longtime customer or new to the Hamilton area, we invite you to experience the Oakland Auto Body difference. Let our family take care of yours, and see why our tradition of excellence isn't just our history—it's our commitment to the future.

A Family Tradition Continues

Today, the torch has been passed to the next generation of the Vivolo family. Domenic and Ed, alongside their sister Grace, carry forward the legacy of their father with the same ethos of hard work, excellence, and integrity. This transition has infused Oakland Auto Body with a vibrant synergy of tradition and innovation, ensuring that the values which Tony cherished continue to be at the core of everything we do.

For over 50 years, our family has been committed to offering not just auto body repair, but a warm, welcoming environment where every customer feels valued. Our team, an extension of our family, shares our passion for cars and our mission to provide exceptional workmanship.

From meticulous paint jobs to comprehensive collision repairs, we treat every vehicle as if it were our own, ensuring that when you leave our shop, your car is not only restored to its pre-accident condition but also carries a piece of our family's care and attention.
