Springfield's Westside Body Shop! Lifetime Guarantee on all Repairs! Full Service Collision Repair...Paint and Body Work for all Makes and Models...Restoration of Classic Cars


Co-owners Matthew Milkint and Tressa Hartman founded Phoenix Collision in March of 2006 following the devastating tornadoes that ripped through Springfield, IL. Matthew had over 13 years of experience in the industry when his place of employment was destroyed by the storms. After assisting with clean-up and realizing it would be a year before they could re-open, he decided to fulfill his dream of opening his own facility. Tressa joined him a month later, bringing with her over 11 years of experience in customer retention, product development, and marketing. They chose a location on Springfield's West side as this area had been home to them growing up. With the support of family, friends and the community they have built their business into one of the most trusted collision repair facilities in the area.

“We are committed to making sure each customer leaves here completely satisfied. Referrals from happy customers are the best compliments we can receive, and that is important if you want to become a trusted part of the community.” - Matthew Milkint, August 2006
