What Bergen's Auto Body Clients Say ...
"Bergen’s is an “A” One Business in Regina Saskatchewan. I needed body work done due to a person hitting my vehicle in a parking lot. While the vehicle was in their shop, I asked them to replace the front windshield also. During the time my vehicle was in their shop, they supplied me with updates as to the progress of the repairs, which I greatly appreciated. Their work is top notch; in my opinion, the BEST in Regina! They not only returned my vehicle with the body work completed and my car looking fabulous, but they returned my vehicle in immaculate condition. Washed, and not a spec of dust. The Bergen’s guarantee superb workmanship, and they deliver! Thank You!" - Patricia Knapp- Google
"Wow!! These guys are AWESOME! Did an SGI claim through them, they kept me up to date the entire time, I got texts every step along the way of the repair and they finished it sooner than I anticipated. But wow it looks amazing inside and outside of the car! I was letting my brother use my car and it was starting to get stinky in there and they even cleaned the interior. I am so happy, my expectations have really been exceeded!" - Sarah S - Google

A word from Sara, the Trusted Regina founder, about her personal experience with .
When I first met the Bergen family, I knew they were right for Trusted Regina. They are down-to-earth, hard-working folk that put everything into what they do. It is obvious that Jon and Tyson care so much about their clients and their team, they cherish the legacy passed to them from their parents, and they will do everything to do better and be better! Bergens are not only an outstanding local business and leader in the Saskatchewan autobody industry, but they are also committed to supporting the Regina community. They know from personal experience how important it is to encourage and support kids in sports, especially those that need financial assistance for equipment and fees. Helping out is a big part of who they are. They are so involved and passionate about kids' sports teams and activities in Regina that it takes work to keep up with everything they sponsor! This shows a deep level of integrity and authenticity - they love Regina, and they are grateful for all the generations of families in their city that have supported Bergen's Auto Body, a local family-owned autobody shop. The Trusted Regina community and I are better for knowing them, and we are so proud to be a part of their ongoing success; we can't recommend them highly enough! - Sara Wheelwright

The Regina MAACO centre has been named a MAACO Certified Centre by the franchise chain's home office. The certification means that this is one of the top auto body shops in the city and meets MAACO's highest standards for seamless collision repairs & expert spot painting. The centre's exemplary quality & service represent the "BEST OF THE BEST" in the MAACO chain. MAACO Regina is a Trusted Regina Autobody & Collision center expert. In their latest Regina autobody tip, we share that Maaco is locally owned!
The owners of Maaco Regina is a local business couple Allan & Lisa Mann They would also like to dispel one of the biggest myths about Maaco Regina. People often think because it's a big name you will be treated like a number, not a person. This couldn't be further from the truth. The Mann's live in this community and work hard to ensure each customer gets treated with exceptional hometown service.
We asked what the benefits of being a Maaco franchise are for the local consumer.
Here is what they had to say:
"Being part of the Maaco franchise offers us the ability to get a discount on our paint products, which allows us to pass those savings onto our customers. It also allows us to be a recognized fleet repair facility. Being part of a franchise means that your warranty is good throughout North America, so it does not matter if you move out of Regina, your repairs are guaranteed."
Why Locally Owned Businesses Like Maaco Matter
- Compared to box stores, local businesses recycle a significantly larger share of revenue back into the local economy.
- Local businesses create community-based jobs and often provide higher salaries than large corporations.
- Unique, one-of-a-kind businesses add personality to a world dominated by chain brands.
- Local ownership ensures that key decisions are made by those who actually live in the local community and will inevitably feel the impacts of those decisions.
- Networks of small businesses create healthy competition in the marketplace, driving prices down and keeping products and services more affordable for all.

5 THINGS A CAR OWNER SHOULD DO - TO PREVENT AND HELP IF YOU HAVE AN ACCIDENT
Owning a car is a big responsibility for both new and seasoned drivers. In order to reduce stress further down the line, there are a few key things every driver should know. Luckily, these necessary basics are pretty easy to find out!
Learn the basics of maintenance. That means checking things the oil brake fluid, antifreeze, and windshield wiper fluid. Even better, learn to jump your car in case the battery dies and replace a tire. Everything you learn becomes a tool in case of emergency. Why not invest a little bit of time for less of a headache later on?
Find your car’s manual and read it. Read it again! Put it in a place where you can easily locate it again. Why? There is a lot of information specifically for your make, model, and year. Your manual will tell you which maintenance tasks should be prioritized, as well as how often those things should be addressed. Some critical ones to keep in mind are oil changes, wiper blade replacement, filter changes, fluid flushes, and when to get new tires. In addition, it will tell you what each light on the dash indicates.
Know where your personal identification is, who your insurance provider is, and where the documentation for insurance and registration is stored at. It’s simple enough to keep it in your car, and that will certainly do the job. But in the case of an emergency, the last thing you want to do is have to go digging through the glove box, center console, and through all the other cubbies and pockets your car has just to find it. Do yourself a favor, and keep it in one spot so that you can find it and reach it easily.
Put an emergency kit in your trunk. Jumper cables, a flashlight, spare tire, and a first aid kit are incredibly important. Consider also including some weather specific gear like sunscreen, a towel, blankets, umbrellas, etc. Safety first!
