A Dream At 18, His Reality Today: Walker's Collision Repair Opens A Second Branch

It’s normal for young boys to dream of driving fast cars and fixing up customized rides. A less common, yet fairly similar, goal is to get into the auto repair industry.  For a young Paul Walker, however, he was determined to follow his passion and started out in auto repair as early as 18 years old by painting cars in his grandfather’s barn.

“Growing up on a farm, I loved taking things apart, whether it was a tractor or another piece of equipment, and putting them back together.”

Paul grew up from a simple family but he never let that pose as a limitation. He worked hard and accepted help from people who loved him. This all paid off in 1990 when Walker’s Collision Repair opened its first facility in Seymour. Paul’s success continues till this day as he opened a second Walker’s Collision Repair facility in West Knoxville just last December 2015.

“I hope to be an example to inspire others to go after their dreams and to know that the American dream does still exist today.”

The team behind Walker’s Collision Repair understands and fully takes to heart their mission to never compromise on quality or service. Anyone who has experienced bringing in his or her vehicle can see it in the detailed auto repair from start to finish, with utmost attention given each time. Every interaction with a client is also evaluated and inputted in their systems to ensure unparalleled service and ease for the client throughout the entire auto repair process.

Walker’s Collision Repair ensures their attention to detail, updated facilities and equipment to carry out the highest quality service possible. They even have an aluminum clean room which is a quarantined area dedicated only for aluminum work such as welding, bonding, sanding, and other procedures on aluminum.

Walker’s Collision Repair promises to deliver a lifetime guarantee with every repair. They surpass most auto repair facilities in the nation for certifications, skill, and training of their team.
