Jerry and Shirley Gulick founded Gulick’s Auto Body in Novato in 1967, building a reputation for quality craftsmanship and honest service. Their son, Ken, developed a passion for auto repair at a young age, spending countless hours in the shop before officially joining the family business. After years of dedication, the shop continued to grow, becoming a trusted name in the Petaluma community.
For over 50 years, Gulick’s has remained a family-founded, locally rooted business committed to delivering exceptional auto body repair. Our stock in trade is your confidence in us—before you hand us the keys to your car, you can be sure you’ve made the right choice.
At Gulick’s, our dedication to excellence goes beyond repairs—it’s about staying ahead of the curve in an ever-evolving industry. Our technicians are not only I-CAR and ASE certified but also continuously trained in the latest auto body technologies and repair methods. This commitment to expertise has earned us the I-CAR Gold Class Standard, a distinction awarded only to shops that exceed industry knowledge and performance benchmarks.
We take pride in our precision and efficiency, maintaining one of the fastest cycle times in the business—meaning we get you back on the road quickly without compromising quality. Attention to detail is ingrained in everything we do, ensuring that every repair is done right the first time.
What truly sets us apart is our team’s dedication. Many of our technicians have been with us for over a decade, with some serving for more than 25 years. That level of experience and consistency is rare in the industry and speaks to the trust, skill, and integrity that define Gulick’s. When you choose us, you’re not just another customer—you’re part of the Gulick’s family.
