Precision Collision Service
Where quality workmanship is the number one priority By Jennifer Coates
for this successful and enduring business. All three men, with Pelosi as a consultant, are committed to providing an outstanding experience to their customers, both new and old. On any given day at this busy auto shop, there are vehicles up on lifts and technicians studying every detail of damage, matching paint samples in the shop’s sophisticated paint room or putting the finishing touches on a major repair. Though the shop changed ownership, Gibb kept on some of Pelosi’s most skilled technicians including crew members Leo Gonsalves and Robert Christopher. Meet Tim Gibb and Corey Smith, the new owners of Precision Collision Service on Wellington Avenue in Cranston.
For business partners and close friends Tim Gibb and Corey Smith, April 27 was a milestone day; for Lou Pelosi, the longtime owner of Precision Collision Service in Cranston, it was a sentimental one. April 27 was a day of beginnings and endings for these three men as the final signatures were penned on the “purchase of sale” that officially transferred ownership of Precision Collision from Pelosi to Gibb and Smith. Today, this landmark business on Wellington Avenue has two new owners - and a new start. Precision Collision Service, a highly reputable auto body and repair shop which first opened its doors in 1996, is home to a talented crew of technicians who use the most advanced technology to repair today’s most advanced vehicles. As Tim Gibb, an experienced auto technician with well over 38 years in the industry, explains: “If it has wheels, we will do the work”! Working alongside Gibb to keep the wheels rolling at Precision is Corey Smith, a hard-working and dedicated CPA and CFO of a national logistics company who joined forces with Gibb to make both of their entrepreneurial dreams a reality. Together, they are a formidable team which has devoted the past year to working with Pelosi to make a smooth transition
