Frequently Asked Questions

What types of vehicles do you service?

+
We service most makes and models, including domestic and foreign vehicles. From everyday commuters to performance cars, our technicians have the training and tools to handle it.

Do I need an appointment or can I just show up?

+
Walk-ins are always welcome at both locations. If you'd prefer to schedule ahead and minimize wait time, you can submit a service request through our website and we'll confirm a time with you.

How long do most repairs take?

+
Routine maintenance like oil changes and brake inspections are often completed the same day. More involved repairs depend on parts availability and the scope of work — we'll always give you a realistic timeline upfront before we start.

Will I get an estimate before any work begins?

+
Yes, always. We provide a full estimate before touching your vehicle. No surprise charges, no work done without your approval.

Are you a dealership or an independent shop?

+
We're a family-owned independent shop, which means you get dealership-level diagnostics and equipment without dealership prices. You also deal directly with the owners, not a service advisor chasing a commission.
