I've had josh Blue Skies Automotive do quite a few services. Josh and his team have gone above and beyond to get me in and and make sure I'm safe on the road. He communicates what the service will be clearly and honestly, he doesn't price spike or try to sell you a service or part you don't need. If you want a good,…

Blue Skies is now my go to mechanic! They did excellent work on my car and got things done quickly. Communication is quick and easy and estimates are easy because I can get them through text or email. I was able to pay online so picking up my car was easy. I would highly recommend them to anybody who needs car repairs

Fast, friendly service. Joshua O was outstanding. If I lived here in Nampa, they would be my “go to” for anything my challenger needs. Simply excellent!

Fast reliable service I appreciated that they were extremely thorough and pointed out a problem I didn’t even know I had that could have potentially caused me more issues later had I not gotten it fixed!

Joshua was great to work with! I brought my truck in with issues to investigate. He clearly explained his diagnosis and costs to fix, and got my okay before proceeding with the work. He even worked over the weekend to get it finished in time for me to leave town on a trip.

This isn't any big brand-name mechanics shop. Blue Skies is a small, local company that is incredibly knowledgeable and will tell you exactly what's wrong with your car. No upselling, no bullcrap, just people who will fix your car and have you on your way.

STOP - read in full! You ever wish you had a reliable, competent, and fair priced mechanic? Well this is the shop. I think this is the highest google rated shop in the valley, and for good reason. Extremely transparent! No BS! And very accommodating. I had struggled with an engine code and had to travel to see…

Joshua was unable to repair my cruise control (car too old, cannot get parts), he did not charge me anything for the diagnosis. He did replace the radiator in the car at a very reasonable cost. Two thumbs up!
