One of the few honest, knowledgeable & professional auto mechanics around. They work hard to work with your schedules. And they’re fast!
Super friendly staff, accommodated me despite the fact that I wasn’t on time, quickly diagnosed and fixed a kind of obscure problem, ended up charging me less than their original estimate, and left a cute little treat for me when I got my car back. I feel very lucky to discover that I live so close to this place and…
Budd & Co got my car taken care of quickly. The staff were friendly and communicated well with me. Would definitely recommend!
Great work always dependable!
I love Budd's! In addition to excellent service, the staff provide friendly, truly respectful, transparent information about what is needed, and can help prioritize repairs for folks like me who need to triage expensive repairs. I've been trusting Budd's with my cars over 40 years; so glad they are still here for us.
Im so happy to have found Budd & Co! Excellent service, solid prices, great work. The team there couldn’t be nicer and my car is back running like it should be.
Budd & Co. are thorough when they do mechanical work. Each time I’ve had a concern, they find the underlying issue and the car drives better than before. Friendly team and great service!
Great repair shop! Knowledgeable, fast, reliable and fair pricing. Repair shop for life.

These guys are the only place I trust with my older car. If they can’t find the part they can install it when I find it. Great guys!
