THE BEST!!!!! They replaced my breaks and they were one of the cheaper shops in town. They also have excellent reviews! I was pleased with the work. They let me know another issue my car had and fixed it for a very reasonable price. Thank you again Dave Power! We will be taking all our cars here from now on!!!!!

Needed a bunch of boat trailer work done. The trailer company that manufactured the original trailer was out of business so they couldn’t get replacement parts. They did a lot of research to come up with a good solution that worked. Very thorough when I picked up the trailer and going through and showed me the parts…
