Wonderful experience, gentlemen showed up to help me finish a lower control arm job I was stuck on!

Bailey is great to work with from start to finish! He was able to give me a full run down of all the issues and provide a quote with different options that included part and labor estimates. It’s awesome to work with a mechanic who will “dumb things down for me” and clarify any questions I have for reassurance!

Starter went out on a Saturday morning on my Silverado and I came across Bailey with a quick Google search. Wasn’t expecting a weekend fix. Bailey reached out, came to my house, and squeezed me in at the end of the day which was fantastic to get me back on the road. Great guy, great service, very fair price!

Went above and beyond with more than fair labor rates, and even insisted on helping with replacing something as small as push pins for the fender liners. Helping out with a last minute request at 8:00PM and staying till 9:30PM on a Sunday, to ensure the job was done to his standards. Thank you so much and I hope you enjoy the RedBulls!

Great mechanic! He was fast to reply, got me in less than a day, and did a great job on the work. Very friendly, quick, and reliable. I definitely recommend him if you need work done on your vehicle!

Excellent experience from start to finish. Bailey is very friendly and professional. He showed up right on time and got to work on the brakes on my car. I was given quotes from multiple shops in town and his pricing CAN NOT be beat..AND he comes to you?! It’s hard to find someone to trust but truly he only does work that is necessary. I’m not kidding when I say please do yourself a favor and contact him for any maintenance/repairs on your vehicle. You won’t regret it!

I’ve got some several great relationships locally for trustworthy automative shops that do great work in town. Most were past clients from a previous job, so I been lucky to get to know some great people. Those 4-5 shops have been my go to for over 10 years locally here in CR. With as busy as I’ve become the one thing that I haven’t had much luck with is finding someone flexible enough to provide a high quality, professional, fair priced, and trustworthy service until I met Bailey. I’ve had him at the house twice now and getting ready to scheduled number 3 as we work through a list of things I want to make sure I get handled over the next year. Top notch. Couldn’t be happier.
