Awesome customer service!!!
Excellent service as always! Trustworthy, reliable, honest, great communication. No pressure just great service.
Love the staff at The Garage! Always honest about the work that needs to be done!
It's great to be able to have quality work done by good friends.
When you find an auto shop you trust, you go back. I’ll never trust my vehicles with anyone else. Honest and reliable! The give you the whole story and let you decide, no scare tactics, no upsell. I gave them 5 stars only because 10 wasn’t an option. If you need work done, trust The Garage
Excellent communication and customer service!
This team has been taking care of my family’s vehicles for nearly twenty years. We keep coming back to The Garage because we know and trust the people there. They’re straight shooters, do quality work, and treat our vehicles as if they were their own. I don't hesitate to recommend them any chance I get.
Bob and his crew at the garage do a fantastic job of taking care of us. We trust what they say and have no doubts about leaving our vehicles in their hands.
Have used The Garage for all our vehicles the last 8 years and they always do a great job. Staff is extremely courteous and explain clearly the issues and the cost to get them fixed. Highly recommend for oil changes to major engine repairs.
Always have a great experience at the Garage! I have used them for nearly 20 years and they have always done exactly what they said for the exact price quoted with no issues.
Highly recommended, thoroughly explained all the needed repairs. quickly repaired and got me back on the road.
Excellent job always
Absolutely the best! I've trusted them with my oil changes and routine maintenance for years. They're always honest, friendly, and never try to upsell me or take advantage of me as a woman. Great service, fair pricing, and people you can truly trust. Highly recommend!
I've had a lot of bad experiences with mechanics. Poor communication, multiple return trips to "fix" things they didn't get right the first time, money wasted, vehicle never ready when promised, etc. So I was a bit nervous to drop my vehicle off with someone I've never used before. I could give a long list of…
I have needed work on my car for too long, but finally took the plunge and went to The Garage with all of the car's problems. From the first phone call to make an appointement to dropping the car off, texts with updates about my car and finally pick up, the experience was outstanding. The best part, I feel like I…
We've been sent here twice over the years by friends because of The Garage's reputation for honesty, fairness, and great service. The team did not disappoint! Jason was communicative about what my Subaru Ascent needed when I thought it needed the brakes done and it actually turned out to be something else and they…
Truly the best customer service!
A very trustworthy Auto Shop. There’s not a lot of them out there.
The Garage is seriously the best. Out of every auto shop in the greater Birmingham area, I trust them to handle my vehicles the most. They are so kind and helpful, and they never try to upsell me. Plus, they drive me to and from my office on the days I need to leave my car with them. Full service! I recommend them…
The garage has been taking care of our family for over 10 years, and we’ve always had great experiences with them. We’ve needed several repairs over the past year, and each time they’ve been professional, reliable, and easy to work with. This visit stood out even more—when we picked up our son’s car, they had gone…
