About Us

Providing Expert & Honest Auto Repair Service Since 2012

Our History

Our mission was to create a family owned automotive and diesel repair shop that offered a wide range of repairs on Domestic and Import vehicles, including cars, suvs and light trucks.

Our philosophy from the very beginning was to offer a FAIR PRICE and NEVER selling anyone something the vehicle doesn’t need to stay safe and reliable! We wanted to create a repair business that was friendly, casual and non-pressure, that put customers at ease when looking to get their vehicle repaired.
