Brett has the most conscientious and experienced staff and provides the best customer service in town - hands down.

Jan Nutting

Great service ???? we were given a quote up front and they were honest about not needing to change out our belts. Honest mechanics are hard to find. We appreciate the transparency of pricing too. The sign up on the wall says how much the hourly rate is, no hidden fees. Very friendly staff as well.

Danielle Garrand

Outstanding! I expected a massive amount of work to be needed, but nothing other than an oil change and solid info about the other issues (which turned out to not really be the issues I thought they were). I will always take my car here, these guys really are great & honest!

Diane Dennis

HIGHLY recommend them cause I could drop my car never meet them and they fixed everything and surpassed EVERY expectation that I had in fixing the issues with my vehicle.... I will NEVER go anywhere else... Thank you Brett and MANY blessings to you and your staff!!! GREAT JOB!!!!

Took it in and Bret gave me a call a few hrs later, told me the cost and said it'd be ready later that day. Great guy n great business. Been with him since 1996 when I got my 1st car!

Michael Smith

Old truck that was towed in to the shop. Diagnosis was a sensor. Ordered part, installed, and the engine once again was running. Good job and the customer service was excellent.

Harry Frost

Have been here several times. Always pleased. My previous place of employment had several DVM's that used them also for many years. Quality service you can trust.
