Mark’s one of those rare old-fashioned auto mechanics who knows what he’s doing and doesn’t over charge or overwork. I wish I’d found him 20 years ago!

Got friend's car bumper repaired for $1200 where other quoted $3000 or more. Mike was very professional and understanding as a person. His service was excellent. Today I came to know that he has retired and the business will retire next year. The news truly broke my heart. I wish him happy retirement.

This shop did an amazing job of finding the problem with my car in just a couple of days after another shop couldn’t find it for nearly three weeks! Good pricing and great communication. I’ll be back!
