Customer Testimonials

"Fair & Reliable"

“David has worked on four of our family vehicles for the past few years, from replacing worn belts in VWs to installing struts in our Lexus SUV. His competence and broad skillset is impressive, he’s fair, and most of all, he’s reliable and does what he says he’ll do.”

– Brad

"Always Consistent"

“We stopped going to the dealer service department after multiple bad experiences, from forgetting to replace filters to improperly installing a gas tank gasket which posed a major safety issue (leaking fuel). We knew it was time to look elsewhere but other local shops were booked out for weeks. Then a friend recommended David, and we haven’t looked back! He never fails to be on time and his work is always consistent. 5 out of 5 stars for being a true professional.”
