THE BEST!

This place is the BEST! I was told by another garage that I needed all of this work done on my car. I went here as a friend recommended me to them, and all they could find was one problem! At the end of the day, I paid a little over $100.00, where the work the other garage was telling me would be over $1200 totaled together. My car runs perfect and they even had me my car by the end of the day where as the other garage said I would have to wait a week for it! I WILL ONLY HAVE MY CAR WORKED ON BY THESE GUYS AND YOU SHOULD TOO!

PIZZA LOVER

I left my vehicle there to be inspected. He called me to tell me that my wheel bearing was bad. I appreciated that call very much. The bearing was replaced and vehicle inspected. All was done in a timely manner. I have recommended this outfit to others.



They are excellent with small engines.

they know what is wrong with them immediately. I was pleased with their service and price.

Use at your own Risk

They are extremely misleading.

I was quoted a price to have my car made like new and was told it would get done within a specific time frame.

Not a single expectation was met.

They also didn't keep an accurate record for what was done.

The receipt was purposely confusing.

He supposedly did favors by not charging me for some things, but then he would charge $200 for a battery. The bill made no sense.

It came to shouting and a police escort to get the rest of my parts off his property.

In the end it just was not worth keeping my car. It's sad because it was the car I had always wanted and paid for all by myself.

He built up my hopes and then completely shattered them.

I am not the only one he has screwed over. My next door neighbor went through something similar before she became my neighbor.

The place is a joke.

No wonder in an area where mechanics charge $70 an hour, he is charging $35 an hour.

He is NOT worth it.

First off, before you critize this business, why dont you tell both sides of the story? There is more to those stories than they are telling. We have had over 500 customers in the past year and a half we have been open, and out of that many, we have only had 3 complaints. Complaints because the people wouldnt pay their bills and we did what we had to do to get what was owed. We cant work for free and wont work for free. Before any one judges us, ask around to people or even stop in and you will see the complete opposite of what these ex-customers are saying. The reason we were $35 now currently $45 was because we know how many people are struggling in this economy and wanted nothing more than to give people a break, as we know what they are going through. We do honest and truthful work. We will charge for parts, yes, but you are still getting it cheaper than most places. Also, making threats to the owner or anything like that is uncalled for. That goes to show you how mature some people are. Give us a chance, come on over and stop by. WE ARE WORTH IT!

Waste of time.

These guys take forever!



If you need more than a simple repair or inspection, look elsewhere.

We may take a little longer than other people for customers but we are only following Vermont State rules. We have to take cars for road tests and make sure everything works before we can place a sticker on it. If you want an unsafe car and not be told whats wrong or have someone not check everything and you get hurt because of it, what are you going to do them? ALso, not to mention if you make an appointment being the type of garage we are, you get in and out asap. We cant make every one happy but we sure do try.
