How it works

You drop the keys.
We send the texts.

Lindsi Hansen put it in her Google review: "I got regular text updates on the progress of my car." That's the whole posture — you go back to your day, your phone keeps you in the loop.

01 — Drop off

Hand over the keys.

Walk in or call ahead at (713) 587-6859. We'll log your car and start a text thread with you on the spot.

02 — Diagnose

We tell you what we find.

Factory-grade diagnostics, then a real human texts you what's wrong, what it costs, and what's optional.

03 — Approve

Nothing happens without a yes.

You see the parts and labor before we turn a wrench. No surprise add-ons at pickup. Ever.

04 — Pickup

Out front when promised.

Backed by 36-month / 36,000-mile nationwide warranty. Drive off knowing it's done right.

Three actual neighbors,
by name.

Pulled verbatim from our Google profile. No edits, no paraphrasing.

Heather, Gene, Kurt and their team are fantastic. Always reliable, great communication and fair. I really appreciate their honesty! I cannot wait for the space next door to open!

(That's 1618. It's open now.)

These guys know their stuff and are very thorough. And customer care is phenomenal. Reasonably priced as well. I take my car here for everything.
