Gagne's Garage is a family-owned auto garage with 20+ years in the Ware/Gilbertville/Hardwick township areas, which came recommended to me by another quality local shop, the Balicki family's Balicki Auto. I'm grateful to get local recommendations because it helps me build up local business with people who need and deserve it. The Gagne Garage is absolutely worth it.
The proprietor, Gary, did his best to accommodate all the needs my busy life requires: I had to tow it there, I needed to approve over the phone without an invoice in hand, and I wasn't sure exactly what was wrong with my car.
When I entered the Gagne garage, I was impressed by the size. From the road right by the post office, you can see up their street to their billboard, which is on the outer left wall from the front door. From the outside, the building is underground, which balances the heat and hides the large inside where work is done. In the office, I saw award after award for years of work. When he told me my car was driving like a Cadillac, I was so grateful to find that he was right.
After a few days during the busy Memorial Day season, he got time to diagnose the problem with my car, get parts, do the fixes, and all for a price that stunned me by how much I had expected it doubled.
All things considered, I pray nobody has to double their price just to make a living, or double their income just to fix a car. However, the work the Gagne Garage performed was so foundational in its expertise that I was certain I was getting something worth beyond however method they used to cheapen their labor and expertise to dollars. The feeling of trust you need in your car is priceless, and this team restored it for me. Thank you. read more
