Paulin's is the only place I take my car to in southern Maine!…read more They're so honest! I really don't know much about cars, so in the past, people have tried to take advantage of that. Due to that matter, I kept going to my regular garage in my hometown...which is 5 hours north. Now when I need something fixed or an inspection, I only go to Paulin's. Their pricing is more than fair, and they won't fix something unless they truly need to. I have had multiple instances where I have gone in for tiny, itty, bitty problems, and they have taken care of me at no or little charge. Any garage could have taken advantage of that and could have charged me for something I didn't need, but not Paulin's. Because of their great service and integrity Paulin's gets 5 stars in my book.

This business was different from beginning to end. The owner is a great guy and makes you feel comfortable and heard. Really awesome customer service, very upfront, and very fair pricing.

These guys really know their stuff and it was awesome being able to bounce ideas and troubleshooting off them. I don't live in the area, but would 100% recommend to all with car troubles.

They were able to fit us in within the hour and gave us recommendations on what to do until then. Turns out there was nothing visibly wrong with the tire, no holes or anything, so they couldn't do anything on the spot. They didn't charge for the inspection and filling up the tire. We very much appreciated their help and are glad to know we can wait until we get back to deal with the tire instead of worry all weekend. We definitely recommend and would come back if we have a problem (hopefully we don't). Very friendly, great service.

I was…read morestressed out and did not want to be stuck at the dealership all day, but luckily I found Cumberland Ave Garage! AAA came to jump my car, and when that didn't solve the problem they towed me here. I didn't know what to expect, but I was so pleased by the kindness and promptness of the team here. I had no appointment and understood I could be without a car for a few days. But within 48 hours my car was working and back to me again. Things that stood out-their team is direct and goes above and beyond for you! They told me everything that I needed to know about my car troubles (ultimately a new battery) and things that I should look into (due for oil change and state inspection). They did all of this work for a reasonable price and I know I'll be coming back here in the future (hopefully with a scheduled appointment and not a breakdown). I highly recommend getting your car serviced here :) The do a great job, and it's walking distance to many great coffee and breakfast options if you have time to kill.

The prices they charge are exorbitant. Priced well over a fair market value for most shops locally.read more
