TIME LINE @ ENGLAND BROS…read more 4/13/26 brought to shop Paul said grandpa had one just like it Was thrilled to work on it. 6/22/26 picked it up Paul said he did the brake job (bleeding the brake lines) but wouldn't charge me since it took so long & couldn't complete all that I wanted done. He didn't bleed the brakes even though he SAID he had. I can't stress this enough. I knew it as I was pulling out onto John Stark Hwy. when my foot went to the floor trying to stop for traffic. In between April 13 & June 22? It was raining. It snowed. He was sick. He got behind in his jobs. It rained again. He was behind again. He was starting today. It rained. He was gonna do it tomorrow for sure & thanks for being so understanding. He'd call as soon as it was done. After a week I called him. He said he was on it. He'd call in a few days when it was done. It rained. I left a message that if he can't do it please just call & let me know so I can move on. I called 2 days later & he said I was on his call list & he just can't do the job. April 13-June 22. I was kind. I never yelled. I was understanding. When I went to pick it up he said the brakes were indeed bled but no charge for my trouble & for being so patient. Gave me a safety inspection sticker. A SAFETY INSPECTION STICKER. No longer required in NH but I wanted to be sure I was good to go. Knowing FULL WELL he hadn't done my brakes & just let me drive away. EDIT TO SAY: Just went out to check things out (it was raining yesterday when I picked it up) and found the ORIGINAL LIST I had given Paul. bleed brakes (price given $127), safety check, fix gas gauge, new battery for engine to include new mount, de-winterize it ($127), blow out the vents (n/c), attach front plate (wasn't done when I got there but he had his guy do it) and NONE OF THIS WAS DONE. What WAS done was muddy footprints & dirt everywhere, seats taken apart & not put back together, and a drawer that doesn't close now. It was clean when I brought it in. Everything in place. And now.....? What a MESS!

His business is out of the way for me but, it's worth the added drop off and pick up time because I know I can trust him. I do most of my own work on my vehicles so I know them well. I've actually had one other local mechanic suggest that my car needed rear brakes and were at 10%, when I had just changed the pads not 500 miles prior. Tom hits the work that needs to be done and advises on options to keep the price down when choices are possible. He doesn't usually answer the phone. Leave a message and he'll get back to you.

We settled in for the day knowing they were busy and knowing we needed new tires for winter on one of the cars (for which we already had quotes from other tire shops). Inspection came back with our tires just under... Trice then walked us through options comparable to what we had quoted and said they could take care of it, the alignment and the inspection right then. They were professional, kind, accommodating and thorough... we asked for above and beyond, we packed our patience and the crew at VIP Claremont delivered.
