Highly recommend! Requested an appointment. Appreciate the prompt response. Walked in and was processed efficiently by Ziggie Maxwell who also took care of our car. Met owner, Godfrey, who is kind & helpful especially made sure we were comfortable & explained how to get a Toyota recall fixed and the importance of getting this corrected & done. Thank you Godfrey & Ziggie for a pleasant wonderful, Smog Test experience. Started to recommend your business to family & friends including this review. Keep up the great work! Thank you too for the refreshment while waiting. GOD BLESS & prosper your business! GOD'S BEST!!! Radiant Ruby read more

An absolutely great experience. This is a very small shop, they are right next-door to the Chevron/Baskin-Robbins on Folsom Boulevard, just west of Mather Field Road. I had a Groupon, and I showed up on a Friday about an hour before closing. As I mentioned, it is a small shop, so they can only do one car at a time. There were like three or four people waiting, so I said I would just come back first thing in the morning. I came back at opening time, and got right in. I was helped by Godfrey. Very professional, very personable, very friendly. We chatted a bit as he was doing the paperwork. My car goes in for the smog check, and unfortunately, it didn't pass. I had just changed the battery yesterday, and that had basically "rebooted" the Car's computer. He said I needed to drive the car about 50 miles or so, to bring the computer back to where it needed to be, so that it would pass the test. I drove 45 miles "up the hill" to Pollock Pines to look at all of the pretty brand, new snow, and then brought the car back. This time, it passed with flying colors. We finished the paperwork and I was out the door. This was a very good shop, everybody was professional, and friendly, I would come here for a smog check again. Thank you. read more

They were quick and friendly. I was on a lunch break for work. They are tucked away in a business complex off Sunrise blvd near the Pick N Pull. read more

Quick easy smog visit with great pricing! I was in and out within an hour. Def recommend.

Quick, friendly, and reasonable. Hard to find, but worth it when you need it! We had two cars to smog, in and out in about a half hour on a Saturday afternoon. read more

Great experience and efficient service with a great price On time scheduled appointment read more

This is the best SMOG shop experience I can remember having. The shop is clean, the waiting room is clean, the service is quick and efficient and the value is great. I was able to walk-in and be done and back on the road in under 40 minutes with a car ahead of me. I will be back! read more

Drove in, asked to come inside. Within 10 minutes my smog was done. They honored the coupon that I presented. The guy at the front desk didn't feel welcoming though! No smile!. But I'm not taking out stars for that, want to give them another try and I'll come back to update the review. read more

Solid, they SMOG your car. Pretty quick in and out shop. They get the job done just like advertised

WOW, the new owner, Godfrey, is amazing! I've never enjoyed the experience of getting my car smogged until now. The moment I walked in the door, he greeted me with a warm smile. There was a small glitch in the test, and Godfrey spoke with the technician and showed genuine care about providing excellent service. This is the only SMOG shop I'm using from now on, and I'm telling people too. Pass it on! read more

Welcoming and quick service. Reasonable charges. The technician explained the details. Recommend this place.

Thanks for the great service. It's not easy to find a place with appointment available. You guys made it happen and the service was fast. Thanks :) read more

Godfrey is a legend, he is going to make this shop a 5 star gem in the area. Fair prices and gets the job done flawlessly. If you are in the area I strongly recommend getting your smog tested here. Wish you more and more success sir. read more

New owner is fantastic! place got renovated, nice clean waiting room. quick n easy in n out smog!

Don't go anywhere else. This is your smog shop The owner helped me figure out the failing issues with my 20yr old car. Like having to go through a specific drive cycle the BMW requires so the sensors can get the data they need. Ended up being a stuck thermostat. After had it replaced it passed smog no problem. The owner helped me figure things out. Honest and genuinely wants to provide a great service to his customers. read more

Appreciated they fit me in at the end of the day. Quick service. In and out in under 20 minutes. Good pricing also. Will come here again.

Godfrey was great! The service man went to lunch early leaving me waiting. Godfrey and I had nice conversation while I waited for less than 30 minutes including the smog. Very quick! Wish Godfrey good luck with this new business! read more

Quick and friendly service! My mom needed a place to take her car for a smog and they responded very quickly to my inquiry on here

Always a great experience coming here. Nice staff and quick work. I highly recommend them.

Great service, quick service. Would go back 1 million times over. Went there for a Smog. They did a pre check and I was still in and out

Excellent and quick and friendly service I would highly recommend bringing your vehicle here very clean environment and very knowledgeable

This is the place to go for a smog test. Business owner was very friendly. Waiting room was clean. The job was done very quickly and the price was definitely right. Will be going back and telling my friends read more

Got my cars star smog done here for $48!!! Great deal. Took 20 mins max for tech to do his thing. I chilled in the lobby. Will come back in 2 years again. read more

*:*¨¨*:*..*:* ABSOLUTELY 5 STARS*:*..*:*¨¨*:*. This shop is conveniently located at the far right side of a multi-business center, right next to a gas station. Parking is in the back. My check-in at the counter was quick and efficient, and my smog test took about 35 minutes because a couple of other customers were already in the lobby ahead of me. Upon checking out, I had the pleasure of meeting Godfrey, the owner, who was exceptionally helpful and personable. He made the transaction easier by accepting my multiple payment methods. I genuinely enjoyed a conversation with him, when I mentioned I was looking for work, Godfrey shared valuable career advice and took a real interest in my background, even offering helpful pointers since we had similar college degrees (he holds a master's). I left feeling truly appreciated as a customer and will absolutely return here for all my future service needs. read more

I am so happy I found this place. They have amazing service, they are quick, excellent prices & nice people

very professional and nice. Very cheap using the coupon on their Website. It was fast and easy. Highly recommend.

Is it possible to have an AMAZING smog experience - turns out, YES!!! I wish it was possible to give 110 stars. Phenomenal customer service, the gentlemen at the register was so polite, helpful & I enjoyed my conversation with him. The mechanic who I spoke with (shortly) was also very polite, something under the hood was disconnected & he asked my permission to re-attach it. On top of wonderful customer service (pricing on the low end of smog's as well), I skipped coffee this morning, regretted it and hallelujah - they had decaf for the keurig in the lobby! 110 stars - thank you so much! read more

This location is under new management as of June 2025 and the new owner is very personable, professional and understands good customer service! Their pricing is fair and lobby is clean. Their location is a bit hard to find, but it's directly next to Chevron once you enter the lot! I'd definitely use these guys anytime you need a SMOG test done! read more

No wait, no hidden extra charges. No truck or lifted vehicle charge. Fast friendly and professional... read more

See all

Was turned away from another business because they weren't star certified, this was one of the closest places. With no appointment the whole thing probably took fifteen minutes. The man at the front desk was so nice and professional. They had a coupon, so it was very reasonably priced. The technician pulled the car around for me when he was done. Would highly recommend! read more

After new management and owner. I gave it a second tried. He kept his words by giving me a discount after I left a bad review the first time with old management. Udo is friendly, patient, and willing to listen to your story. He also have refreshment drinks and coffee while waiting for your vehicle to get smog. The shop is clean and fast in and out. He also has a tech that works for him. I recommend anyone to give him a try after he took over the smog shop. Thank you! read more

Great experience getting my smog check done here. The staff was friendly, professional, and got me in and out quickly. Everything was explained clearly, and the process was smooth with no pressure or upselling. Definitely a reliable place I'd come back to again. read more

Place was neat , clean and organized. Both, owner and technician were very tentative. Great customer service.

This is by far the best smog check experience I have! This place just had a new management so don't let the bad reviews scare you. The service only took 15 mins, the price was amazing. There are beverages and snacks available. The waiting area is clean. Godfrey was super helpful and polite. Would come back again :) read more

Fantastic place. Super quick work. Done in 15 minutes instead of the projected time of 30. Got Smog done and new Car Registration. Recommend by my son as some friends recommended them to him. Now they have 5 new customers. Not expensive either. Really made my day.. read more

Excellent customer service. Very thorough and speedy. Excellent price value. When I called him he was very patient with me as well.

SMOG. Quality service with friendly service throughout. It was inexpensive. I will return as this is about my fourth time, only I brought my 2005 Audi last time. read more

This guy is extremely rude. I've dealt with him twice, and both times, he was rushing me and in a hurry. The way he speaks with people is extremely rude, and there's several smog places right up the street that aren't unprofessional like this horrible business owner. I would drive for an hour to not have to deal with this guy. He also charges significantly more than other places in the area. The facility is extremely dirty on the inside. You feel like it's infested with roaches and like he lives out of the back of the shop. He seems really miserable and like he wants you to be just as miserable. Do yourself a favor and save some money going somewhere else. read more

STAY AWAY !!! Unprofessional. Extremely rude. Terrible service. Would never ever come back or recommend. STAY AWAY !!!! Also they use fake picture here's what it actually looks like. read more
