They've worked w/me on arrangements if the work HAD to be done immediately, but I didn't have all the money. Many times I've paid less than what the quote was also.

It is hard to find someone you feel comfortable with as a mechanic. I moved to Hastings 6 years ago…read moreand have used local dealerships and a couple other local shops for service work. One even told me after he stripped my oil pan drain plug it was because I had my oil changed way to often ( every 3000 miles )so my pan wore out so he wouldn't fix it. Funny he didn't mention that when he was changing it in all of my cars before. So I went back to changing my own oil from then on. I needed some work done that I could not do as oil changes is about as handy as I am. I went to Yelp to get some ideas. Asked for for estimates. Several got back to me and some made some stupid suggestions. Except for Kristy and Tim. I had them do the work and it was done very fast, very reasonable and happy with the results. Tim makes sure that you know what you need and what can wait. He doesn't try to talk you into any un needed work. He explains everything very well. Tim is a very nice guy. His wife gave me a ride home because my truck had to stay a day or two. She was very friendly and is also a mechanic. If you haven't tried Tims Repair then next time give them a try. I think you will be pleased. Tim will be getting all my cars from now on.

I'm so tired of the high pressure shops that try to sell you service and products you don't need,…read moreand their only goal is to extract the maximum amount of money from your wallet per visit. It was really refreshing doing business with a shop that conducts business with honesty and integrity. I bought some tires from Rick, and he wrote the quote himself. When I came in to have the tires installed, he wasn't poking around under my hood trying to find something else to sell me. He asked me if I wanted him to inspect my truck, and when I said it wasn't necessary, he just installed the tires and that was that. I was allowed to watch my tires being installed, and while I was there, several other customers came in and Rick attended to them personally. It's not a fancy shop; just a plain no frills low overhead shop that doesn't spend your money with sales men, fancy gimmicks and tricky tactics. It's really "my kind of shop" and I hope Rick never changes as I like his way. I intend to give him much more business in the future.

I had an unfortunate experience during what should have been a basic oil change on my F-150. The…read moreservice included a brake inspection, and my wheels have security lugs. I was told I needed new rear brakes, so I planned to replace them myself on Saturday, 12/29/25. When I went to start the job, my security socket was nowhere to be found. So much for my Saturday project. The shop was closed for the weekend, so I couldn't resolve it. I met with the owner, Dan, on Monday. He ordered a new set of security lugs in hopes that the key would work. It did not. The tech had misplaced my original key during the brake inspection. Needless to say, it was a major inconvenience--and I didn't receive so much as an apology from the owner. This was my experience as a first-time customer.
