  • We are a small operation, meaning we offer a level of one on one involvement in the repair or build process that you won’t find at other shops. Additionally, we aren’t afraid to work with you on large projects, or use parts you’ve sourced yourself, (However, parts from home don’t allow us to offer the same warranties on parts and labor, or fitment guarantees that parts we have sourced for you would have)

  • You can contact us any time through phone, text, email, or various social medias! For your convenience here is our phone and email:

  • We offer standard pricing based on how many hours it takes us to complete the work on your vehicle. Your initial quote will have a rough estimate of how long the labor will take, but that number is subject to change based on the actual labor time. Our labor rate is $125 an hour, with a small charge based on the size of the job to cover consumable materials. The benefits of this pricing method over other shops that offer “flat-rate“ billing is that our mechanics never have to feel like they need to rush on completing a job, ensuring the highest quality results.

  • There’s a few methods we can use to get your vehicle here: we can help you arrange a tow if your vehicle doesn’t run; or, we can accept delivery of your vehicle up to 3 days before your scheduled service date. We are located in Gig Harbor Washington, about 10 minutes from the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.
