About
Family-owned since 1987
Ray Ashby opened this shop with two bays, a borrowed lift and a rule: treat every car like it belongs to your mother. His daughter Dana runs it now, and the rule hasn't changed.
“My dad opened this place with two bays and a rule: treat every car like it belongs to your mother.”
Dana grew up sweeping these floors. She earned her ASE Master certification at 26, ran the service desk for ten years and took over the shop in 2019. Ray still comes in on Fridays to check everyone's work.
We're not the cheapest shop in town and we're not trying to be. We're trying to be the one you trust, which is why we send photos, put prices in writing and tell you when a repair can wait.
