Amazing service from Hayley and the team! Appreciate how they communicated with... me about what repairs needed to be done and why. They also found, and fixed, a few things that another garage had supposedly repaired. Have now started taking our second vehicle to them for maintenance. 5 out of 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️read more

I recently had need to use budget after receiving a very high estimate from a... local dealership . After being to.d by several friends that the cost was out of line I called Budget. Hailly answered the phone and apologized for not being able to give me an estimate because it was so late in the day. She promised to call first thing in the morning. Surprise right and early the next morning she did indeed phone with a very reasonable estimate. I was booked in two days later. I ended up being two hours late due to ferry issues. When I finally arrived they were pleasant cheerful and assurred me they would still be able to fix my vehicle. They called an hour later to tell me I didn’t need half the work the dealership had told me . My price dropped from 2,240.00 to 224.00!! Honesty and integrity! I’m sure the other place saw me as an older woman they could hose. Budget saved me a great deal of money and we’re so friendly and easy to deal with !! They do all mechanical repairs and will be my go to moving forward! I’ll be telling everyone especially my women friends this is the place to go ! Thank you Budget!!read more

Shanon K.
I was very happy that I was able to get in without an appointment as I could... tell their schedule was full but they went out of their way to get me in and I appreciated that very much. Everyone I spoke too was personable and kind and I wouldn't hesitate to bring my vehicle there again. My only wish is that for a big spend, there would be a carwash as well but not a big deal. My car is driving SOOO much better, thank you!read more
Beth H.
The staff were pleasant and very helpful. After inspecting my car, they called... with a list of issues that needed attention. I couldn't afford all the repairs in one go so they explained in further detail to help my prioritize my choices.When I returned to pick up my car, I left my phone in the cab I'd taken to their shop. They called the cab company from the shop phone and, when the cab dispatcher told me they'd have to check with the driver and call back, they took the call on my behalf and arranged to have my phone dropped off while I waited.Service above and beyond as far as I'm concerned.read more

Great place! I had two different vehicles checked out here (one I was selling,... one I was buying) and they caught a bunch of stuff I would have had to pay for later if I had just gone off the dealer checks. They were so thorough!So, I brought them "Chuggy" my 1978 RV that needed a LOT of love. She drives fantastic now. I really cannot recommend these guys enough.read more
