A Message From the Owner

Finding experienced repair technicians has become challenging over time, but I still believe there are people out there who take pride in fixing things the right way. Which is why I'm looking for the right person, not just the next available applicant.

We're a small family-owned business that believes in doing quality work and treating customers honestly and respectfully. We don't cut corners. Our customers trust us because we take the time to diagnose problems correctly and timely and stand behind our work.

We're looking for someone who enjoys figuring out how things work, takes pride in making quality repairs, and appreciates being part of a team where everyone's contribution matters.

This isn't a position where you'll be left on your own to learn everything from scratch. I'm looking for someone who already has repair experience and can work independently while becoming familiar with the products and procedures unique to our shop.

Even if your background isn't an exact match but you have solid mechanical repair experience, feel free to reach out. I'd much rather have a conversation with the right person than miss the opportunity to meet someone who could become a valuable part of our team.

If that sounds like the kind of place you'd enjoy working, I'd be happy to meet you.

I look forward to hearing from you.
