★★★★★We broke down with 12 hours left in our drive home and had our vehicle towed to Nik's shop. He was the only mechanic open in the area that weekend, and we are incredibly grateful he was. Nik immediately began diagnosing the issue.

★★★★★Nic was great, wonderful customer service and most of all, honest! So glad I found him to do my brakes and rotor replacement! I really appreciate the time he spent to make sure all the noises in my car was fixed and the follow-up check up too! Highly recommend and will definitely go back to him in the future!

★★★★★We had our brakes and rotors changed at Niks Auto Repair, and I couldn't be more impressed. Nik took the time to explain everything clearly.

Straight answers

The questions people ask us every week.

Answered here so you are not waiting on a chat reply at 9 pm.

How much is an oil change?
Full synthetic with a multi-point check. European cars from $250 plus tax.
from $180 + tax
How much is the pre-purchase inspection?
Inspection, road test and a photo report you can show the seller.
$175 + tax
Do you do AC refills?
Yes. We check for leaks first, then recharge. A refill on a leaking system is money wasted, so we say so.

Do you do fuel pumps? Brake discs? Mirrors?
Fuel pumps yes. Rotors we replace rather than turn. Mirrors and small body parts, ask; we source and install.
Ask for a quote
What do you need from me for a quote?
Your VIN (on the dash or registration), the symptom, and when you can drop the car. The booking form asks for all three.
