How does a mobile mechanic work?

You tell us what the car's doing and where it's parked. We come to it with the tools and the diagnostic equipment and do the work there — your driveway, your workplace, an apartment lot or the roadside. No drop-off, no waiting room.

What areas do you cover?

Tampa, New Tampa, Temple Terrace, Brandon, Riverview, Wesley Chapel, Lutz and Land O' Lakes.

Do you have a shop or is it all mobile?

Both. Most repairs happen at your car. For jobs that need a lift or more than a day, we have a shop, and the same people do the work. We arrange getting it there.

What kind of job has to go to the shop?

Anything needing a lift or more than a day on the car. We'll tell you before we start rather than getting halfway through your driveway and stopping.

What vehicles do you work on?

All makes and models — domestic, Japanese, Korean and European.

Do you do emergency and roadside work?

Yes, within our hours. The one condition is that the location has to be safe to work in. A parking lot or driveway is fine; a narrow shoulder in live traffic isn't, and we'll say so.

Do you offer a warranty?

Yes, on parts supplied by us. If you supply your own parts we'll fit them, but the warranty then sits with whoever sold them to you.

Can you work in an apartment or office parking lot?

Yes, and a lot of our work happens exactly there. A level parking space with room around the car is all we need.

Do I need to be there while you work?

Not for the whole job. Plenty of customers hand over the keys and carry on. We'll call before doing anything that changes the price.

How much is a diagnostic?

$95. If you have us do the repair, the full $95 comes off the final bill.

Are your prices the total or just labor?

The listed prices are labor only. Parts are quoted separately for your exact vehicle before any work starts.

Do you do pre-purchase inspections?

Yes. $150 booked online, $175 otherwise. About 45 minutes, with a written report and photos.

How can I tell if a mobile mechanic is legitimate?

Ask for the price before any work starts, look them up on Google and read reviews that describe real jobs, ask about insurance and warranty, and ask to see the old parts. Our list of questions to ask covers each one.

Do you fix car air conditioning?

Yes. We find the leak, recharge the system or replace the failed part at your car, and you have the price before any work starts.

Do you fix overheating?

Yes. Radiators, hoses, thermostats, water pumps and radiator fans, done where the car is parked. You have the price before any work starts.

If I don't go ahead with the repair, do I still pay the $95?

Yes. The $95 pays for the diagnosis itself. It's credited toward the repair only when we do the work.

Does the $125 battery price include the battery?

No. $125 is the labor. We quote the right battery for your car first, so you know the full price before we start.
