I Can Come to You

Won’t start? Stuck in your driveway? For a lot of jobs I’ll bring the tools to you.

Where the work happens

Three ways I can help, whichever fits the job.

I’m one guy, but I’m not stuck in one spot. Most jobs happen at my place, some I’ll come do at yours, and for anything that needs a hoist I’ve got access to a fully-equipped shop after hours.

At my place

Home garage

Heated, lit, with all my own tools. Easy parking, easy in and out. Most jobs happen here, book a time and drop it off.

At your place

I come to you

Won’t start? Battery dead? Need a quick diagnostic in your driveway? For a lot of jobs I’ll throw the tools in the truck and meet you there.

After hours

Full shop access

When a job needs a hoist, alignment rack, or specialty equipment, I’ve got after-hours access to a real shop. You still get the side-job rate.

How it works

Simple, no surprises.

Send me a message about what’s going on. I’ll figure out a time that works, take a proper look, and tell you what I find before touching anything. If it’s over my head, I’ll say so, I’m not here to upsell you.

01
Reach out
Text, call, or use the form. Tell me about the vehicle and the issue.
02
Take a look
I diagnose, then send you a quote, parts and labour, separated.
03
You decide
If you want me to go ahead, I do. If not, no pressure.
04
Done right
Final invoice with what was done, parts used, mileage.

Properly trained

Red Seal certified. Same papers as the dealership guys.

I went the long way, Red River College, apprenticeship, Red Seal exam, Manitoba Safety authorization, A/C licence. Working from home doesn’t mean cutting corners on training.
