About Baldwins Garage is a full service repair shop. Foreign and domestic vehicles.
Baldwin's Garage (Albany area) is the little-country-mechanic counterpoint to high-priced money-grabbers - next-morning brake-and-rotor rescues for failed DIY jobs, patient explanations, and actual care. Even the five-dollars-more-per-hour review defends them.
One timing-chain quote of $1,800 became a $5,000 charge on a woman's car - the serious counterweight. Get big-job quotes in writing. New York repair and inspection. Rated 4.5 across 37 reviews.
Customer Reviews
I’ll take a “ little country mechanic” over high priced , money grabbers any day. I feel they took the time to work and explain things regarding my car to take the best course of action. Happy to have a found them.
They are awesome and patient and very nice I would work on my own car but my back is destroyed. From working on cars auto body painting .I would rather go to a small family shop then any other . Thanks again have a good day
After trying to do my own pads and rotors and failing, I called Baldwins the next morning and asked for the earliest time I could get my car in. They said if I was to get my car to them now, they should have it done by the end of the day. Not only did they do it before the end of the day, they did it in less than 3 hours! They exceeded my expectations dramatically. By time AND quality. Overall, I recommend Baldwins Garage over everyone else because of their timely and quality repairs. I look forward to using their services soon!
First off, if anyone reads Bob's review so you know their hourly labor might be like $5 an hour more than Ryan's garage. They really actually care about you as a person. Also, both Ryan's Garage and Baldwin's will refer you to each other if they are "booked up" and you need service sooner than they can get you in. Baldwin's has excellent customer service, and one of the only shops I have ever come across that doesn't mind if you bring your own parts. They understand not everyone has the money for expensive repairs. Only thing is sometimes it takes days to get your car repairs finished. Only because they are so busy and popular.
I can’t believe these guys a quote of 1800 for a timing chain and at the end was 5000 dollar charge. A woman was taken advantage of at the max. Her check engine light came back on a week after getting the car back. The car sat in the parking lot all of last winter on a flat in the grass. After getting the car back 9 months later the exhaust is loud and fumes flood the car. The car is once again on its last leg. A used motor would cost 3000. I don’t recommend this garage to anyone…especially females.
