If I could give six stars I would, but they limit it to five. Went to get the brakes done on my Jeep Wrangler. Spoke with Chris on the phone the day before. He told me to come in. I showed up at the point of time. He was ready to take the car in. Super honest super thorough kept the schedule and the budget. I cannot recommend this place more. I will never go to a dealer to get service work done again. Good businessman, great craftsmanship I’m very happy and I will be back.

I’ve been 20 yrs with this shop from when they were on 4th and now on 24th. Grateful for the recc from my neighbor. They keep my family safe, are flexible with timing and don’t push up costs. Called them from the dealers anxious about a purchase and they walked us through it to make the right decision for a car that would require far less time in their shop.

Chris is the real deal. Honest, hard working, and an all round gentleman. He’s been my mechanic for a few years now and I couldn’t recommend him enough - I’m moving out of state and will honestly be sad to say bye. They don’t make them like him anymore. Thanks Chris!

After failing my inspection at the Toyota dealership and declining their outrageously expensive repair quote, I started looking for a trustworthy alternative. I contacted several auto repair shops and ultimately chose L&B because Chris was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable from the first phone call. I brought my car in on Friday morning, and within a few hours Chris called with his recommendations and a fair, transparent estimate. By later that afternoon, my car was ready. The service was fast, professional, and reasonably priced. It’s refreshing to find an honest auto repair shop you can trust. I’m thrilled to have found L&B and know I’ll be a loyal customer going forward. Chris is the best!

After my first experience I knew that I will only be bringing my car to this shop from here on. The owner is a great guy, stands by his work, and a pleasure to deal with. Prices are reasonable and the work is great. Its refreshing to know that I now have a mechanic i can trust. I highly recommend this shop!!

I had a fantastic experience with L & B Auto Repair. I needed a new tail light, and Chris made the entire process seamless and easy. He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and straightforward - qualities that are hard to find these days. I truly trust Chris because he was so honest and transparent throughout the interaction. Highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy service.

Chris and the entire staff at L&B Auto are wonderful. I couldn't' recommend this place more highly. They are fair in price, they are timely and communicative, they do exceptional work, and explain everything without making you feel stupid for not understanding all the mechanics. Chris is a rare gem, not only in the world of mechanics, but in the world in general. A solid person and trustworthy company-- you would be remiss if you worked with anyone else.

Chris and team are excellent. I’ve been here twice so far and had a great experience. The prices, customer service, communication, etc are better than anywhere I’ve taken my car before. Happy to have found this spot nearby.

Chris & his Staff are kind courteous & honest mechanics! They repair or recommend solutions to common problems with ease. I lost contact with them when they moved to new location but was a customer for decades. Now the son has carried on the tradition of reliable repairs!
