Frequently asked questions
If your question isn't here, call or text us and ask. We'd rather answer it up front than have you guess.
How does a mobile mechanic actually work?
You tell us what the car is doing and where it's parked. We come to it with the tools, the diagnostic equipment and the parts, and do the work in your driveway, your office parking lot or wherever it's sitting. You don't drop anything off and you don't wait in a lobby.
What areas do you cover?
Tampa, New Tampa, Temple Terrace, Brandon, Riverview, Wesley Chapel, Lutz and Land O' Lakes. There's no travel fee anywhere in that area.
Is there a call-out or travel fee?
No. What we quote is what you pay — coming to you is included, not an add-on.
How much is the diagnostic?
$95, currently reduced from $125. If you have us do the repair, the full $95 comes off the final bill.
Are your prices the total, or just labor?
The prices listed are labor only. Parts are quoted separately for your specific vehicle before any work starts, so you always have the full number before we begin.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. Parts purchased through us are covered by warranty, and some carry a lifetime warranty. If you supply your own parts we'll fit them, but the warranty is between you and your supplier.
What kind of vehicles do you work on?
Any make and model. Domestic, Japanese, Korean and European, from daily drivers to higher-end vehicles.
Is there anything you don't do?
We don't do bodywork or paint. We also don't take on deep electrical work like chasing wiring harness faults. Component replacement including alternators, starters and batteries is no problem.
Do you do emergency and roadside work?
Yes, within our hours of 9am to 9pm, seven days a week. The one condition is that the location has to be safe to work in — a parking lot or a driveway is fine, a narrow shoulder in live traffic is not.
How do I pay?
Card, cash or Zelle. You'll have the full price before any work begins.
Do you have a shop, or is it all mobile?
Both. Almost everything we do happens at your car — brakes, batteries, alternators, starters and diagnostics don't need a lift. For the bigger jobs that do, we have a shop, and the same people do the work. We don't list the address because jobs don't start there; if yours needs to come in, we'll give you the location and arrange getting it there, or you can bring it to us.
What kind of job has to go to the shop?
Anything that needs 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.
Can you work in an apartment or office parking lot?
Yes, and a lot of our work happens exactly there. All we need is a level parking space with room to work around the car.
Do I need to be there while you work?
Not for the whole job. Plenty of customers hand over the keys and go back to work or inside. We'll call you before doing anything that changes the price.
Need it sorted today?
Call or text and tell us what the car is doing. We're on the road from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week, and there's no travel fee anywhere we go.
