Fantastic experience. We're on a cross country road trip in a winnebago RV and started hearing the brakes grind. I called around to numerous places and they were able to get us in right away and within 2 hours we were on our way. My husband works on cars and watched the whole time and he was impressed! The charge was VERY reasonable. Super nice guys. I would not hesitate to come here again or refer a friend. Thank you so much!Service: Brakes

We're traveling from Tennessee to Alabama and blew a tire on I22 (yikes). Luckily we had a donut to put on to make it into Hamilton to Walmart but they had a 2-3 hour wait and we need to get back home to Tennessee once we're done in Tuscaloosa. So we found Wathas on Google and they hooked us up quickly and for a good price too! I'm not from around Hamilton but these guys are life savers! Check them out!

Car broke down on side of highway and I needed it towed all the way back to the dealership in birmingham. Shannon was great, he loaded up my car fast and was very professional. I was worried that since my ride still hadn t gotten to me yet that i would have to wait on the side of the road with my belongings and dog. However, he drove me and my dog to a nearby gas station to wait in the truck for my ride to arrive and when they did he even helped me unload my car. Great people, Great experience. Highly recommend.

We were stranded on the side of the highway with a blown out tire and two kids states away from home. Johnny didn t take long to come pick us up and took us to the shop where he and the other associate put on two new tires for me. Johnny even took the time to show me what happened, explain why, and point out everything I will need to get checked out it when I get home. They were all so kind and courteous and made a bad situation better.

We were on the church bus, having a good ol time and then boom. Blowout. Right rear outside dual. It s raining we re hundreds of miles from home. We re frantically calling places trying to find a tire. Did I mention its 9 o clock pm on new years. Finally a glimpse of hope. Someone tells us to call watha tire. So we do. Thank goodness they answered. Told us someone would meet us there if we could limp it in. So thats what we did. A nice man met us there and immediately got to work. It was pouring down rain and it was like he didn t notice had us in and out in 30 minutes. Great people doing great work at a great speed. 5 stars would recommend if your ever in need.Service: Tires

A little over a month ago they were called to tow my car, waited on the side of the road for two hours. Tow truck driver called me to say he was going home to eat dinner and would tow me after. Luckily I was able to get the car going and managed to get home oneAfter the above experience, I should have known better but I hired them to move 2 buildings to my property, In a small town there are few options, I was quoted $400 each to move the buildings, after bringing out the first one, Watha informed us that he would not move the 2nd one for the quoted price, he wanted $1,000 to move it. He is very rude and unprofessional, apparently he feels he can rip off his customers because he is the only game in town, I ll happily pay someone else more to move it. A deal is a deal and I refuse to pay this crook a penny more than agreed upon. Take my advice DO NOT hire them.

We were 3 miles from the shop and needed a rear tire. I was told the tire would be about $200 but when they brought it it was $239 + tax plus $35 to put it on and by the time he added tax a tire I could have bought for $169 cost $300. It hurt my pocket book! The man that changed it was great but I didn t expect to pay $300

Nice and decent service but holy hell the price for labor is through the roof. 150 bucks in labor just to replace spark plug wires. That is absurd. I mean honestly how long did it take you to diagnose that problem and then replace the wires? Seems like you're just taking advantage of people from out of town.

Holy $&@#...bring your lube, folks! As someone who's mechanically savvy and used to work at an auto parts shop I can say these people will take you for all you're worth. I was passing through town and needed work done short notice. They did a good job, but paid absurd markup and really got bent over for labor that took less than 1 hour. Such a simple job, sure did pay for it though.

I was very happy with the service received on the night my daughter had her car accident. At 3 o'clock in the morning they responded very quickly and everybody involved were very nice and made a horrible situation a lot easier. I would highly recommend this towing company. Thank you

My car broke on a Sunday and I was referred to Watha's. I am grateful for their services. Their prices were reasonable and they went out of their way to get me back to Arkansas that night. Good people!

My mother was traveling on her way to Atlanta, she ran out of gas, and was stranded on the highway in the dark. She made 2 attempts to her roadside assistance, and was placed on hold for long periods of time. She sent me a text and asked that I find her some help. I found Watha's Towing using google. The man answered the phone on the 2nd ring, got some information from me. and Within 20 minutes he delivered fuel to my mother and she was on her way. The service was fast, friendly and reasonably priced. Thank you Watha's Towing for making an unpleasant experience as painless as possible.

On our way to Florida for family vacation, we broke down on the Highway 78 a few miles from Hamilton, AL around 5:00 pm on a Friday. I looked up Watha's Towing on my phone and Mr. Watha himself showed up within minutes. He towed us to a local garage and within 2 hours from our initial breakdown, we were back on the road! I am so appreciative of this man and his towing service. He is very kind and professional. I hope you don't need a tow truck in Hamilton, AL but if you do, this is guy.

The guy who put the car on the jack had dropped the car off the jack and broke a piece off the car. Tried to play it off as nothing, but it ended up being the covering of our brake lines. I don't care if it wasn't anything important, that was dangerous and reckless. If you break something, don't you dare not say anything.Services: Tires, BrakesServices: Tires, Brakes
