For years my family has used Martin s Service Station for our Gas, Towing and Service needs. Family owned business. Marty & Caroline always have a smile on their faces and they always say hello. On our special occasions we ask if we can have something posted on their marquee in front of their Station on Rt 6 in La Plata

Thought they were a bit rude when I first spoke to them. Didn't bother to look at my car until 4pm and told me the fix would be 1000. Wouldn't event tie up the part up, so I could take it somewhere that could fix it for less. The next place looked at it right when I got there and are only charging 400 to do way more work. I won't be back. The second time calling they were way more rude.

Great place to stop in...for gas for snacks and drinks to shopping for someone you dont know what to get them...you could definitely fine something...and when I pulled up today there were bananas tangerines and mint in a basket next to the NEW gas pumps

Hard to write a review on a place that treats you like family. Hell, I call in they know who I am they call me when work is done. It s a family run business that s been in the town for years and rightfully so. They take care of their customers.

Very professional and reasonable price for car state inspection. I do recommend other people interested for car inspection

My daughter took her car to Southern Maryland Tires to get her brakes checked. They told her $1100 for brakes and to turn her rotors. Decided to wait and make an appointment at Martins in La Plata. Cost was $745 for new brakes and new rotors. It was well worth the wait. I would much rather go to a family owed business who are honest and trustworthy than a chain just looking to take advantage of you. Highly recommend Martins in La Plata for any repair work. They also have a nice little gift shop.Service: Brakes

I love this place! The pumps have a little tv, they often have free gifts at the pump, they are always open and I feel very safe there. They have a great repair shop and a lovely gift shop. Go there now!

We took our cars there for inspections, gas, an oil change, and a new set of tires. This was our first time using them, but going forward I think we'll use them for everything else we need with our vehicles.The front shop has a very hometown feel, and the service is extremely friendly and welcome. From the first time we called them to the time we picked up my car, they made us feel very comfortable putting our trust in their service. Anytime there was an update to the car they called us right away to let us know, and anytime we called them, we got through immediately.They did a great job, and even though they don't have the tires on-site, they were able to order them, put them on, and have me out the door, in under 24 hours.Services: Tires, Oil change

Caroline Martin is who I m assuming is the owner couldn t be any more rude if she wanted to be. They quoted us 600 for an alternator replacement. The book hours is .7 hours and the new part was only 240. They thought we didn t know what we were talking about so when I told the guy we weren t having them do the work, he said he would just put the key under the floor mat. Apparently, the lady stated above wanted to charge us something and charged us 25 for absolutely nothing. Save yourself time, energy, and money so you don t have to be ripped off by this place. Waste of time for sure.Service: Auto engine diagnostic

Went there without an appointment to get my car state inspected. Even though there were 4 people that were ahead of me that made appointments they was still able to get me taken care of and I was able to get my business taken care of at the MVA that same day. Always have had positive experiences whenever I deal with them. Plus their state inspections are the lowest or 1 of the lowest around.

Wow. An actual honest auto repair shop! The owners are extremely nice and friendly. Their prices are very reasonable. I have been going to them for about 3 years after my other mechanic closed. There's only one time that they refer to me the dealer because they don't have the proprietary computer system to do the work. They could have just fix it and charge me, but they were honest enough to say that in order to get the right thing fixed, the computer system is needed to diagnose the problem. That's honesty right there.

Martin's recently repaired the air conditioning in my truck and installed a new alternator into my Suv. I have had major AC problems with my truck but but Frank and Mr. Martin got me right. Both jobs were performed quickly and and They were up front about pricing . I would recommend anyone go to Martin's service station for their auto needs they are great people all around

They didn't put my front brakes and rotors on properly, so 6 months later I'm here again to have them fix the problem. My appointment was at 9 am. Took them forever to even talk to me, said the mechanic wouldn't even be in til 9, and when he finally showed up, he never asked me what was wrong or anything. Just took my car. Then after, asked what was wrong. I told him, and he said that it wouldn't be able to be serviced because they don't have the parts. I love 45 minutes away from this place to have to come here 3 times, first time to tell them what was going on (but apparently they didn't have time to talk to me or look at the car then), then again to have them check my brakes (which they never did), and I'll have to come in a 3rd time to get this fixed. I'm beyond angry. Do NOT come here for car service.

My wife took our vehicle to get inspected at 11a.m 1:30p.m. no phone calls. Showed up to the shop and they just starting the inspection, knowing I needed the vehicle back by 1:30pm. Lost my service.

You get what you pay for. They are very honest and fair but not cheap. Marty and his crew do excellent work. It's nice to go to a place with 100% confidence that they won't suggest any work that isn't necessary.
