I would not return to this sight. I was treated disrespectfully by the technician, I was charged $20.00 more for an oil change than at Irwin Quicklane where I am treated very well. Also they say 3000 miles for semi synthetic oil when everywhere else says 5000.

Grateful for this place. I was in and out in less than 30 minutes. My information was already in the system, they took the time to explain what they were doing to the vehicle and suggested a few things I could do. They also always send coupons.

There were not busy at the time we arrived, so we were swarmed by friendly folks WANTING to be busy. I like that. Anyway, efficient, knowledgeable and quick. We had the a/c serviced and they did a great job.

Had the oil changed my Ram TRX at Valvoline in Laconia. Way faster than the dealer. Friendly and professional staff. Reasonable pricing. Very nice (Borat voice)

I will never go back here again. Upon arriving and starting my oil change they discovered they never had my oil filter and suggested I drive to O Reilys to get the part I needed. Upon returning I was still charged the same amount without any discount considering I bought my own oil filter. That s incredibly poor practice and I feel it was a case of taking advantage of a woman. Ladies, DO NOT GO HERE!Service: Oil change

Being new to New Hampshire, I needed to find a new place to get fluids for my Chevy Tahoe.This Valvoline was suggested by another automobile service center.The Valvoline in Laconia was clean and professional looking. The staff was extremely helpful...offering different services, finding discounts, and finding mistakes made by earlier services in Idaho...like a slow oil leak, caused by no washer on the drain plug.I will be back!Best Regards,David S.

They were great. Kept me informed of what they were doing and anything they found. They were very nice and knowledgeable and finished quickly. I definately will use them again and refer people I know there if they want knowledge, pleasant and a quick no appointment place to go.

I'm not quite sure how to rate these guys... They were all super nice and greeted me right away. But, I never got out of my car while I was there and after leaving, I was on the highway going about 75 when my dash light lit up telling me that one of my doors was open. Well, I'm soooo glad that I was able to pull over immediately, because the guy never shut my hood and it was ready to fly up! I wouldn't have been impressed one bit if I didn't just happen to catch it and it actually came up! So thank you for changing my oil in all, but please triple check things if you have to!

My service was overall great. Logan was my servicer and he was very thoughtful and explained everything in depth. He actually made this visit better than the last. My only issue is the high prices, I always go in with a coupon otherwise I can save money and do my own oil change.

People are very nice. Waiting area and bathroom looked like it hadn't been cleaned in days. Kinda gross. Used to be a picnic table to sit at outside but no more. I think if you don't offer any other place to sit, then it should be clean.

Awesome customer service. Speedy, efficient delivery of services. Always willing to help with any questions and provide insight. Love that they check fluids and basic functions, such as headlights and directionals, as a part of any service visit. Highly recommended!

$83.00 for an oil change and that was with a $10 off coupon!. Unlike in the past they did not check the air filter, battery, lights etc. Not only that but they did not have the 10w30 weight that the mfr suggests is best for the car. The oil that they did have, 5w40 weight, is an alternative recommended for very cold weather. This is August. Convenience is a plus but probably not worth the extra cost. Its hard to see why these people are still in business. I won't be back.

The entire block lost power - Eric still offered to help me change my plates free of charge. I ll go back again and again. Very kind - excellent service.

Quick oil change service and friendly staff. However, I was told that my radiator was bone dry, there was an extra quart of fluid in my transmission and my power steering "needed work". My radiator was completely full, transmission fluid was actually a little low. And power steering was 100% perfect. Complete scam.

Once in it was quick and the workers did seem to care about the doing a good job. They do seem to care about the customer. For a 2004 Toyota Camry with 150k miles I was really surprised.Service: Oil changeService: Oil change

So not impressed! Took my son in the other day for an oil change. Thank God I was there or he would have paid $100 for an oil change!The service girl tried to PUSH the most expensive oil on him and then had the balls to tell him if he went with the cheaper oil it would VOID any warranties on his car!I was all over the NO! His car is a 2014 Honda in mint shape and he has ONLY the warranty he PAID for because he bought the car used! Then she tried to convince him to clean his cabin filter for 38$ more because it was dirty. I have seen dirty and honey his was not bad at all! He said no and then she goes on to tell him that s what s he is breathing in. I did not know that MDs worked there.The gentleman doing the work was just watching. He did not open his mouth once. How many people do you ripe off throwing those bogus sales pitches at?! NEVER again will he or I EVER go back! 48$ later and we were done. He is a 23 year old kid living on his own and working his A$$ off to make a living.Disgusting!

You passed a completley passable car so good job.However, you also put my registration stickers on over my old stickers on new plates without even asking, that is horrible.You also let my car idle for an hour for no reason....You pulled my ebrake up so far I'm surprised it didn't break.You over torqued my two wheels that you didn't need to remove...You left every light in my car on, including my ac on high....weird.You also have trouble driving stick.But other than that....thanks for an abnormally long slightly scamish inspection.

I dont know why but they have started to slack back. They use to check the engine's air filters. Today I was told it was probably alright. I just bought this car 2nd hand I needed to know that everything was done for safty of the car. For a 100.00 oil change you would expect to have the service you have always gotten for 50.00

Very rude, went in for an oil change and the guy told me "no sure how long it might take for us to get you in, might be a while" there were no cars being service in the garage at the time. In other words "just leave, we don't have enough people to do the job"....waste of time going to the Laconia one
