If I could give a zero to this hack of a shop I would. I hope I warn people off from going here and clearly the only people going here are ones who don't know anything about vehicles. I've had to work a few cars who were "built" by this shop and it's some of the worst work I've seen. From electrical either being just twisted together and taped, to solder and then taped with zero shrink tube. Open 12v wires just cut and still live on the frame. Boosted cars with fpr not hooked up to a vacuum source, hose clamps for IC couplers. I won't even get into his horrendous tuning ability. Using different spark plugs and not even the correct heat range, different spark plug wires, used relay that has seen water damage just dangling off the battery post.The worst one out of it all was the fuel line laying on the power steering belt, it was rubbing through!!! I can go on and on about this hack. Wires just electrical taped on the ecu laying on floorboard. I mean this dude either doesn't know what he is doing at all or just doing things wayyy above his actual knowledge and stealing money from these customers.Oh and the paint job, were you blind? Too lazy to even remove foam insulation and rubber caps that have now cracked and look awful. To think these customers spent 10s of thousands and this is the shotty work given back is a disgrace.Edited to show the top notch welding. Should be refunding money for this horrendous job.

I showed up with only 10 minutes left in his day. Coming from out of town and having an issue with my 78 Firebird, he and his wife so gracious to stop what they were doing and come listen to the issue. He had it solved in about 30 seconds. Wouldn't even allow me to pay him.This was so appreciative and shows to me what type of business and people they are. I will be coming back to have them work on my car as I have seen how professional, knowledgeable and friendly they are.You have a fan in Canada.

Iwould highly recommend Birdies to any one who is looking fora quality & honest repair shop.

I have never taken the time to write an online review, for anything. After the excellent customer service I received at Birdie's, I felt compelled to do so (unsolicited).The owner clearly takes great pride in his work/shop/reputation and the customer service here is top notch. I brought my 2013 Chevy Equinox in for a tune-up and oil change and it drives like a brand new vehicle.I really appreciate the care that they show to their customers and the fact that they won't try to sell you things that you don't need, like other shops. Keep up the great work!

Oustanding Service!!! I haven't been to a car shop in years because I never trusted the work or being bamboozled into random shoddy work for outrageous prices. Christine and Brett went above and beyond to help me feel comfortable answering all my questions. Brett spent the time and walked me through and showed me what my vehicle needed. They offered a free evaluation of the entire vehicle and let me know what needed to be done and what I could hold off on. The price for the amount of work that was done was reasonable and definitely not a easy job!. Not only will i have my car for many more years I have also found my mechanic and will refer everyone to them in the future.

Finally, an honest shop that does amazing work at a more than reasonable price. Master mechanic Brett Robbins went to great lengths to bring my 4.0L Cherokee after a blown head gasket at each of the 6 cylinders. He had already done outstanding work with a complete overhaul of the braking system so after this happened he worked with me by putting in a ton of extra work that I was not expecting. With repainting and detailing the whole engine bay, odd repairs like door repairs and undercoating. All small things that had great impacts on my truck that I love. Most mechanics just get the job done to push product but Brett realizes some of us have a passion for our vehicles which he is more than happy to go the extra mile for. I stand by his work completely because I know now my truck will live long past 200K miles. Will be returning for more horsepower soon.

Went to monro and they told me about $2500 for my car to pass inspection, scraped my sticker and sent me on my way. Came here the very next morning and they told me that absolutely nothing was wrong with my car and only paid the cost of inspection. Seemed very trustworthy which is rare in this profession

Honesty is a good word for the owners here. They have been repeatedly upfront on whether or not they would be the most cost effective or not for services, and have recommended where to go if they aren't.
