Has the best experience and very knowledgeable. Great customer service. The most bluntly honest mechanic but in a good way. Works very quickly and has very fair pricing. Also being a female I appreciate the fact he not only tells me whats wrong but explains it to me instead of just trying to sugarcoat it and over sell me on things I may not need. He is always straight to the point. Cannot recommend enough!Services: Air & cabin filter replacement, Steering & suspension repair, Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Brakes, Air conditioning, Brake service & repair, Battery, Oil change

Jake provided excellent service at a reasonable price. This was my first experience with a mobile mechanic and I would not hesitate calling Jake again next time something is needed. I had wheel bearing blowout on a jet ski trailer and it would have been costly to bring into a shop, not to mention the time it would have taken to get the job done. Jake responded to an email within a short amount of time and within a few hours I had a solution which included replacement of leaf springs and rebuilt hub. He even cleaned up the trailer to make it look better. Honesty, dependable, great communication, fair price were part of the service.

Jake came out to us to work on a very difficult vehicle. He was prompt professional nice and hard working! The problem was difficult to diagnose. But he worked on it tenaciously, found the problem, fixed it. He was very honest and did not try to upsell. Price was extremely reasonable and will become go to the mechanic! Thank you so much!

First of all, Jake fixed my car in my apartment complex parking lot, saving me money from towing fees, etc , so that already saves me tons of money and time. The problem was a lot more difficult than originally expected, but that did not stop him! He had my car up and running within three days of contacting him! Very reliable, great prices, and friendly service. I will be using his services from here on out!

Jake came right over and fixed the carburetor on my whole home generator! He was very friendly, answered my calls and was flexible with my work schedule. Would definitely recommend him for anyone looking for a repairman for small engines and stuff where you may need someone to come to you!

After charging reasonably at first..I dumped $400 on fixes for my vehicle supposedly clearing codes saying they were fixed and none were actually resolved at all..then his continued charging me while then saying I need a new battery I by a $200 o'Reilly quslity battery as he recommends and battery dies after his servicing and won't retain charge which was never the problem initially?He came twice to figure out charging 100 twice for never fixing the problem and refused to take responsibility to fix it after he made me pay again saying he tried when it was still was not fixed because he spent time not fixing it I owed him?? He caused this new Battery to continously die overnight since he said he was unplugging every fuse to find a different problem.I would recommend a shop.My other vehicle he charged for a solenoid and battery and still has same problem it was my st as rter according to another mechanic. I think if you have a lot of time and $ to waste...

The challenge with direct labor solicitors is the inability to fully manage the logistical challenges of sourcing the labor. While the service to my vehicle was quick and above what I was expecting I only really had a hard time getting a hold of Jake I only needed a diagnostic which showed the gas had been stolen from my car/leaked and I paid 100 (which is about 100 less than what I would have gotten charged. I also did get head lights inserted but that probably took Jake 12 minutes for both sides so he s pretty quick. Maybe if some of you folks leave Jake alone he can get to everyone else lol! But I understand good reliable service is hard to find

Jake came out the day after I contacted him. Showed up when he said he would, identified my issue within 10 minutes. I had a bad terminal on my battery cables, which he offered to fix or gave me direction to do it myself.After talking with him I could tell he knew what he was doing and I would and will be using him again when the need arises.
