Finally got to check out the Self Serve Garage after seeing their Vista Print commercial years ago. Super happy and satisfied with the high quality shop and the service provided by the owner George. I m a rank amateur and George really made it easy for me to get started and finish strong! Definitely going to go back as soon and as much as I possibly can! Thank You George for your Self Serve Garage!

have used self serve twice, they have great prices and the guys are really helpful, the only reason for 4 stars is the visits were nearly a year apart and their bearing press was still not fixed so again I had to go across the street and pay 50 to have my old bearing pulled and new one pushed, but the owner, George, was awesome and have me a price break since he thought it was fixed. great place to work on your vehicle if you're not familiar or don't have the workspace. DEFINITELY recommend

Living in an apartment makes it difficult to do simple jobs such as an oil change or brakes. This is an ingenious idea, as I love to work on my own car. They are knowledgeable and friendly and are willing to guide you through a step if you get stuck. This is the place I will be bringing my vehicles to when there is a job I can do. It is worth the money just to have access to a lift.

Great place to change your oil and work on your car. You have access to 3 lifts and tools if you need them. I don't have my own garage to work on my car so I use this shop for all my oil changes. Recently I rented a bay for 6 hours installing coil-overs on my car. Having an lift and air tools at your disposal saves so much time and it only cost 1/3 of what a shop would charge. I live in north seattle so it takes me a good 30 to 40 minutes to make the trip but it's worth it. I highly recommend Self Service Garage in kent.

This is the place you want to go!They have great tools and that orange stuff for after.The owner is super friendly and knows what he s doing. He helped me but also gave me space to do my own thing.

This is a great resource for the community. I've done my car oil change a few times usually scrambling under the car and working at awkward angles. For $10, the owner allowed me to use a bay for the car change and bringing the car up on the lifts was much easier to access under the car. The garage had prepared a cart for me with the tools for an oil change for my particular car and the owner was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this garage.

Just made my first visit to Self-Serve Garage. Simply put it exceeded my expectations by a mile. Nice facility, friendly and they even took my waste fluids which I was prepared to dispose of myself. Only did a cooling flush this time, but now that I know how it works, I'll be back for more complicated projects I can't do in my garage. Thanks, George, Anthony and Eric

I had a great money-saving, experience-building time with these guys. Rented a bay and a mechanic and 7 hours later I had changed the timing belt and water pump on my Acura-- a task I had attempted earlier with no luck. The mechanic let me do everything and stepped in once or twice to help with some tricky access that was banging my knuckles up. Excellent service for the whole community.

I have an old rx7 that is lowered to the point where I can not go to a regular car wash without getting stuck so a lift is a must. I have been coming back for 2 years for oil changes, exhaust work, suspension etc. and in that time I have encountered a tidy shop, friendly atmosphere, abundance of tools and affordable prices for short or long duration time requirements. 5+

G's Self Serve Garage is great! I needed to change my O2 sensors on my BMW. I didn't even need to bring any tools and I was lucky to have an enthusiast in the house to give me some tips. Thanks, G.N

I was excited to find this place! My apartment complex gave me a hard time for working on my car in the parking lot. They told me about this place and I couldn't wait to check it out. I ended up renting a stall and changing my oil. It was so cool working on my car there that I did a tune up on my car. I find myself thinking of other things I want to do. Very cool place!
