our buying experience with them was so lovely. carla is an absolute dear to work with. and i think the price we paid for our van was more then fair, especially when i told her a few things that needed fixing she went out of her way to get them fixed with her team there and they were FAST! we will be taking our truck here for mechanic work soon and i look forward to working with their shop! bonus: their waiting room was very comfortable and kid friendly with snacks and toys for my son to eat and to play. made our experience much easier for us. read more

Extensive welding, also metal cutting needed --but Barbee's replaced it by afternoon, charging $263, tax incl. --good welders & highly recommended read more

I was having some issues with drone noise on the aftermarket magnaflow exhaust for my 4runner and purchased a resonator from magnaflow to fix the issue. I reached out to Barbee and they quoted me a very fair price and said it will only take about an hour and I can bring it in whenever. I brought it in last Thursday and they got it done within a few hours (I think they could have done it quicker but I said I was leaving the vehicle anyways so feel free to do anytime as long as it was done by 4pm). Overall a good experience and definitely would trust them with other work. read more

I took me vehicle in to get repaired. There was knocking noise. The staff was friendly. James listened to what I told him an was able to diagnose correctly the problem. They provided a detailed quote. It only took one day to get me vehicle repaired. They texted me when I was ready and emailed me the receipt. Awesome service! I will definitely take me vehicle there again! read more

They completely the job as promised, the care of the customer is happy, and the do quality work. You just don't find companies that still care about the customer the way Barbee Auto does, it honestly caught me of guard by how helpful, honest, and responsive the were. I will 100% be doing all my muffler work here and will recommend Barbee Auto to everyone. read more

Tbh I never leave reviews, but when it's this bad all I'm trying to do is save the next guy. It's crazy to see that this place with a 5 star average. I guess if you don't care about your car it makes sense. Took my Corvette in to get a new over axle pipes installed. I asked if they work with stainless I was told yes, which they do but most people buy stainless to keep it from rusting... well at Barbee's you are guaranteed rust. My tips were crooked as can be, rusted to hell, and my shifter wouldn't even shift. I left it another day to get it fixed, when I showed up the tips were still crooked and my shifter still felt like crap. To be honest after the second time it should be fixed, you don't get another chance. I tried to see if they would help me get some new tips, all I wanted was a $200 refund from the $600 I was charged and they wouldn't do anything to help. Where I work... if you mess up you take responsibility for it and help the customer out, at Barbee's you get screwed. Check out those awesome welds, hopefully that helps you makes your decision. read more

My catalytic converter was stolen and this place was quick and available to replace it at a good price. A really friendly mechanic named Brandon helped me and fixed my car within the work day. It costed about $1800, but from my prior research, it could have been much more than that. I also took my car to get it checked out more recently and again, Brandon helped me out. I called and they had openings and availability that day! This was super uncommon, but it seems that this business works really efficiently. The friendly customer service and fair prices have me as a faithful customer read more

Saw this place had decent reviews and it was next to my office so decided to give it a shot. Probably won't ever go back again. I dropped my Jeep off promptly at 9am and told the guy either the catalytic converter or exhaust manifold was clogged, got a call 30 mins later that confirmed what I thought. I asked when the car would be ready, was told by end of day. Problem 1: Imagine my surprise when I called back at 3 only to find out it would not be ready until 2 the next day. I live near the airport (25+ miles away) so I quickly had to scramble to find a rental. Problem 2: Picked up the Jeep Saturday only to find black oil/grease all over the driver seat. Still trying to remove the stains. Problem 3: Swore I heard a rattle, looked today to find they misplaced the exhausted hanger and then put a bolt in between the skid plate and frame to keep it from touching. In summation, I spent $1000+ to get my car back a day late, pay for a rental car, stain the driver's seat with oil/grease, and then spend 45 mins under my Jeep fixing a lazy install. Otherwise the work was fine. read more

Outstanding company and great service. I got a quote over the web, and appointment next day. I arrived on time and they finished 15 minutes earlier than the quote. I waited in an air conditioned wait area with TV and Wi-Fi. Staff is very pleasant and professional. I can't recommend this company strong enough. read more

If you ever get that engine light on and you find out the error code, and it has anything to do with EVAP systems, cat converters or whatever. Take your car here. I had gone to 3 other places who were treating my older car, which was running great, like it needed an EVAP system overhaul with all new manifolds and every part you can think of. Great owner, James, who is responsive and helpful with any question. Great mechanics on site, the most fair price for awesome work and easy, simple experience. Dropped my car off, older year (2006), with an banged up and old cat converter. I had bought a new one and they allow you to bring in purchased parts, make sure it's the right process, and it was installed and in 4 hours, I had my car back with the engine light off and a pure fix. Will return for any other service issues I have! read more

Catalytic converter was stolen on my RV. Took it to Barbee and they stored the RV for me while they worked with insurance to get the estimate approved and the work completed.

I just bought a Mazda CX-5 a little over a month ago, and I've had a rattling noise in the back I thought since day one. I removed everything out of the spare tire compartment, spent several hours under the car trying to shake things- see if anything was loose with no success.... AT ALL! Finally I decided to take it back to the dealer. They kept it for over 24 hours just to tell me I needed to remove the tow hitch since they didn't install it. To their credit though they did say that the noise sounded like it was coming from the muffler hitting the bottom of the frame. I crawled under there again with some exhaust heat wrap- did a really shitty job wrapping between the tow hitch frame and muffler just to see... well they were right. It was hitting, and driving me crazy! So last night I cruised Yelp for a muffler shop and found Barbee close to my house, but it was too late. So today I stopped in, explained to them what was going on, WITHIN MINUTES, they had my car on a lift! 15 minutes later he comes back saying I'm all set! They were able to adjust the muffler hangers just slightly enough to have the muffler clear my tow hitch. Thank you Barbee Muffler for doing a badass job! read more

Ten Stars Super nice people. Put on a complicated carbon muffler and new exhaust manifold. Other garage couldnt do it and charged me 300 bucks just for wanking off. This place did it perfect for the same price the other place charged. I love these guys. All of them are really nice. New exhaust sounds great. read more

They did my tips for me a few months back. My HulkSmash growl has more bass but even when I get on it the sound is good! They did a great job and had the job done in no time. I definitely recommend this place because they are professional, reasonably priced, and will have you in and out! read more

Brought my car into James with a dead battery. Because of another issue with my car, they were unable to fully resolve the problem, however James and his crew were true professionals throughout the experience. Communication is key when dealing with one's automotive troubles, and James was very responsive via text and phone calls. Because they weren't able to address the underlying issue, I had to have my car towed to the dealership. I was refunded my money without any questions asked. I fully recommend Barbee Auto. read more

Went in to have my A/C system fixed. I told them my compressor was fine, there was a leak. They charged me for a new compressor and told me I needed new brakes. After $100 of dollars of repairs, the A/C is still bad. They vented the A/C freon into the atmosphere 5 times, just refilling it every time I brought it back under their "warranty". They obviously have no idea what to do, but wouldn't refund my money nor give a paper reciept. Crooks. Thieves. read more

My truck had an exhaust leak and was throwing a code, my normal mechanic told it would be 1300 to replace to the whole system (y pipes headers) and that the leak was not salvageable. I took it to barbees on a whim they fixed all leaks fabbed a piece of y pipe all for less than 200$! Truck is running great half a year later! Saved me a thousand bucks and all employees I interacted with were super friendly.! Honesty is hard to come by in the automotive industry so this was a great experience. read more

Stress free installation and great overall work done on my BMW M6. Couldn't be happier. Had my rear mufflers deleted with new 2.5" pipes installed with 3.5" tips. Welds look great. He left the stock mufflers in great shape just in case I want to go back to stock. read more

I took my 2013 G550 to install Brabus Exhaust pipes on existing sport ( k9 option ) dual outlet exhausts. These tips require professional custom installation, the original dual tips from the muffler needed to be removed and custom curved pipe needed to be welded and then tips welded on the top. It has to be very precise to ensure they come out from each side perfectly aligned and both sides to be perfectly the same. I'm very impressed with the work James did. What can I say, he did weld everything perfectly and it looks amazing. The price also was reasonable. The customer service was great. If you have an exotic car and want a perfect and clean job I would definitely recommend you to call James and you will not be disappointed. Thanks! read more
