Marcus was persistent and was able to get our cars out of a difficult situation. I would highly recommend Hickman's Hook.

They got out to us in a very bad snowstorm and got our car started after the battery died. They did a great job, and were very helpful throughout. read more

Great, professional service. Very reasonable pricing. Would highly recommend to anyone in Boone/Blowing Rock area needing a tow.

Excellent service. Crazy deal, blew out two tires on a bad road. Onsite and delivered to a tire dealer and hotel on a Saturday night in under 2 hours. Amazing. Thanks! read more

We were on vacation and had just finished shopping in downtown Blowing Rock. We went to crank the truck, and were startled by a screeching noise. We thought it may be one of the belts in the engine. We googled auto repair and Hickman's came up first. Called and was told to be at Blowing Rock Citgo in 30 minutes. Got there and Mr. Hickman was right on time, took the truck right in and diagnosed the problem. Didn't have the parts, so called and had them delivered. They didn't fit, so called again. Didn't fit, so called a third place and luckily it worked!! While we waited the owner, Keith, was friendly and kind. Mr. Hickman kept us aware of everything that was going on. Got us fixed up, price was awesome and truck was purring!!! Would highly recommend!! So thankful to have found such helpful, honest people!! read more

We were recently in Blowing Rock for a quick winter "getaway" and experienced a sudden flat tire on one of the coldest days we've ever experienced. Having pulled into the Canyon's parking lot, we discovered that we didn't have the necessary tool to unlock our Honda Odyssey's tire to change it. We called AAA and discovered to our shock that "due to the extreme weather conditions, we will not be sending out assistance"! We found Hickman's on our cell phone, and with the 5 star rating, decided to take a chance, even though AAA also said that they would not reimburse us for contacting a service group that was not AAA-affiliated. Hickman's was there within less than 20 min, and discovered that he too could not unlock the tire. With phone assistance from our Virginia Honda service tech, Hickman's returned to his garage for the needed tool, was back to us within 10 min, removed the tire, repaired the tire, and put it back on for us. This in spite of snowy and icy conditions, and subzero temps and windchill factor!! We can't praise enough the professionalism and the concern shown to us ... as out-of-towners, and being an elderly couple, we appreciate the prompt service that Hickman's provided when the travel insurance group we've depended on for over 30 years failed to provide the needed service!! Blowing Rock as a community should be quite proud of Hickman's Hook as a business entity ... they prevented what might easily have become a very dangerous situation for us, under extreme conditions. And it was done in a prompt, friendly, and concerned manner ... we can't thank you enough!! read more
