I brought my boat in for engine repair. The outboard engine was a pain in the touche to raise and…read morelower; I figured it had to be simpler. I was NOT given an estimate. I just wanted the motor easier to raise and lower. When I went to collect my boat a few days later, I was told it now had an electrical raising/lowering mechanism (I didn't need anything that fancy and it was not discussed with me). The point is the bill came to over $1200 on a boat not worth more than $6000. I was not excited with that bill. Yes, the oil and plugs had been changed but really? In addition, they had gotten beneath the deck to screw in bolts and unsettled everything - they couldn't even put back the cushions that were under there. It really wasn't appreciated that I had to clean up after them.

I mainly appreciate that as he explain how something works or what it does there's not a hint of condescension or that I'm wasting his time. Most recently I had to take my 84 Bayliner Capri in because the motor had quit. He suspected it was something with timing and he was right. He kept the cost of the repair to what he estimated, let me know about some other things to do or keep ab eye on, and also suggested I take it back out in the water before I start trying different props. That speaks to integrity as he could very easily sold a prop to a newbie like me right then and there!

But, he took a few parts to order that the boat required to run again. Then he ghosted us. Now we don't know the parts he took and our boat doesn't run. We will be more thorough next time when working with a mobile boat mechanic. Learned our lesson.

This time I also had him detail my two cars too and wow they look like new inside and out. So convenient to have them come to my home too!

They not only find the problem, they look at the whole performance of the engine with the electronic test equipment so your not suprised about another issue. "who does that anymore?" If you think its too far to drive, think again. It's well worth the drive for the peace of mind the job was done right. They are a small business with a lot of heart and large results. I found them Fair, Informative, helpful and go the extra mile to get me back on the water. I am so happy I was referred to them. I really appreciate they way they do business, wish others businesses would do the same.
