I went to get an oil change, left without one, but still very pleased! That's because it was pointed out that I didn't need one. No one did any unnecessary services or tried to up-charge me, and that says a lot about the way this business is run. The staff is very friendly and professional. The manager, Amy, runs a great team! They won't over-sell you, and they care about what they are doing. I didn't need an oil change, so they let me know. However, they checked my windshield wipers and showed me they were in bad repair. I had them replaced, along with my cabin air filter. This is a quality location, and I trust them with my quick car care needs. Amy and her group of talented technicians deserve all the praise! They are not only knowledgable but they all present with a friendly countenance, are quick to answer a question, and work diligently. I was very intrigued with the obvious "flow" that the team had as they all worked on individual tasks, while simultaneously staying aware of how to help each other. The shop was immaculate, and every employee was neatly kept, despite the untidy tasks they regularly perform. It's a true testament to great leadership and teamwork. I am a big fan of Amy, Brandon and this whole Take 5 crew on Reynolda!

friendly service men, I was able to get an oil change quickly and they were able to help me with my hood latch (that was not cooperating) and I got a student discount. I gave them overall a four out of five just because of the price was a little out of my price range just for an oil change but I had a coupon so I wanted to try it out, I did get a email saying that if I did a survey I would get my next oil change for free so we will see about that.

After a referral from a new "girlfriend" of mine who's more familiar to what this town offers than I ever will be - being new to town from New York - I decided to let the mechanics at Take 5 change my oil in my SUV (Toyota 4-Runner). I didn't expect to drop almost $80 in order to do so, but I did choose their most-expensive high mileage option (due to an upcoming round-trip road trip to Washington, D.C.) AND they offer "free top offs" to their customer's car fluids in-between oil changes, which is definitely a plus because I was told to feel free to return to have my oil topped off once I am back next week from my 10-hour road trip. Since the manager (Steve) was quite friendly and familiar with my referral, he offered me a 20% discount as well as a $5 off coupon, making his overall service to me a nice one. I noticed as his co-workers performed their duties, they all often joke with one another as they work (Steve, included) which was cool to witness since any and everyone can appreciate a companionable, congenial environment. The mechanic pictured washing my windshield (who's name I think was Raekwon) even took the time to detail to me about how good my car's gas filters were and forewarned me on what to look out for when it's time to replace them. I've included a snapshot of their prices (as well as my receipt, to show the discounts given to me by Steve) to help future patrons decide whether or not this affable establishment is for them to try out.

I have been to Christian Brothers a few times, they are the only ones I let pre-inspect potential…read morecars that I want to buy. I had them do both of the used cars I bought and they lasted me forever with regular maintenance. In my experience everyone that works in this facility is honest, fair, they want to help people and they want them to be safe. This is the first and ONLY mechanic shop that I have been to as a woman where I wasn't treated like I was a dunce or less than. The employees here explain things in a way of informing you not persuading you or intimidating you with fear that if you don't complete the job something extraordinarily bad is going to happen. They give you realistic expectations on how much more you can drive until you need to really get it done which helps people that are on a budget. I think the prices are higher on average but the amount of service, attention, and thoroughness you get the price is very fair! I recommend this place to everyone I know especially women because I know how important it is to feel safe with mechanics and not like they are trying to get over on you! I've had my share of bad experiences but never with Christian Brothers! They truly exemplify the name!

I brought my car to Christian Brothers because they were a recommended shop by my warranty company…read more I was having issues with my rear suspension. They did a complete inspection of my vehicle and emailed me the report, including pictures of the things they found wrong. I had no idea that my brakes were close to being bad, as well. They submitted a claim to my warranty company, but it got denied. That's a story for the review I wrote on that company's page. Luckily, Christian Brothers uses Affirm to allow you to finance your balance due. They walked me through how to sign up for it, and once everything was set, got to work on my car. I am very glad that they provide shuttle service if you live in the area. I took my car in at 7AM, and the work was completed around 4:30PM. I didn't have to sit in their waiting area all that time. I picked up my car and was only gone for about 5 minutes when I received a call from them. There has been some missed communication, and the guys in the shop had not done the alignment I had paid for. They told me to bring my car by any time to get it done. I give them a lot of credit for that phone call. They could have easily pocketed my money without performing the service, but they were honest about it. I stopped by the next morning and they got me right in.

I've been to this shop a couple of times for state inspection and oil changes. The techs seem to be…read moreresponsible and professional and my cars were consistently finished timely. The techs have never tried to up-sell me services my cars do lot need. That's a big deal for shops like this where the fast oil change is often the loss leader to get you into the shop and sell you more lucrative services. For that reason I warily trust their techs and writers. I hope to find a regular shop for routine maintenance and repairs on my two late-model cars. I am, however, concerned whether they have qualified mechanics to perform that work. I know a little about this industry and they may have good mechanics or they may have only "technicians" given bare and inadequate training. Even if they have credentialed mechanics, do they pay well enough to keep the good ones or do they get the bottom of their tech-school classes? Again, I do not know whether this place has good, experienced mechanics and it might, but I would be careful and selective about agreeing to something other than the most basic maintenance tasks until they earn my trust.

So I've been at this location twice:…read more First time, my friend needed a tire pressure check. We were able to get in asap. We had the manager I believe and the manager double-checked to make sure there wasn't a leak or hole in our tire. We didn't have to pay for this service and it was great! Now the second time, another friend and I went for an oil change and a tire rotation. They gave my friend a quote, which was kinda high. I happened to notice the previous sticker in my friend's car and the car still had 2000 miles. So, I insisted on having them check the oil before charging for an oil change. They checked and said the oil change wasn't necessary. It makes me question though if they would've still charged and changed the oil despite it being okay. So, we wait in the lobby for the tire rotation. 20 minutes pass by. We see the car is docked with one guy in the bay. My friend went to ask how much time left. They had not yet started on the car and said that apparently we weren't told there was a car in front of us. We ended up being there for 45 minutes to an hour, which I realize doesn't seem long for a tire rotation wait but don't forget the namesake of the business "Express." We get the car back. When we sit in the car, we notice the wheel lock key was just placed in the cup holder. We had to go back and ask for the bag it came in bc they forgot to give it back. After driving for about 20 minutes, we see the tire pressure light come on. We call the company while on the road. I asked if they checked the tire pressure. They admitted that they forgot. I asked to speak to a manager bc after the long wait and the light coming on it was upsetting. The manager said that they asked the tech a few other questions and distracted the guy from completing our tire rotation correctly. I must admit I am confused about it bc the manager said they have a second person come and check. The manager said that the tires must be just 1-2 psi lower and to pull off the road somewhere and add air. The manager offered to look up places but that wouldn't have been helpful bc we were actively driving. The manager didn't offer any additional or free services but simply "ppl make mistakes." I agree which is why they get 3 stars but after the wait, poor communication, and additional time to find a new place to check the tire pressure it was a lot. Btw The tires were pumped to 5 psi higher on just the left side

Great and efficient service at this location. I went in on a Sunday and the manager was friendly…read moreand handled everyone in a timely manner although they were short staffed. I also came in with a Groupon for an oil change that was honored. They also have complimentary water bottles in the waiting area. I will continue going to this location for my automotive needs!

The service was really slow and did not match what we were told at all. We were originally told…read more30-45 minutes for two tires that were already in stock, but it ended up taking over 3 hours. We had already paid for everything two days prior. Stanley, the general manager, told us he would call us back the next day, but we never heard from him. When we came in today, Brian told us again it would be 30-45 minutes. The car wasn't even started for about an hour and a half, and then we were told there was an issue getting a part off that wasn't mentioned until much later. They ended up having to take the car across the street to finish the job. When we brought up how far off the time estimate was, we were told by Brian that "I don't get compensation for doing the job in this heat, so you can take that up with Stanley" and handed the keys and showed us the door. Overall, the communication and timing were way off, and the way it was handled felt unprofessional and frustrating. I would not be returning to this location due to the lack of respect, honesty about timing, and the rude attitude from employees when we asked simple questions about what was going on.
