Mobile mechanic by the hour, at your place

Most of what a shop does to a car can be done on gravel with the right tools and a flat spot. You pay for the hours and the parts and nothing else.

$35/hr per hour plus parts · Prices are the floor. We set a fair number with you.

Alternators, starters, belts, hoses, water pumps, thermostats, radiators, batteries, sensors, brakes, wheel bearings, suspension, exhaust patches, and most anything that does not need a lift or a press. We tell you up front what we cannot do in a driveway and what it will cost at a shop.

Parts come at what we paid. You can buy them yourself and we will fit them, with the honest note that a part that fails under warranty is then between you and the store. We can order through the parts fund for people who need a car running and cannot cover a part this week.

An hour is an hour. We do not round a forty-minute job to two. Diagnostic time is billed the same as wrench time, and if we cannot find it we say so.

When you call, have this

  • What it is doing, and when it started
  • Year, make, model, engine if you know it
  • A flat spot to park within reach of the car

Questions people ask

Is it really $35 an hour?
$35 an hour is the floor, plus parts at our cost. A job that needs a second mechanic or a specialty tool is quoted before we start, and you agree to the number first.
What can you not do in a driveway?
Engine and transmission swaps, head gaskets on most engines, anything needing an alignment rack, a press, or a lift. We will tell you which shop in Show Low to call and what to expect to pay.
Can I supply my own parts?
Yes. We fit customer parts at the hourly rate. If the part is wrong or fails, the return is yours to handle, which is the only reason we mention it.
Do you work on diesels, RVs, or ATVs?
Light-duty diesels yes. RV chassis work yes, house systems no. ATVs and side-by-sides case by case; ask.
