Auto repair that comes to you in Loomis

Loomis properties tend to have room to work, and the foothill roads around Taylor Rd, Horseshoe Bar Rd and King Rd put real wear on suspension, tires and brakes. Jake brings the shop to you, whether your vehicle is in the driveway, by the barn or at work.

Many Loomis households run pickups and tow trailers. Jake services light duty trucks and also inspects trailer brakes, bearings and lights, so a trailer that has been sitting does not surprise you on the road.

Common calls from Loomis

Suspension and steering on rural roads

Ball joints, tie rods, shocks and struts wear faster on rough roads. Jake finds the worn part and fixes it where the vehicle sits.

Trailer brakes and bearings

Brake inspection, bearing repack, lighting and 12 volt wiring for utility and light duty trailers.

Truck and SUV brakes

Heavier vehicles chew through pads and rotors. Replaced on site with parts you can see before they go on.

Not sure your repair is on the list? Text Jake. If a job is outside what a mobile mechanic can do, he will say so and point you to someone who can.

How pricing works in Loomis

Flat $50 mobile fee

Covers travel to Loomis and the convenience of having the repair done where your vehicle is. Charged once per visit, so multiple vehicles or jobs at the same location share one fee.

Labor and parts, listed separately

The repair is billed at Jake’s hourly rate plus parts, kept separate from the mobile fee so you can see exactly what you are paying for.

Diagnostics

Charged separately when testing is needed. You will know the cost before any diagnostic work begins.

Free quotes, no surprises

Send the year, make, model, and what is going on, and Jake will quote the job before anything is booked. If something else comes up during the repair, he calls you first.
