Wow, my last post here was more than half a year ago... I guess I should keep up better with my online presence, but the work is so abundant here that I just forgetting about that. Have been busy non-stop for more than a year now, did not have a single day with no work booked in since about April 2017 (except the days I took off work to have a break here and there). Usually been booked up for a week or two ahead while not advertising at all since August last year. Super happy with the way this business is going! Never had a job better than this :-)

Apparently, voicemail software on my phone messed up my phone connection for few days. So few people even wondered if I am still in business. I assure you, I am in business BIG TIME. Hence was the reason for trying that voicemail software as I couldn't manage to answer all the phone calls that were coming in - while still doing the work I am supposed to be doing here, working on customer vehicles. So, sorry for this hiccup and any inconvenience caused if someone needed to cal...l me in the last few days. I have to say that the best way to contact me now is to send me a text message or email. The workflow in my shop is so heavy at times that I just can't find time to answer the phone calls, especially when I am in the middle of some work and can't be distracted. As much as I enjoy talking with customers sometimes I have to choose between having a nice chat and getting the job done - the latter being more important See more

Thank you everyone for keeping me so busy last month. As a matter of fact it was one of the busiest months in my whole life! I am sorry if some of you had to wait so long to get the jobs done, unfortunately this shop capacity is limited and despite all my all efforts (working the whole month non-stop without a single day off) my own capacity is not limitless either :-) There are certain thoughts for the future development that should allow to get more work done in the same time while keeping current price point and high quality standards. This is not something that is going to happen overnight (even if I wish!), but this a direction I intend to go.

I wanted to implement this idea for a long time. Service stickers that would tell maintenance history of the vehicle right away so there will be no need to guess what was done and when. Took me a while to get proper equipment for this task but finally it looks the way I want it! Meaning it looks undeniably cool!

Half a year in business! Sorry for such a small activity on my page recently - all the action is in the shop and I desperately have no time for updating my page. Doing my best to keep up with all the work here and keeping every customer as happy as I am myself! :-)

Get your air conditioner professionally recharged, checked and ready for hot summer for $99! Here is how A/C recharge is done properly: - Recover and measure remaining refrigerant from the system - Vacuum the system to remove any air and moisture ... - Perform vacuum leak test - Charge with precisely measured amount of refrigerant You can not do this with some aerosol bottle "refrigerant recharge kit"! Air or moisture in the system, refrigerant overcharge or undercharge will reduce system performance or even cause damage to A/C system components. -- AB automotive -- repair shop offers professional A/C recovery and recharge service for only $99 this summer. Air conditionig, climate control, heating and cooling systems repairs, maintenance and diagnostics also available at special promotional rate of $50/hour.

March have been busier then I expected but there is still room here for new customers :-)

Head gasket totally failed because of internal corrosion in the engine. Cylinder head sealing surface also badly corroded and connecting rod in one cylinder got bent because of hydro lock. Pretty much killed the car as cost of repair is more then car worth. All caused by bad coolant in the system. http://abautomotive.ca/2016/03/31/why-change-coolant/
