When to Schedule?
Not sure which car inspection fits? Pick whichever description sounds most like yours.
“I just want to know where my vehicle stands.”
Book a visit. Our technicians sort every finding into two piles: fix it now, or it can wait.
“I’m heading out on a long drive, or I’m moving.”
Give us a few days’ notice so recommended repairs are finished before departure.
“Something sounds, feels or smells different and I can’t place it.”
Call us, describe the noise or smell, and the technician checks that area first.

What causes this →Sometimes a buyer’s inspection and a seller’s inspection uncover completely different issues.
