This Memorial Day, we remember the men and women who gave everything for the freedom we enjoy.
To say thank you, fellow veterans get 10% off labor on any job through June 15th. Bring by any boats, mowers, generators, or small motors that need fixing before summer.
Call or text 941.485.9310 and mention your service.

The new workbench finally made it to the shop. Took the tractor, a few ratchet straps, and some four-letter words to get it off the truck, but she's home.
More room means faster turnarounds, better organization, and (we hope) fewer lost 10mm sockets.
What's the one tool that always goes missing in your shop or garage? We'll go first. It's always the 10mm. Always.

Quick tip before you haul the boat out this weekend: if your motor sat all winter with old gas in it, don't just crank and hope. Old ethanol fuel gums up carbs faster than anything, and a fresh tank on top of stale fuel won't fix it. Drain it, run fresh, and if it still won't idle clean, bring it by.

Veteran owned, honest work, fair prices.
Call or text 941.485.9310 We'll get you up and running before you know it!
