Same great crew at a new bigger location. Excellent work at a good price. Hey, they even got me in early this last time. This is the place to go to when you need work done on your vehicle. Nice to be able to have mechanics that you can rely on when your vehicle is having a bad day. Thanks again to Johnny and Carl, as well as Shaynne for co-ordinating it all.

Dan Markin Oct 10, 2023

We've been bringing our vehicles to Babe's for the past 2 years and can highly recommend. Last year, they installed new rotors and pads. After some recent warping of the rotors, they were able to obtain a warrantee replacement and install, all free of charge. Super happy with their service!

Matt MacDonald Aug 8, 2023

I had my 1976 Laguna in for a carb rebuild, brakes and tire install for the drive back to Vancouver. The car drove like a beast without any problems. Great job to the mechanics and Montana and Shaynne for making it happen!

James Ingram Aug 8, 2023

I ended up stranded in Nelson with unexpected car trouble. Called every local shop in town only to be told "Were fully booked" or "sorry we can't work on your camperized vehicle" Then I called Babe's, and had my faith in humanity restored. "We're fully booked, but if you can get to the shop early, we can do our best to look at it" was the most human response I could've received and I couldn't have been more grateful. They had me back on the road with confidence in under 3 hours. They we're kind and accommodating and honestly they saved my road trip. Babes isn't just a mechanic shop, it's a place where car guys help people with car problems. Thanks again Shane!

Excellent trustworthy service

Darren Pickering Dec 12, 2022

Got a vehicle inspection done, Babe's was professional and gave a very thorough report on everything they looked at. Wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Brett Martini Aug 8, 2022

I cannot recommend Babes enough! I have a small work fleet of older 4x4s that need lots of love to keep em running. I burn out mechanics as these poor vehicles get bush whacked constantly and often need complicated and extensive repairs.... Babe's is always up to the task. They have a friendly, professional and uber competent team that keeps me up and running. Love Babe's. Seriously cannot praise enough!

Rosie Wijenberg Jul 7, 2022

Very good shop got it done fast and for less than quoted

Rye Coombs Mar 3, 2022

Babe's went above and beyond for me locating a mysterious electrical issue in my car and I can't say enough about the great service. I would recommend them to anyone.

Lori Simon Jan 1, 2022

Babe's was great, they told me everything that was wrong with my truck and made a successful plan of attack, thanks again guys I highly recommend them.

Jesse Davis Jul 7, 2020

This auto shop was recommended to me, and I'm so glad I went to them. They were honest and fast, they got my lil motor casa in right away, no delaying. I'll recommend them to anyone who needs work done. Thanx Babe's Automotive. dolleen and bonita

Great service, very friendly! Also great inspection with a very clear report. Honest people not trying to rip your wallet off. Building trust is the best way to get more customers, this is for sure. I highly recommend it :) Thank you babe's!

Lorena Bouchard Mugica Mar 3, 2021

Always excellent and friendly service.

Paddy Duddy Feb 2, 2021

We are so happy to have found Babe's as our new local mechanic. They recently did a brake job on our older model CRV and we were impressed with how thorough they were from start to finish. The electronic condition report that they sent after seeing our car explained things carefully and included recommended (but not essential) service that we might want to consider in the future. (We felt like it was a 'heads-up' on potential trouble down the road and so appreciated this). They also responded to our worries about a strange noise that we noticed and fine-tuned our brakes a month after the original job for free. Thanks Babe's!

Michelle Rinker Jan 1, 2021

Great people to deal with. They did 2 out of province inspections for me and I was impressed with their service. I will definitely use them for my work. They really earned my business.

D C Dec 12, 2020

Babe's is great. They always get me in when I really need it and always do their best to let me know what "needs" to be done and what can wait. Being able to trust a mechanic shop is a big deal for me.

Gerrit van Bruggen Oct 10, 2020

They got our Subaru in and out super fast! Super responsive on their phones and a great atmosphere! I had a great experience getting my coolant leak fixed.
