One of the outstanding features we offer our clients is all the work we do on your vehicle is calculated by the hour not by what it calls on the book. So if book job pays 2.5 hours, and we do it in 1.5 hours then you would be charged 1.5 hours, not like some shops who charge by the book, and you would be paying 2.5 hours for work that was done in 1.5 hours.
