They always do a great job! We bring both of our vehicles there for service or repairs. The service manager Richard, is the best! We've been customers with them for over 10 years, and wouldn't trust our vehicles with anyone else but Beach Automotive. Our only complaint is that they need a bigger building because they have such a huge customer base. They will not do you wrong. Highly recommended!

I have used Beach Automotive for years now. They are friendly, have reasonable prices and very fast! I’ve used them for brakes, oil changes, inspections, etc. Always great service. Case in point: my car inspection was due. I dropped it off around 8 and was called at 9:48 saying my car was ready! Highly recommended!

I love this place. They are honest and Jodie at the front desk is a gem. I have been going here for years. Recently there is a lady I've seen on Fridays with glasses who is kind of rude at the front desk but their amazing work will keep me as a customer. I hope she adjusts her attitude for her own sake.

What a wonderful place! My experiences at Beach Auto on Birdneck Road have been excellent! I highly recommend them for state inspections, tune-ups, problems, oil changes, and more. They are polite, easy to work with, and appreciate your business!

Been going to the shop for decades, since they were located on Laskin Road and always 110% satisfied. Trustworthy people, long-term Mechanics for employees and fast friendly service. Always happy to listen to your needs and accommodate you as best as possible. Also no problem getting in quickly. Five stars for sure

If I could give this business more stars, I would. As a female customer who is new to the area, I was treated with the utmost respect and honesty which is something I look for in a business. I had a lot of repairs that I needed and came in with a list about a mile long quoted from the dealership and Beach Auto was able to fix everything that needed to be repaired at a very reasonable price. They were very upfront and honest and thoroughly explained what was a necessary repair and what wasn't. As a female customer, I truly appreciated that. I also can't say enough kind things about the ladies who greet you and answer the phones. An all-around great experience and I highly recommend this business.

The staff was very friendly and informative. They were able to fix my car quickly and at an affordable price. They worked with my schedule too. I appreciated how they did not try to add on or sell me unnecessary services. Will definitely become a returning customer.

I’ve had good experiences with this shop over the years. Work is always pricey, but that’s as to be expected this day in age. However, after my last visit I will be using other shops in the future. I can no longer reccoment this shop because of an error and lack of punctuality. It’s an honest mistake but at my cost and piece of mind. I simply asked for a synthetic BLEND when dropping off my vehicle. Only to pick up my vehicle the next day to learn they had used a FULL synthetic, which costs more and is simply incorrect from what I ask. Maybe it necessary for the shop to implement a pre contract for the work to be done, since obviously verb communication is lacking.

Jackie and Connie at the front desk were so nice & helpful. Matt was so professional and explained my problem and had my car back to me in 4 hours. He saved me money which made my day. I highly recommend Beach Auto .

I would highly recommend this shop to anyone who requires inexpensive automobile repairs. I dropped off my car for state inspection before they open at 7a and the lady at the front desk states I will be contacted once it's done and surely my vehicle was completed at 2p. Ensure to be waiting in line before they open at 7a to drop off your vehicle since it's first come first serve.

I had work done on 8/2/24. I paid $943 for my AC to be fixed. AC works great. However, the mechanic unplugged my front right headlight and turn signal. I was unaware and I was pulled over for my headlight being out later that night. Guess who is stuck paying for the ticket now? For $943 I would hope they could plug in the lights. Disappointed to say the least.

Since I have started going to Beach Auto, I have been very pleased. But this trip was probably the best. I've been replacing the brakes on my car and couldn't understand why I was doing it so often. The guys found out what the issue was, repaired it and took good care of me. I will definitely continue to use Beach Auto for all of my car repairs.

What a farce of a repair shop! Quoted me 1700 for a starter for my son’s car. (BTW…he’s in the Army) I called the dealership and was quoted 780. Total rip off artists thinking they can take advantage of a member of the military just bc he’s young and they thought they could get away with it.

Had my car towed to this shop. They had it a few hours. Called and couldn't do the job it may need. Charged me $160. Suspect valve body. Took it to another shop..... had it test driven several times and put on the code reader..... come to find out, there is nothing wrong. So what exactly were they doing and charging for? I won't be going back there.
