San Carlos & Valley Springs Auto Repair

This is my go to garage in now when I come to the Peninsula! I grew up in Belmont and was visiting some old friends with my kids when my car started making a funny sound. With kids I thought it's better to be safe than sorry so I yelped mechanics in the area. Toole's Garage had outstanding reviews so I called them.They were super friendly over the phone... great start! And then when I walked in, the wife of the husband/wife couple that own it and I recognized each other from 36 years ago!!! We went to grammar school together! It was a hoot catching up with her! I met her husband/owner and son, who both work there, and her other son who happened to stop by... all very nice, a nice family-run business!The mechanic took me into the garage, which was spotless btw, to thoroughly explain and show me what was wrong with my car. He fixed all that was necessary essentially as a walk-in appointment while we were treated to snacks, water and cartoons!They were very honest, fair,friendly and fast! They would be my garage of choice if I still lived in the area. For all of you that do, you are lucky to have them!

I'm always impressed by their outstanding customer service. They always go above and beyond what needs to be done - but never in order to make more money.

Another great job! Went in to get my Honda serviced to replace an oil pan and vTEC gasket. They had been watching the oil pan for about the last five years. I like that they keep good medical records of your car and keep an eye on what needs to be done now and what can wait. They aren't trying to sell you a part or service--they are trying to keep your car running smoothly when your car needs those repairs and not when they need to sell you something. If you aren't getting your car serviced here, you are missing out on the most honest/quality work vehicle inspections and repairs there is on the planet! And the best part is that the owners Dave, Audra, and Beau are fantastic people!

Absolutely fantastic. Fast, polite service, and flexible too - they fit me in even though they were fully booked. If you need a mechanic, come see these guys!

Just needed an oil change. The staff were so accommodating with scheduling and incredibly courteous. They gave me an inspection of wheel alignment/balance, fluid levels and other inspection points that I wasn't expecting. While I was waiting for my car a few other customers came in. It was apparent that they were repeat and very satisfied customers that trust this garage. I highly recommend this garage!

Fantastic place wonderful people very efficient so glad I brought my car to tooles will highly recommend to all my family and friends

The staff was great super friendly. Beau got me all set up and Tony/Tom (forgot sorry) helped me out when the car was done. Went over the different point checks and recommendations. I went to my car and noticed that the floor mats were cleaned. It was a nice surprise and just added to my satisfaction with going to them. Thanks Toole Garage!!

Wow, finally found an auto repair shop that won't rip you off, will treat you like family and offer great customer service with a smile. Tony and Beau are great to deal with and will cheerfully explain the service being performed and offer recommendations and solutions. Oh and by the way the shop offers a shuttle service which is something no other shop I have been to offers. Other Auto Repair shops can learn a thing or two from Too'ls Garage as to how to treat their paying customers.

Always a pleasure to take my Prius to Toole's garage, I am very confident the job will be done correctly. I am looking forward to my next appointment.

Friendly service. They made me feel that they know what my car needed and had reasonable recommendations on what needed fixing. I brought my car in for the 60k service and it now runs very smoothly. Definitely will be coming back for all my future check-ups.
