Mechanical
Oil, brakes, fluids, diagnostics.
The straightforward jobs that do not need a lift and a shop. Labor is $100 an hour and everything gets quoted before a wrench turns.
- Labor
- $100/hr
- Priced
- Quoted, not menu
Straight answer first
This part is not on the menu, and here is why.
Detailing can be priced online because the work is predictable. A Complete Detail on a sedan takes about as long every time, so the number can be published and held to.
Mechanical work is not like that. The same job on two cars can differ by hours depending on what is seized, what is in the way, and what somebody did to it last time. Publishing a fixed price for that would mean either overcharging most people or quoting a number Rhett cannot stand behind, and neither is how the rest of this site works.
So this side is quoted. Tell Rhett the car and the symptom. He'll tell you what it takes and what it costs, and you decide before anything starts.
What Rhett takes on
The jobs that suit a driveway.
- quoted
Oil and filter change
Conventional or synthetic. Parts at cost, labor at the hourly rate.
- quoted
Brakes, pads and rotors
Pad and rotor replacement, front or rear. Quoted after a look at the car.
- quoted
Fluid and filter service
Coolant, brake fluid, air and cabin filters.
- quoted
Basic diagnostic
Reading codes and tracing the simple stuff. Not engine or transmission work.
What Rhett does not do
- window tint
- paint protection film (PPF)
- engine work
- transmission work
If it needs a lift, a hoist, or the engine out, it needs a shop, and Rhett will say so rather than take the job and struggle. Sending you somewhere better costs him one job and keeps the rest.
Get a number
Tell Rhett the car and the problem.
The more specific the better. Year, make, model and what it is doing gets you a real answer instead of a range. If it turns out to be something Rhett shouldn't touch, he'll tell you that too.
Detailing, correction and ceramic are all priced up front instead, on the full menu.
