Before you come in.
Everything worth knowing before your slot starts. Read it once and you'll never have to think about it again.
House rules
- You must be 18 or older to rent a bay, and nobody under 18 in the work area.
- Two people per bay, and one vehicle per bay per rental.
- Closed-toe shoes are required. Steel toe preferred.
- Safety glasses and gloves are required. We keep both on hand if you don't bring your own.
- No alcohol or cannabis anywhere on the premises.
- No painting vehicles in the shop.
- Bring your parts with you. We don't stock or source parts.
- Bring your own tools. Hand tools aren't supplied. Specialty equipment is available for an additional fee, so ask when you book.
- Park outside and come in on foot. We'll bring your vehicle into the bay.
- Arrive 15 minutes early for orientation and to sign the waiver.
- Your slot ends with the bay clear. Vehicle out, tools back, floor tidy, all inside your booked time.
Slots run back to back. When your time is up, the next person is usually already here, so plan your cleanup into your booking rather than onto the end of it. A half day means four hours of work and a clear bay at the end, not four hours of work plus packing up.
Not going to finish? Tell us as early as you can. If the bay behind you is open we'll sell you the next slot on the spot. If it isn't, we'll find you another day rather than rushing you through the last hour of a job.
Multi-day project? We stop the clock when you leave for the day and start it again when you're back.
What we don't do
- Assisted repair. You do the work. Our technicians don't turn wrenches on your vehicle.
- Tire balancing. We don't have the equipment for it.
- Wheel alignment. Not offered here.
- Stereo and audio installation. Not something we can help with.
If you're not sure whether your job fits, call before you load the car. (209) 567-2330. We'd rather tell you on the phone than in the parking lot.
How check-in works
Check-in videoComing soon. This will walk you through parking, orientation and the waiver so your first visit takes five minutes instead of twenty.
Until then, here's the short version. Park outside and come in on foot. We'll take you through a quick orientation of the bay and the lift, you'll sign the waiver, and then the bay is yours until your slot ends.
Weekdays: pitstops 8–9am and 5–6pm · half days 9–1 and 1–5 · full days 8–4 or 10–6. Saturdays: pitstop 9–10am · half day 10–2.
