Carpenters Garage, LLC

We own and operate Car Forensics a local Mobile Auto Service and Onsite Diagnostics Unit in Vancouver, Wa. One of the challenges in Auto Repair for us, is being able to be competitive on routine maintenance. Tune ups, Oil changes and other basic maintenance needs on certain vehicles, can at times be completed more affordably by a trusted shop with an indoor lift.
We are blessed to have connected with this facility and now have the flexibility to better serve our customers vast and unique requirements by referring them to the talented and friendly staff at this shop. The Heart of Service that exists here is remarkable.
Thanks to Mike, Mark, Jermey and the Team for all you do.

This is a great place and they do a great service to the community for those needing car repairs who are on a limited income. I was referred here by some friends from church and they offer you a discounted rate on labor if you are low-​income (you fill out an application). I got a deep discount and they did a great job on the diagnosis. My dad’s a mechanic so we did the repair ourselves, but they did the diagnosis and did it right. Very honest shop. Yes, they’re busy so CALL AHEAD. Avoid walking in as you will most likely be told to call and make an appointment and if needed, fill out the application for the discount. Their labor rate is very reasonable without the discount as well. If you have trouble affording car repairs, go see Carpenters and they will help! Note: they aren’t on Whitman anymore but off 112^th Ave by SEH.

These guys fixed my car for super cheap and the philosophy is life changing. BUT the customer service was terrible. Word of advise = CALL AHEAD!!!
If you show up as a walk-​in (like most other shops) the lady in the office will treat you like you are an idiot. No sympathy, just contempt. They really need to work on this part of the business because 1^st impressions are everything.

I got my car repaired here on a scholarship that I didn’t think I’d qualify for. Great service, fair price— I defiantly go there again for car repairs.
