Bring us the unit. We'll handle the rest.
We're a bench shop. You or your mechanic pull the starter or alternator, and we test it, rebuild it, and have it ready to go back on.
Drop it off
Bring the unit to the shop on 46 Ave in Olds. Call ahead if you need it rushed.
We test & diagnose
Every unit goes on the test bench so we find the actual fault before quoting the repair.
Rebuilt & ready
Usually same day or next, depending on parts. If a rebuild doesn't make sense, we'll offer a new or reman unit.
Bench work only. We don't remove or install units on vehicles or equipment.
Rebuild it, or replace it from stock.
Repairs, testing and parts for most starters and alternators, plus new and remanufactured units on the shelf.

Dealer-quality work without the dealer price.
We started this shop to give people an honest alternative to dealer overcharging. A rebuilt starter or alternator often costs a fraction of a new dealer part, and you get it back fast from people who have been doing this work for nearly three decades.
