I guess the area of the business dictates the price it charges its customers. London Bridge quoted over $4K to fix a water pump. I think they provided me the (you're not from around here and you can't afford us price) instead of the actual fair and reasonable price. They must have thought they diagnosed an aircraft but since I do not own one of those, I was resolved to feeling like I may not have fit as the right customer. Nevertheless, obtaining quotes and checking market research is always the best way to know if you're been scammed by places like wonderful London Bridge. The actual part and labor for my vehicle from 4 other shops priced out to the mid $2K range. I should have worn a clown suit that day while looking at their quote, we probably would have laughed together.

Just received my Cadillac back from them and I am very pleased with the work done here. Was brought in due to some damage on my front end that also bent my license plate. These guys went above and beyond to put the plate back on as best as possible and even washed my car. Thanks again!!

I made an appointment 1 week in advance and told them what the car needs (state inspection, oil change, cabin filter, tire rotation and investigate a squeaking noise).
Dropped off the car at 6am. After no update I called at 2pm and got told not sure if the car will be done the same day because they have not even taken it into the shop.
Called again at 4:45pm and got told it is ready for pick up.
At first I was happy but after I saw they only did the state inspection and recommended to replace the belts for the squeaky. I wrote on the drop off envelope up to $300 no need for approval but for whatever reason they never reached out and just automatically declined to change the belts.

Overall disappointed with the service but hey at least the state inspection is done...

I was in a car accident and police called London Bridge Motors to Tow my Vehicle. The driver i believe Phillip was his name was very helpful and understanding with all my questions which was nice of him since my experience with tow truck drivers in the past was not very good one. I just want to thank him again for the help and great job he did with loading up my vehicle

I’ve been using London Bridge motor for over 20 years for myself, my family and my business. They do quick and honest work. I like the fact that they never try to upsell and look for things to replace or repair that may not be needed like other shops do. Keep up the good work and will always be coming back.

I picked my car up where I was told a completely different priced owed that was told to me before agreeing to the work. I also pointed out new damage that was on my car that they said it was already there previously. I know for a fact it was not as we walked around the car before I left it. Very unhappy.

I have never had a bad experience at London Bridge Motors. I service my two older cars, both with over 100K miles here. They do good work and do not try and upsell you or get you to do repairs you may not need. I have enjoyed interacting with and dealing with Robert and Michelle and would recommend London Bridge Motors

This place is great. I’ve only come here for inspections but they’re very professional and efficient. You can make an appointment for drop off or to wait. If you choose to wait, they’ll prioritize your car to get you out ASAP.

I had a great experience. To pass inspection the van needed a couple of items, which were fixed in less than a day and were reasonably priced. That is why I take my vehicles there.

We have been using LBMC since 1974. They handle all our mechanical and paint and body work. They are fair, honest, very prompt and professional. We highly recommend them for their caring attitude and expert workmanship. As a PostScript, yesterday there was a big wreck in front of our house on Atlantic Avenue in VB. LBMC was called by the insurance company of the "at fault" young driver to pick up and clean up the totaled car, and it's road debris and the related hazardous oil & fluid spill. Harry H. showed up with the LBMC rolloff truck and quickly and efficiently loaded up the totaled vehicle and all the major debris and fluids. We greatly appreciated the swift response and professional approach to the accident site.

Brought my car here for an insurance claim after my car was side swiped. Everyone I interacted with at London Bridge was extremely kind and easy to talk to, no complaints at all about that. Unfortunately the attention to detail on the finished product was not what I expected. Because of their good reviews I waited several weeks extra to bring my car here compared to other shops, but it looks like the end result would have been about the same.

Here are the details. Before bringing my car home from the shop I noticed that one of the doors, which had been replaced, wasn’t sitting flush against the body. I pointed it out and they brought it back in the shop and adjusted it. No problem. After bringing the car home I noticed that the grill on the front bumper hadn’t been inserted properly and was a little off center. One of the side view mirrors had not been tightened to the door completely and rattled when shutting the door, and was very easy to move with minimal effort. One of the parking sensors on the bumper wasn’t inserted properly and isn’t even close to flush against the bumper. The double sided tape that they used to reattach the emblems to my car are way thicker than any automotive double sided tape I’ve ever seen, so now the reattached emblems look like they’re floating over the paint. I made the choice to fix all of these my imperfections myself at home since I’m capable of working on my own car, and I trust my attention to detail.

As for things I can’t fix? The paint! The areas where body panels had to be painted have some of the most obvious orange peel I’ve seen on a repaired car. There are obvious dimples and imperfections in the brand new paint where there clearly shouldn’t be, and where there weren’t before the accident.

Everyone there as very nice, but it doesn’t change the end product being substandard.

When my daughter was 16, we took her car to London Bridge Motor. Before I could coach her on how to talk about her car to a mechanic, she said, "I think it is a transmission problem". I thought, oh dear, this is going to be expensive. But I was surprised and delighted when the mechanic returned and explained that the problem was NOT a transmission problem, but a loose component that needed to be tightened...which he did for $20.
Since that day, London Bridge Motor has been the only vehicle repair facility that I trust. Their honesty and integrity earned my loyalty.

London Bridge Motor Company (LBMC) consistently has given my family and I excellent customer service for the past ten plus years: effective communication, timely repairs, and overall great work. The owners, the Moore Family, are absolutely wonderful. My family and I know with certainty that our vehicles are in capable and safe hands with LBMC's expert mechanics, and we do not worry about feeling cheated or unfairly charged too much money. I highly recommend London Bridge Motor Company for your automotive maintenance, needs, and repairs.

As ALWAYS the service at London Bridge Motor was OUTSTANDING. I have been having my vehicles serviced by them for the last 41 years, 1st one a 79 corvette, replaced the rear wheel bearings. Subaru, Pontiac Lemans, Toyota Paso, Dodge, Mazda protégé, Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition all serviced in a timely manner for a reasonable fee. Fair not cheap which is ok by me.
As long as I own non warranty (and warranty after it expire) vehicles London Bridge Motor will be servicing them.

Superb! After our car was towed away from the accident that was not our fault, the folks at London B Motors were attentive, sympathetic and infinitely helpful. When we came to unload stuff the next day, they got the hatch opened, gave us all the time we needed and helped make an unpleasant experience manageable.

They did what they said they would, and they had it completed by the date they originally quoted- that's all I can ask for. The car looks like new again.

Though it was an unfortunate accident that lead me to this company, they were awesome to deal with. Met me in a Saturday morning when they were closed to retrieve softball gear. They pulled my tags for me. Kept me updated on insurance lack of participation

Reviewing after receiving refund. Excellent staff and customer service up until I had a problem but that was quickly resolved with an apology. Rated for failing to repair my car, doing a repair incorrectly that could've caused long term damage, and failing to find and fix the problem when I brought the car back.

I brought my car in Feb 22 for a body shop repair for an insurance claim and to get all 4 brakes and rotors replaced. Thought all was well and left happy. Then started noticing a grinding sound when braking that was getting progressively worse. Also, insurance claim repair had failed.

Brought it back Jun 3, body shop repair for claim was fixed and a month out still holding well. As for brake problem, was told initially they could not figure out the cause then later told a worn part was found and replacing it should fix the sound. It did not. They had my car for a week before I requested to pick it up.

Jun 23 I brought my car to a mini dealership where after 30 min I was personally shown that the outer face of only the two front rotors was ground down, probably with an angle grinder (photo below). Back two rotors were new and smooth. Had the mini cooper dealership complete the repairs.

I called London bridge next day to let them know the problem and was rebuffed and told I should have brought my car back to them again. One employee at the mechanic shop said everything from we wouldn't do that, a dealership will say that cause its not original mini cooper parts (but dealership was fine with work on rear, was only a problem at the front), and maybe it happened while driving. It was insulting when all they needed to ask for was more information to evaluate the problem. After this call, photos were quickly assessed and within the hour received confirmation for refund with an apology.

Hope this was the isolated incident that I was assured it was but I will not be returning.

I've been going to London Bridge for more than 10 years and wouldn't go anywhere else. They take care of my everyday drivers as well as my classic show cars, one that is a national award winner. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

This is the BEST PLACE I have ever dealt with regarding auto repairs. We were only in town for 8 days and will not be anywhere longer than 14 days for 3 months. Our back truck window shattered after a jackknife situation. It also damaged the drivers side cab so we could not just get glass. We had to have the repairs done to the cab to get the glass in. They were amazing at getting us in and repaired in 2 days. It was 2 days earlier than expected. The entire office staff treated us like family and Brian who dealt with the estimate and repairs was amazing. The quote was 1200.00 cheaper than another place we checked. After the repairs, you would never know it had ever been damaged. It was perfect! They even vacuumed the entire truck, got all the shattered glass out, washed the truck and added tire shine. Who does that? This place does! Highly recommended this place!

Had my engine replaced and it drove horrible ever since the first day I picked it up. Took it back at least 3 times because they kept saying nothing was wrong. Then they finally fixed something else, which still didn’t fix the issue of how bad it drove. I told them again it still wasn’t driving right and they said they couldn’t find anything wrong. I was later told by another shop that the engine they put in was bad and I have to replace it again. Owner seemed nice but the quality of the work I received just wasn’t it, especially with the amounts I paid out of pocket. I wasted almost $3000 on a used engine that made my car run horribly and I still have to pay to have replaced all over again.

They never pressure for additional work, but let you know what passed, but needs attention!

Needed to have my front brakes fixed. They called before starting work on my truck to see if I wanted to replace all parts or keep some that were still ok. It was nice to be given the option.

Had dropped my car off in the morning before they opened because my car was running rough. They let me know the problem and the cost to fix (promptly enough as I had not made an appointment). The tech later called to let me know that my oil was running low and they could take care of that, but I declined that due to my dealership usually handling the oil changes - but when I came to pick up my car I had seen that they had taken care of that "on the house"! You never see customer service like this anymore and I consider myself blessed that London Bridge Motor Co. is around to handle my automotive repair needs.

Michael Rodriguez

I go to London Bridge Motors at least 3-4 times a year for all of my family auto needs (state inspections, oil changes etc.). Michele always greets everyone with a professional attitude and a friendly smile. She is also very efficient. Since I had called and made an appointment yesterday when I walked in today she had my paper work all ready. Just one more sign that they care about their customers. To top it off Chris gave me a ride to work. Not too many places take such great care of their customers. They have earned my business and I highly recommend them.

We had two cars needing state inspection. London Bridge scheduled both inspections for the same day and informed me when complete. Great service. Thank you London Bridge.

I've been a loyal customer for over 40 years. I first visited them at their original location in London Bridge and have kept coming back. I perform much of my own mechanical work. Harry does most of my inspections and he ensures that my vehicles are safe and reliable. Any repairs are fairly done and priced. A solid christian based family operation that prides itself on honesty and great customer service.

I know I can trust London Bridge to do a quality job in a timely manner!

The folks at London Bridge Motor Co. have always been very helpful and straightforward in regards to work that needed to be done on our families' vehicles. We have been very pleased with their efforts to complete the work in a timely manner at fair prices. I feel confident with their recommendations of work that needs to be done and in some instances letting us know the work recommended from a dealership was not really necessary. 4-26-2020 Update from recent service: London Bridge Motor continues to provide the quality and excellent service they always have. It's great to have confidence in the people working on our vehicles.

If you want an honest, reasonably priced auto repair shop, you can't beat London Bridge Motor Co. They always save you money compared to other auto shops. Dependable and a great family of workers.

We Answer Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing questions
1. What is the average roof replacement cost for a residential home?
+-

The average roof replacement cost for a residential home typically ranges from $7,000 to $15,000, depending on factors such as roof size, chosen materials, roof pitch, and labor rates in your area. Premium materials or complex designs may increase the price.

2. How much does it usually cost to replace the roof of a commercial building?
+-

3. What factors affect the overall roof repair cost?
+-

Several factors influence roof repair cost, including the extent of the damage, roof accessibility, material type, labor costs, and whether it’s a general repair or an emergency fix. Minor repairs can start around $150–$400, while major repairs may exceed $1,500.

4. What is the typical roof leak repair cost, and how is it calculated?
+-

Roof leak repair cost generally ranges from $300 to $800, depending on the size and location of the leak, the materials required, and labor intensity. Complex leaks involving structural repairs or interior damage will cost more.

5. What is the average flat roof repair cost for commercial buildings?

Service questions
1. Should I stay home during roof replacement?

It's not necessary to stay home during roof replacement. Roofing work is noisy and can cause vibrations inside the house, which might be uncomfortable. Most homeowners choose to leave during major parts of the project, but our team ensures safety and keeps you updated, whether you're home or not.

2. How long does roof replacement take?
+-

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?
+-

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
