HOW IT WORKS

Mobile auto repair in Daytona Beach, three steps

There is no drop-off, no waiting room, and no shuttle. You call, Ted comes out, and the car gets fixed where it is parked.

1

Call and describe it

Tell Ted what the car is doing — the noise, the light on the dash, when it started. He has heard most of it before and he will tell you straight whether it is something he can handle on site.

2

He drives to the car

Your driveway, your workplace parking lot, or the shoulder where it quit. Ted brings the tools and the diagnostic gear with him.

3

He fixes it where it sits

Most of what stops an everyday car can be done right there. If a job genuinely needs a lift or a shop floor, he will tell you that instead of taking it apart in your driveway.

WHERE TED DRIVES

Mobile mechanic service across the Halifax area

Ted works Daytona Beach and the communities around it every day. If you are just outside the list, call and ask — it depends where you are.

WHAT TED FIXES

On-site auto repair services in Daytona Beach

Everyday cars and light trucks. Domestic and import. These are the jobs Ted does most.

Mobile Diagnostics

Check engine light, a warning on the dash, or a car that turns over and will not catch. Ted scans it and reads what the codes actually mean.

Brake Repair

Squealing, grinding, a pedal that sinks. Pads, rotors, calipers, and brake fluid, done in your driveway.

Battery, Alternator & Starter

The three reasons a car will not start. Ted tests the whole charging system before replacing anything.

Oil Changes & Maintenance

Oil, filters, wipers, fluids, and a look over the belts and tires while the hood is up.

Cooling System & Belts

Running hot is not something to drive on in Florida. Hoses, thermostats, water pumps, serpentine belts.

Pre-Purchase Inspections

Before you buy the used car, Ted meets you at the seller and tells you what he sees.

THE MECHANIC

Forty-five years, one pair of hands

Ted has been fixing cars since the 1980s. He does not run a shop and he does not send anybody else out. When you call, you are talking to the man who is going to do the work, and when he pulls up it is the same man who answered the phone. That is the whole business, and after all this time he likes it that way.
