Auto Repair Shops and Mobile Mechanics in Orlando, FL

We list 116 in Orlando, FL. That covers mobile mechanics, workshops, diesel and heavy duty specialists, body shops and tire shops. Every one has its own page with the phone number, what they work on and the reviews we have found.

Exotic Mobile Tire currently holds the highest rating in Orlando at 5.0 stars from 201 reviews. Exotic Mobile Tire, Interstate Mobile RV Service, LLC, Braden’s Car Care/Mobile Mechanic LLC are the top three by rating among businesses with a real review history behind them. We rank on the ratings themselves and nobody can pay to appear there.

Yes. 96 of the businesses we list in Orlando will travel to you rather than making you bring the car in. That covers most servicing, brakes, batteries, diagnostics and plenty of repairs that do not need a lift.

Independent shops in Florida usually bill $95 to $140 an hour for labor. The national range is $95 to $140. Dealers charge more. Most quotes are the book time for the job times that rate, plus parts, so ask the shop how many hours it is billing you for.

Florida does not require periodic safety or emissions inspections for passenger cars. The state's emissions inspection rules were repealed in 2010. A used vehicle coming in from another state needs a VIN verification on form HSMV 82040 or 82042 before it can be titled in Florida.

Yes. 69 of the businesses we list in Orlando show Sunday hours, including Braden’s Car Care/Mobile Mechanic LLC, MK - Mobile Mechanic Orlando and MMO - Mobile Mechanic Orlando. Call first, because Sunday hours are often short and some only take emergencies.

Look at the review count as well as the stars, because five stars from four people tells you very little. 4 of the 116 listings in Orlando have been claimed by the owner, who confirmed the details. Florida's Motor Vehicle Repair Act requires paid repair shops to register with the state, and the bill cannot go over the written estimate by more than $10 or 10 percent (up to $50) without the customer's consent. Customers must get a copy of any document they sign. Get the quote in writing before any work starts.

Usually not. 96 of the businesses in Orlando come to you, and with no building to pay for, they often charge a bit less than a shop. What they cannot do in a driveway is work that needs a lift or a press, so heavy jobs still go to a shop.

Orlando averages about 110 days a year at 90°F or hotter. Heat wears out batteries faster than cold does, and it is hard on the AC, the cooling system and tires. Test the battery every year once it is three years old and have the AC checked before summer.

The most reviewed junkyards and used parts yards near Orlando are U-Pull-&-Pay Orlando, Central Florida Pick & Pay and Orlando Auto Parts & Recycling. U-Pull-&-Pay Orlando and Pick Your Part - Orlando let you pull the part yourself. Call before you go, because what is on the lot changes daily.

Yes. PPI Auto, our sister company, inspects used cars in Orlando for $225 on most cars, pickups and SUVs. The inspector comes to the car, runs a 122 point check and sends the report the same day. Call 951-267-8500 to book.

Ask the shop for any state or city license it holds and get the estimate in writing before work starts. None of the 116 listings in Orlando has given us a license number yet. Rules differ by state, so check with Florida's consumer protection office if a shop's answer sounds wrong.

21 of the 116 listings in Orlando show a photo or logo. They come from the owner, from the business's own website, or from our own jobs for Supercanic locations. We never put a stock or AI photo on someone else's business. Owners can claim their listing free and add their own.

We call, text and email the businesses we list to confirm their details, and listings whose numbers turn out to be dead come off the directory. 4 of the 116 in Orlando have been claimed and confirmed by the owner. 1 passed our qualification review. Nobody can pay to rank higher.

Because we work with these mechanics, not just list them. Besides checking listings, we run free study guides and certification exams for mechanics, publish repair cost guides by state, and give shops software to send written quotes and invoices. 96 of the Orlando listings come to you, 109 carry a rating with the review count beside it, and the order on this page follows the published rules on our How We Rank page.

Most mobile mechanics in Orlando price by the job, not the hour. Independent shop labor in Florida runs about $95 to $140 an hour, and mobile prices usually land in the same range for the same repair. Some add a trip fee and some fold it in. Ask for one total price, trip included, before they drive out. Our repair cost guides show typical parts and labor for each job.

Yes. Typical independent shop labor in Florida is about $95 to $140 an hour, so $100 is inside the normal range. Dealers often charge more. What matters most is the total. Ask how many hours the job is quoted at and compare that with a second shop.

By rating and review count together, the strongest mobile mechanics in the Orlando area right now are Dimas Auto Mobile Service (5.0 stars, 434 reviews), Exotic Mobile Tire (5.0 stars, 201 reviews) and AD1 Mobile Auto Services (5.0 stars, 145 reviews). We weigh stars against how many reviews back them, so a perfect score on a few reviews does not win.

Some work needs a shop. Transmission swaps, engine rebuilds, alignments and anything that needs a lift go to a garage. Bad weather can push back a driveway job, and you need a safe, legal place to park where the mechanic can work. Many mobile mechanics also run a shop, or will tell you up front when a job needs one.

Get a written estimate that lists parts and labor. Call two or three shops with the same estimate and ask each for a total price. Ask what warranty comes with the parts and the work. Read recent reviews, not just the star score. A shop that explains the problem clearly and shows you the old part is a good sign.
