That is not the same thing.
Of the 41 businesses listed in Lexington, there are 26 that will come to you, 17 with a workshop you drive to and 4 tire shops.

Getting a Car Fixed in Lexington
Independent shops in Kentucky usually charge $85 to $125 an hour for labor, which is below the national average. A quote is the book time for the job times that rate, plus parts. At Kentucky rates, a serpentine belt replacement runs about $70 to $240 and an oil change runs about $60 to $150 for a midsize car.
Of the 39 Lexington listings that post their hours, 30 open on Saturday and 20 on Sunday. 22 open before 8 AM on weekdays, which helps if you need to drop the car off before work.
26 businesses in Lexington have at least 15 reviews, enough for a rating to mean something, and 20 of those hold 4.5 stars or better. Half of them have 76 or more reviews. A shop with a long history and a 4.6 is a safer call than a perfect 5.0 from a handful of people.
For work a general shop may turn away, Lexington has 1 body and collision shop, 4 tire shops, 2 RV and trailer shops and 2 heavy duty and fleet shops. Call ahead with the year, make and model so you do not waste a trip.
Kentucky has no periodic safety or emissions inspection for passenger cars. A vehicle coming from another state needs a sheriff's inspection, which checks the VIN, before it can get a Kentucky title. Details are on the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet site.
Owning a Car in Lexington
Summers here bring about 25 days at 90°F or hotter. That is enough to finish off a tired battery or a weak AC compressor, so get both checked in spring rather than on the first hot day.
Lows drop to freezing on about 90 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over. Lexington averages 14 inches of snow, and road salt eats brake lines, exhaust and the underside of the car. Rinse the underbody through the winter and have the brake lines looked at whenever the car is up on a lift.
About 50 inches of rain fall in a year. Worn tires lose grip on wet roads well before they look bald, and streaky wipers are a cheap fix worth doing before the wet season, not during it.
The average commute in Lexington is 21 minutes each way, and 73% of workers drive there alone.

Pre-Purchase Inspections in Lexington
Buying a used car in Lexington? PPI Auto, our sister company, sends an inspector to the car for $225 on most cars, pickups and SUVs. That is a 122 point check with a full scan and a road test, and the report comes back the same day. Dealer lot, private seller or auction, it works the same.
There are 133 car lots within 12 miles of Lexington, and 110 of them sell used. PPI Auto grades 90 of them A to F from their reviews, and 16 get an F. See the Lexington dealer grades before you go look at a car.
Kentucky has no regular safety or emissions inspection, so unless the last owner paid for one, nobody has looked under that car.

Are there mobile mechanics in Lexington?
Yes. 26 of the businesses we list in Lexington 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 Kentucky usually bill $85 to $125 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.
Does Kentucky require a car inspection?
Kentucky has no periodic safety or emissions inspection for passenger cars. A vehicle coming from another state needs a sheriff's inspection, which checks the VIN, before it can get a Kentucky title.
Are any mechanics in Lexington open on Sunday?
Yes. 20 of the businesses we list in Lexington show Sunday hours, including Eli Roadside Assistant LLC, Golden Ratio Mobile Automotive Repair and Mobile mechanic 24/7. Call first, because Sunday hours are often short and some only take emergencies.
How do I know a shop in Lexington is trustworthy?
Look at the review count as well as the stars, because five stars from four people tells you very little. None of the 41 listings in Lexington has been claimed yet, so call to confirm hours and what the shop works on. Get the quote in writing before any work starts.
Does it cost more to use a mobile mechanic in Lexington?
Usually not. 26 of the businesses in Lexington 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.
How does winter in Lexington affect my car?
Lexington gets about 90 nights a year at or below freezing and 14 inches of snow. Cold exposes a weak battery, and salted roads rust brake lines and exhaust parts. Test the battery in the fall and rinse the underbody in winter.
Can I get a pre-purchase inspection in Lexington?
Yes. PPI Auto, our sister company, inspects used cars in Lexington 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.
How do I check a mechanic's license in Lexington?
Ask the shop for any state or city license it holds and get the estimate in writing before work starts. None of the 41 listings in Lexington has given us a license number yet. Rules differ by state, so check with Kentucky's consumer protection office if a shop's answer sounds wrong.
Why do some Lexington listings have photos and others do not?
7 of the 41 listings in Lexington 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.
