Independent shops in Oregon usually bill $100 to $145 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.

Look at the review count as well as the stars, because five stars from four people tells you very little. None of the 10 listings in Bend has been claimed yet, so call to confirm hours and what the shop works on. A repair shop must prepare an estimate before it starts work and give the owner a copy. If the estimate shows work will cost more than $200, the shop needs the owner's authorization first. Get the quote in writing before any work starts.

Usually not. 8 of the businesses in Bend 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.
