The Highest Rated Auto Repair in Orem

  1. Cleggs Mobile Mechanic★ 5.0221 reviews · Mobile & Shop · owner claimed
  2. Curbside Mobile Oil★ 5.081 reviews · Specialty
  3. Optimize Auto★ 5.069 reviews · Repair Shop
  4. Brooks Mobile Auto Repair★ 5.060 reviews · Mobile & Shop
  5. C&C AUTO REPAIR★ 5.020 reviews · Repair Shop

The best reviewed business in Orem right now is Cleggs Mobile Mechanic, at 5.0 stars across 221 reviews. Every shop above clears 4.3 stars with at least 15 reviews behind it, which is the point where a rating starts meaning something. Plenty of shops hold five stars on four reviews. That is not the same thing.

Of the 24 businesses listed in Orem, there are 14 that will come to you and 14 with a workshop you drive to. 1 of them has been claimed by the owner, which means somebody has confirmed the hours, the phone number and what they actually work on. An unclaimed listing is not a worse business. It just means we built the record and nobody has corrected it yet.

Getting a Car Fixed in Orem

Independent shops in Utah usually charge $95 to $135 an hour for labor, which is about the national average. A quote is the book time for the job times that rate, plus parts. At Utah rates, a coolant flush runs about $90 to $210 and a brake fluid flush runs about $70 to $170 for a midsize car.

Of the 23 Orem listings that post their hours, 12 open on Saturday and 5 on Sunday. 7 open before 8 AM on weekdays, which helps if you need to drop the car off before work.

17 businesses in Orem have at least 15 reviews, enough for a rating to mean something, and 17 of those hold 4.5 stars or better. Half of them have 75 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, Orem has 2 diesel specialists, 1 tire shop, 2 RV and trailer shops and 1 heavy duty and fleet shop. Call ahead with the year, make and model so you do not waste a trip.

Safety inspections ended for most passenger cars on January 1, 2018. Emissions tests are required before registration in Cache, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah and Weber counties, mostly every two years, and newer cars are exempt for their first years. Tests are done at On the Spot Renewal stations, and a VIN inspection is needed when a vehicle is titled in Utah for the first time. Details are on the Utah Division of Motor Vehicles site.

Owning a Car in Orem

Summers here bring about 56 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 108 nights a year. Cold is when a weak battery finally fails, because a cold engine takes more power to turn over. Orem averages 45 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.

The average commute in Orem is 20 minutes each way, and 67% of workers drive there alone.

Independent shops in Utah usually bill $95 to $135 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 Utah require a car inspection?

Safety inspections ended for most passenger cars on January 1, 2018. Emissions tests are required before registration in Cache, Davis, Salt Lake, Utah and Weber counties, mostly every two years, and newer cars are exempt for their first years.

Look at the review count as well as the stars, because five stars from four people tells you very little. 1 of the 24 listings in Orem has been claimed by the owner, who confirmed the details. Get the quote in writing before any work starts.

Does it cost more to use a mobile mechanic in Orem?

Usually not. 14 of the businesses in Orem 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 Orem affect my car?

How do I check a mechanic's license in Orem?

Ask the shop for any state or city license it holds and get the estimate in writing before work starts. None of the 24 listings in Orem has given us a license number yet. Rules differ by state, so check with Utah's consumer protection office if a shop's answer sounds wrong.

Why do some Orem listings have photos and others do not?

4 of the 24 listings in Orem 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.

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. 14 of the Orem listings come to you, 22 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.

How much does a mobile mechanic cost in Orem?

Most mobile mechanics in Orem price by the job, not the hour. Independent shop labor in Utah runs about $95 to $135 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.

Is $100 an hour fair for mechanic labor in Utah?

Yes. Typical independent shop labor in Utah is about $95 to $135 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.

Who is the best mobile mechanic in Orem?

By rating and review count together, the strongest mobile mechanics in the Orem area right now are Cleggs Mobile Mechanic (5.0 stars, 221 reviews), BJ Mobile Brake (5.0 stars, 88 reviews) and Curbside Mobile Oil (5.0 stars, 81 reviews). We weigh stars against how many reviews back them, so a perfect score on a few reviews does not win.

What are the downsides of using a mobile mechanic?

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.

How do I shop around for car repairs?

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.
