I’ve been using Andy’s services for a number of years. I’ve never met anyone in the car repair service that compares to his professionalism, honesty, accuracy. His pricing is very reasonable. Save your money, stay away from dealerships and use Andy’s services. I can highly recommend, without reservation using Andy as your personal services supplier.
Andy was able to diagnose the problem with my car quite quickly (and didnt charge for the diagnosis!) and scheduled a time for the next day to fix it. It was super efficient and affordable, and he explained the issue to me. The whole process was very honest and helpful. Definitely will be a return customer.
My parents have trusted Andy for over 20 years with their cara. I wont take my car anywhere else if something comes up. Andy is trustworthy and will fix my car the right way, he doesnt cut corners.Chapin Auto Services=Honesty and Integrity
Reasonably priced, very honest, hasnt let me down yet!
Andy is great. Always gives you an honest opinion. He is fair and prices are reasonable.
Ive been taking cars to Andy for 20 years. Im lucky to have found him. Great place. Honest and fair.
Very respectful and Mr. Chapin is an excellent mechanic wouldnt go anywhere else. He is very affordable
Andy Baker rocks on the American made vehicles. Great work at reasonable prices!
Andy is an outstanding guy who I can always put my faith in to work on any car I need work on.
Andy has been our mechanic for over 30 years - he is the best!
Andy is an awesome, kind, and honest mechanic, who is great at keeping a line of communication going, doing work in a timely manner, and being more than fair when it comes to price. My windshield wipers stopped working on a rainy morning, I took my car to him, he came in on a Saturday since the part came in early. Unfortunately, they stopped working the same day (due to a cut off date on the part, not his fault) and my car broke down a few days later. I took my car back in, he replaced a few spark plugs, a coil pack, and fixed the wipers, and got my car back to me in a couple hours, and didnt charge for labor. I would recommend him to anyone, and he deserves more than a 5 star review.
Amazing and honest mechanic. He quoted me at less than half of the price of a big name shop, and got the work done perfectly and very efficiently. He was even flexible with me in terms of pick up times and payment. I will never go anywhere else as long as Im in Columbus - so glad to have found Andy!
Honest mechanic, I respect that he communicates honestly. He has worked on many of my familys cars over the years. I never have any doubt that Im receiving a fair price.
Andy Chapin is the most honest guy in town! I have been going here for over 10 years now and only wish I’d have found him sooner. He will not try to sell you services you don’t need – and will more often than not – tell you that you do not need what the other guy quoted you. My son took his jeep in a few weeks ago, expecting to need new brakes. Andy told him he was just out of brake fluid and gave him the bottle half full after he put it in and sent him on his way – and would not let my son pay for it. He even chatted with him a while and gave him tips on the old thing so it might last as long as he can get it to! Andy is not only known around here for being honest, but his prices are ALWAYS far less expensive than any other shop in the area. You can also be sure that if his shop does the work – it will be done right! If his shop cannot do the work, he will let you know and give you a referral to someone else that he would trust to do it. Chapin’s is a true gem!
Andrew. Chapin. Is. The. Best. My family has been taking our cars to him for DECADES and he has never let us down, ripped us off, told us we needed something when we didnt, or otherwise led us astray. Honest, responsive, hardworking mechanic who I would trust my car with in any situation. His shop isnt set up to do everything, but hell tell you where to go when you need something he cant do. When he quits the business, I dont know what Ill do. Hard to find a mechanic like him these days.
Simply the best car repair shop in town.
Great service, honest, prompt, professional and caring 😊 Andy always keeps you informed. You know what youre in for regarding any repairs. Well continue going there for our vehicle repairs. Thank you Chapins!!
I took my car this morning, because it was making some noise and another mechanic had suggested changing the serpentine belt. Andy took a look at it and said it looked ok and the bolts just needed some tightening. He tightening my bolts and refused to take any money! I was stunned! Hands down the most honest mechanic I have seen in a very long time.
Specialized in Honda/Acura. Exceptional knowledge and superior quality with zero tolerance for gouging or unnecessary repairs. Best value in Columbus.
Best mechanic in Columbus! Ive had various mechanics over the 20 years Ive lived in Columbus and Andy is the most honest guy youll ever meet. If you just need to keep your car running, Andys your guy. If you need to keep your car running for a LONG time, Andy is still your guy. Dont call anyone else, just go to Chapins.
Best shop in town! Andy Chapin is the most honest mechanic you will find and always does the best work on cars. His service is beyond excellent and most of the time he can have your car up and running again within a day or two. Not a single bad thing to say and hes been my mechanic for the last 3 years. A good person and a good mechanic!
My family and I have visited Chapins for the past five years. I will never go anywhere else as long as Andy is in business. I have never met anyone so honest or generous. His shop is truly one of the few treasures of Columbus. Understanding and affordable, what more can you ask for?
The best! I have 2 older Toyotas and Andy has saved me hundreds on dealer recommended repairs, sometimes even doing the quick little things on the spot, and recommending where to buy parts to bring in with the car and save myself a few bucks too. Ive sent all my friends and family here. Seriously the best mechanic Ive ever worked with.
Andy returned my phone calls quickly and was very helpful answering all my questions. I am very satisfied with the work done on my car and the pricing was very fair. I would recommend Chapin’s Auto to friends and family.
We have been taking our Honda vehicles to Andy for 5 years. They are the most honest repair shop you will ever visit. At least 2 times he let me know that my brakes were OK to keep using for many more miles, never pushes unnecessary repairs. I am positive at other repairs shop I would have been told to get a brake job. Their pricing is more than competitive, and their work is always great. Highly recommend using Andy for your car repair services!
He was a great mechanic for my parents and now for myself. Does a great job and is very reliable. Highly recommend!
Great service at a price that you can feel good that it is fair. The work is always done timely and Andy is always super helpful. Would recommend to anyone looking to have routine work done to their vehicle.
Very honest, professional business! Will help diagnose problems and give you the best repair options, even if he does not do that type of work! Recommends other reliable shops when needed; hes earned my business & I will go there for any future service needed! Genuinely cares about his customers!!!
Prices are great, the work is great. Theyve always been able to get me in when its convenient for me. If I could give them more stars I would.
Andy is honest and nice as can be. I felt confident that my car was in good hands.
Andy is Awesome...been going there for years. Nevermind a 5-star. Andy is a 10-star. Honest, dependable, and on one occasion even diagnosed a problem accurately that the local Honda dealership misdiagnosed. He knows what hes doing. Super reasonable. He does Honda Odyssey timing belts at a fraction of what the dealer charges. You can count on Chapins every time.
Very honest repair shop! He diagnosed my problem on the phone after I spent $350 NOT getting it fixed at another shop. Many of my friends go here because hes trustworthy and doesnt try to get you to do unnecessary repairs like other shops.
Best mechanic you’ll ever meet. Great prices, super nice guy. I don’t go anywhere else.
My friend told me that he has been bringing his cars to Mr. Chapin for the past 30 years. That is a great recommendation! When Mr. Chapin called and told me that my car did not need any service repairs or parts, I was shocked! I really am so glad and grateful to have met an honest mechanic!!
Best, most honest service in town!
Andy is extremely knowledgeable, helpful and honest. My son and I have been bringing our vehicles to him for several years and our experiences with Chapins have always exceeded expectations. He is the best!
Everyone needs a car mechanic they can trust. I really enjoy the honesty I get from Andy. I can pay for my repair and drive away knowing that the repair was done properly and I didnt get over charged.
Andy is honest and upfront about your auto repair needs. Affordable, high quality service you can trust hands down for 20+ years I have been going there.
Has been our go to mechanic for the past 4 years and has never let us down.
Awesome place! Gives honest opinion about what needs to be fixed and what can wait.Highly recommend!!
Andy is amazing and should never retire. His hours are early, but hes so dependable and generous with checking out potential problems of new vehicles.
Andy shoots straight, no b.s. and gives more than a fair deal
Weve been taking our cars here for 20 yrs. Wouldnt go anywhere else. Honest and dependable.
I wish all garages were this honest and affordable. Andy is my go to guy for basic maintenance on our older family vehicles!
Best mechanic in the city, hands down.
Have had them work on both of our vehicles and they fixes them quick. Free estimates too which is oddly rare.
Andy is fantastic.
Excellent person with great service!
Would like to
Honest, fair and dependable
