Adam and Bobby are real professionals and they were very helpful with a “new” older car I purchased which had numerous things that needed to be repaired. They did a great job keeping me informed of the progress and completion of the project at a fair price. I highly recommend them!

Woke up to a flat tire on Sunday. Inflated it enough to drive to Caton’s and leave for Night Drop. Next morning repair was done. Found nail in the tread. Always excellent service at Caton’s. They are a family owned business and generations of our family have been going to them. Friendly, honest, reliable, reasonably priced!

Caton’s is by far the best auto mechanic service in the area. Friendly, competent, fair, everything a consumer looks for these days. I could never say enough positive comment to do Caton’s justice. Excellent describes all they do.

I do not trust just anyone with my vehicle its my only means of making a living. My truck has over 200k mile and runs better than most new trucks thanks to Catons Auto. Catons has a long history of great service (generational to be exact). I have used this shop for over 20 years their knowledge, skills and commitment to excellence sets the bar at a level unachievable by their competition.

They were very attentive, informative, and accommodating during the whole repair process from diagnostic to completion. Night drop was also very convenient. I definitely recommend Catons for your auto repair needs.

I trust Bobby and Adam completely The business is fair priced and very professional and very thorough. The most recent visit was because I had taken my daughters car to a mechanic in Springfield and it is my belief that he just didnt want to take time to properly troubleshoot the problem. Some mechanics if they can not find the problem or diagnose with the computer, They are unable to determine what the problem is I knew without a doubt that if I brought my daughters car to Bobby Caton That they would figure out what was wrong and they did. Excellent service and excellent mechanics

I’ve been a customer as long as I can remember and never been disappointed in the service I’ve received. On this recent visit Adam recommended he perform a fuelInduction decarbonization that even the manufacturer didn’t suggest, but that is often a troublesome problem for GDI vehicles.I knew he wouldn’t suggest something unnecessary & you can’t say that about a lot of other shops. Trust Caton’s to treat you (and your vehicle) right.

Adam Caton and Caton Auto are simply the best in Woodbridge. Adam is as honest as they come. He does only what you need to keep you safe, but does not create lists of things you don’t in order to line his pockets. The quality of work is second to none, the estimates are spot on and always on time.

Review №15

I started having issues with what I suspected was wheel bearings. They identified my right front bearings was the issue and while replacing, they let me know my brake pad was worn and offered to replace with no additional labor costs. Since I had it in, I asked them to check other bearings as a preventive measure. They alerted me that the right rear bearings also had play but it was not critical to replace at this time. I appreciated the additional time they took to verify everything was safe and elected to get the work done rather than having to schedule to return at some point in the future. Thanks for a job well done!

This was my first time going Caton’s Auto. I went in for a oil change and ask for a quote for three services the dealership said I need right away ($1400 all together) . Turns out everything was fine and I only needed the oil change. Not only did they save me $1400 but the service was fantastic. I will definitely be going here from now on.

Friendly staff and reasonable pricing! This is the first time Ive felt like I could trust a mechanic shop compared to the others and Im so excited that I told my mom about them; shes already made an appointment haha. Cant believe Ive passed this place for so long and never knew how awesome it is. Theyre very knowledgeable and honest about cars and will tell you the exact price on what needs to be worked on and if its urgent or not. Definitely going to be a regular here. Thank you again!

Review №29

We initially took our car to Caton’s to get a second opinion on something another garage said we needed to get fixed. Caton’s advised me that work did not need to be done. We decided to have them check over the entire vehicle. They have us a list of things needed/should be done so we let them do it. The work was done quickly and correctly. We will make the drive to get all our cars worked on by Caton’s.

Review №33

To put it simply, if your car needs maintenance there is no place in the DMV that can match Catons. The quality of their work, plus the affordable pricing is something that you rarely see now. If you live in the Northern Virginia area, and your car needs to be serviced Catons is the only option you should consider.

Review №34

A top-rate and amazing operation at Catons Auto Repair. Bobby and his team with Adam, run a super professional and organized shop, but the best part is that they are very fair and honest. You know you are getting the straight scoop here! At every visit theyve diagnosed issues correctly that others could not and then priced repairs lower than other quotes. My cars and my childrens cars have all been here and received the best care. They are the best on the planet -- look no further!

Phenomenal service. I was told my entire fuel injection system needed replaced (by the chevy dealer of all places) so I opted for a second opinion here. Within a few hours they diagnosed the problem, recommended a cleaning service and completed it the same day. I could not be happier with the service received and professionalism of the staff. I would recommend this place to anyone.

I appreciate Caton’s. They are honest and do good work. They are really nice and polite to deal with. If you drop your vehicle off the night before, you can fill out their form and drop it and your keys off in the drop box. They’ll assess your vehicle & call you the next day with their assessment and price quote. I find this service to be of tremendous value. I highly recommend Caton’s Auto Repair!

Catons has taken care of my cars for over ten years. This is a Family Owned business and I know I can truly trust them to fix my car and at a very fair price. Bobby and Adam are excellent mechanics and businessmen. I never take my car anywhere else - if you have to wait a few days for an appointment - do it, they are worth waiting for. They always go above and beyond! They may not be the largest mechanic shop in the area, but you can bet they are THE BEST! I highly recommend them! :-)

Caton’s continues to be my auto repair shop of choice! Pat and I have great comfort that our safety is the utmost concern of Bobby and his staff of certified automotive technicians. Their work is consistent...always top-notch and and well inspected before it leaves the shop. Caton’s technician put their heart and skills into every repair and graciously receive me when I come into the shop...knowing that their work was well received and appreciated by me and my family. You can’t go wrong going to Caton’s... I am a longtime customer and I will continue to take my cars there. You’re more than a number there, you’re a person who requires a safe vehicle to drive. Caton’s assures you that you will drive a safe car...without concerns. Try them you’ll become a lifetime customer too!

Needed oil changed and check engine light checked out before school started, they were able to get us in the next day. They are the best!! We’ve gone through several mechanics in the area until Caton’s. Have been going to them over 10 years and they are always super friendly and upfront, never charging for needless work. My favorite story is going to them when the sliding door in my minivan stopped working. Got a call from Adam explaining he pushed the button on the console but didn’t see any other problem, could I elaborate. Didn’t charge me a thing! Knew right then we found our auto shop for life!!!

Great auto repair. Honest about what it cost and if you need it done.

Review №68

I have always entrusted my vehicles to Catons Auto Repair. Their service has always been honest and fair and they treat you like a close friend or family. In fact, the family owned and operated factor is one of the best aspects of dealing with them. We have had situations in which we have taken a vehicle in assuming there was a major problem (an oil leak) and it turned out to be that the person (not Catons) who last changed the oil did not tighten the new filter! Adam tightened it and topped off the oil level and did not charge my wife for anything! Thats just one example of their great service. I highly recommend Catons Auto Repair!

Fair price. Honest shop. I was quoted a price and when I picked my truck up, the price was actually cheaper because a part they thought needed to be replaced turned out to be good. So, instead of replacing it and charging me, they only replaced what was needed. I would never have known the difference. I live in NY. I am definitely not used to that!

This was my very first time at Catons, and I have to say I am impressed with the service my car received. From check-in to check-out, everything was awesome! I got the call that my car was ready at the end of the day and even though it was about 45 minutes after closing time, the mechanic stuck around so I could get there to pick up my car - the work they did was excellent and I will definitely be bringing my car back to them in the future!

I’ve taken my vehicles here for multiple issues and Caton’s has come through every time and below the cost expectation. One anxiety that always comes up before dropping any car off is what is the cost “damage”? But every time Caton’s has pleasantly surprised me with much relief. This establishment is a reliable, reasonable and one that I personally trust. A local business that I feel more people should know about.

Bobby Caton owns and operates a professional vehicle repair facility. He is honest and forthright in maintaining his customers vehicles. He takes the time necessary to explain repair requirements that the customer may not understand. Bobby has maintained my families vehicles for almost 30 years. We are friends as well as a customer operator relationship. I frequently ask Bobby for his opinion before I tackle a self help auto repair project.Frank

I have used Caton the last several years and been completely satisfied. I first used them when the dealership I was using didn’t have the part at the time of an appointment I had made several days earlier. Unhappy, I stopped at Caton’s and made an appointment. I had the job done a couple days later and Caton charged less for the total job than the dealership quoted for just the part. I never feel as if they are trying to take advantage of me - if something doesn’t need to be done they will tell me so. I highly recommend Caton’s Auto Repair.

I have been a customer to Caton’s for the past 6 years and every experience has been excellent.They put service to the customer as a top priority and I have recommended their work to numerous people in Woodbridge. A good mechanic is hard to find and they are very good. They may not do everything but Adam and the team have done way more for me and my cars than I expected.
