Words from our clients

My wife purchased an interior car detailing for Fathers Day, and I just want to say Thank You to the crew at Yates! We were both blown away by the work that was done to bring my 4 year old cloth seats (with plenty of wear from our toddler) back to NEW condition! I could not believe it. I didn’t think it was possible! We noticed during the holidays that the crew was having a Christmas Party in their shop and loved that Yates hosted a party to celebrate, so we wanted to find a way to support the business. I will be telling everyone I know about their services, and highly recommend the car detailing to anyone who wants to see their car look like dealership new again!

Thank you for the 5-star review, Ray! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with us. We work hard to provide a professional and efficient service, so it's great to know that we met your expectations. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you again in the future!
Yates automotive is a “White Whale” in the local auto repair business. They are highly skilled, customer focused and high integrity. I recently had my 2008 Jaguar XKR diagnosed by Yates for a warning light issue after receiving a really expensive diagnosis elsewhere. Yates honestly diagnosed it as a loose electrical connection and a minor repair. Well done Rob and the Yates family for your integrity. You now have my business on all 3 of our cars!!

Absolutely incredible customer service. Trustworthy and they get things done in a timely manner. I was a little all over the place when I went in to get my emissions done and they were extremely patient as well as courteous. I will be using Yates automotive from now on. You guys made my day. 10/10 service!!!

"First Class ! Went in for a basic oil change/service and received a freshly washed, clean vehicle at no additional cost; totally unexpected. Extremely personable service. I'll never go anywhere else."
