"Professional automotive service shouldn't require taking time off work, arranging transportation, sitting in waiting rooms, or paying dealership prices."
— Justin Collins
Gates Automotive Solutions was founded by a dealership-trained technician who believes vehicle owners deserve a better service experience.
After more than a decade in the automotive industry, we saw the same problem repeatedly: quality repairs were becoming more expensive, less convenient, and increasingly disconnected from the customer. Vehicle owners were spending valuable time arranging transportation, sitting in waiting rooms, and paying for the overhead costs of large repair facilities.
We believed there was a better way.
Today, Gates Automotive Solutions delivers professional maintenance, diagnostics, brake service, and repair work directly to homes, workplaces, and job sites throughout Columbia County. By bringing the service to you, we eliminate unnecessary downtime while providing the same level of professionalism and expertise you'd expect from a dealership service department.
