FAQ

Straight answers about the services we actually do. Still need a time? Book a visit.

Do I need to be home?: Someone 18 or older should be there to confirm the job and the parking spot. If you need to leave keys and go, say so when you book and we will tell you if that works for that visit.
Can you work in apartment, HOA, or work parking lots?: Default is your house. We work in the driveway. In Lehi and Saratoga Springs we need a driveway or a private parking spot; those cities do not allow repair on the public street. Apartment, HOA, and work lots are not the normal option.
How long does an oil change take?: Most oil changes are about 30 to 45 minutes on site, not counting travel. We will give a tighter window when we confirm.
How long does headlight restoration take?: About 30 to 45 minutes for both lights.
What does the $110-$145 oil total include, and when does it run higher?: Labor is $70. Oil and filter are extra and depend on the car. Most cars, SUVs, and half-ton trucks land around $110-$145 all-in. Trucks that take more oil (about 8 quarts or more) and diesels are quoted before the visit.
What does a brake job cost?: Same-day brake jobs use Duralast Gold and land in the $340-$400 per axle band. If you can wait for parts, it can come in under $300. Labor is $175 per axle either way. Rotors are the default. We skip them only if they measure good, and then you only pay for pads.
What does a brake inspection cost?: $20. We check your pads, rotors, and related brake parts on the car and tell you what we find. If you choose Ascent Auto Care for the repair, your $20 inspection fee will be applied toward the cost of your brake service.
What does a battery replacement cost?: $50 labor, plus the battery. Depends on the car. Most cars land in the $180–$280 range. We test the charging system before we sell a battery.
What if you find more work, like brakes or rotors?: We stop and tell you. A brake job is a listed service: pads and rotors per axle, rotors skipped only if they measure good. Other shop work gets quoted before we start. Headlight restoration is its own listed job. We do not add work you did not approve.
What payment methods do you take?: Venmo preferred. Cash. Cards, Apple Pay, and Google Pay on site.
How does booking confirmation work?: The form is a request, not a locked slot. We reply within a few hours by text, call, or email and confirm a time.
