Marky and Ray are professional, friendly, helpful and informative. I got several estimates from other repair shops but I felt more comfortable trusting Tool's. They didn't let me down. Dennis Reeves

We hire the best people we can, Dennis, and that's very important to us. Training and experience are necessary, but those can be developed if you start with great people. Marky and Ray are a big reason why our Valley Springs shop has such a good reputation. Thanks you!

Toole’s came through for me again. Jason helped me with problem solving, offered to negotiate for me with an auto parts store that I’d bought a part from (which wouldn’t work), and even gave me advice on a better dealership to get safety recall service from. (He was absolutely right.) More reasons why I’ve been a loyal customer for over a decade.

I'm immensely proud of my team, Andy, and I love that Jason was able to be such a great resource for you. He really knows his stuff, and that's one of the benefits of going to a great shop - we hire great people who can provide you next-level service. It's not just parts and labor, it's the knowledge and advice that gets us so many excellent reviews. And you've seen us work our magic with your gas-powered car, a couple of hybrids and your EVs! Thanks so much, Andy.

Both my car and myself are in excellent hands. They care and have the knowledge to take good care of my car. I trust them and that's very important because I am an old lady now.

Some of our favorite customers are old ladies, Christine! You threw us a bit of a curve ball with your Subaru, and I'm glad to hear that our team got you sorted out so effectively. We hire very skilled staff, but it's most important that they are fine people who are committed to doing the right thing - always. We back our work with a fantastic warranty, and we try to give you great service and a great experience every time. Thank you for your thumbs-up!

Tooles Garage Valley Springs CA is excellent 👌 They fixed the original issue and in going through the car found some very important items that also needed to be fixed or replaced. The mechanics there know their craft!! Cars are expensive to maintain but cars are our tools and we need them to be in top shape. I feel my Nissan Murano was definitely in the right hands!! Literally. Lol

We couldn't have said it better ourselves, Linda! We do an inspection whenever a car is in our shop precisely because we often find hidden problems. Most drivers never get underneath their car, so they are often surprised to discover that items are due for maintenance, or beginning to wear out, and we can do those services before the component fails, often saving our customers money. Glad to hear that our team in Valley Springs took great care of you and your Nissan!

Their quotes were expensive and they gave very little advice and they didn't it wasn't all female employee shop which is what they advertised or at least I saw it when I pulled it up on Google Big easy impression that all the mechanics for females which I figured I could relate to but not the case front guy just didn't get very much information at all and want to charge $225 bucks just to diagnose my transmission image that's what I already knew it was bottom line is like 225 bucks I was not impressed with that at all

Thank you for sharing your experience — we genuinely appreciate your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your visit didn’t meet your expectations. We strive to provide clear, helpful communication and transparent pricing. Our diagnostic process is thorough and backed by certified technicians, which is why it includes a fee — especially for complex issues like transmission concerns. A low fluid level could cause transmission symptoms that can be corrected without requiring a transmission replacement. Regarding the impression of an all-female staff, we do proudly employ women and we are a woman-owned business, but we’re not an all-female team. We never intend to mislead. Thank you again for your feedback — we’re always working to improve.

I took my vehicle in to get a major repair done and I received EXCELLENT EXCELLENT SERVICE every single person I interacted with was AWESOME I feel toole’s garage are one of the last few honest places to get a vehicle serviced or repaired. I definitely had a great experience here. And they kept me updated and explained everything in detail and didn’t leave me feeling confused about my car. Definitely check them out.
