What a driveway fix looks like
Six things we fix where the car sits, shown as studies — before, then after. Always played forward; nothing here is a customer's car.
Corroded terminals → clean
Car won't start? Often it's this. Cleaned and tightened where it sits.
More on Battery & jump start
Hazed headlight → clear
Yellowed lenses dim the road at night. Restored in the driveway.
More on Other repairs
Black oil → fresh
Oil and filter at your home or work, while you get on with your day.
More on Oil change
Clogged cabin filter → new
If the A/C smells or barely blows, this is the first thing we check.
More on A/C
Worn rotor and pads → new
Pads and rotors, done where the car is parked. Written estimate first.
More on Brakes
Grimy engine bay → clean

How it works
What happens when you call.
Five steps from the first call to the invoice. The two marked California law are not favors: the law gives them to every auto-repair customer.
You call or text
Tell us the year, make and model, what the car is doing and where it is: (323) 413-4378. Not sure what a warning light or a new noise means? What is urgent and what can wait.
You hear what can be done
Before anyone sets off, you know whether it can be fixed where the car sits and when Frank can get there. If it needs a lift or a shop, you hear that first, not after the work has started.
Nothing starts without your OK
California lawA written estimate — and your OK — before any work starts. Nothing above the estimate without your authorization. Any teardown quoted with the cost and time to put it back together.
The repair, where the car sits
Your driveway, your work or the roadside, with the parts brought to you. If anything unexpected turns up, you hear about it before it goes on the car.
You pay when it's done
California lawAn itemized invoice that says whether parts were new, used or rebuilt. Your replaced parts back, if you ask for them.
Steps 03 and 05: Business & Professions Code §9884.8–9884.10; 16 CCR §3353, §3353.1, §3356.

Straight answers
Yes. Your driveway, your work, or the roadside. That is the whole service: you never have to get the car to a shop. Check your ZIP on this page and the answer tells you whether Frank's comes to you.
The full guide Apartment, garage or street parking: how a mobile mechanic works where you park
Yes. The phone is answered around the clock, every day — 2 a.m. on a Sunday included. Call or text (323) 413-4378 with where the car is and what it is doing, and you hear what can be done before anyone sets off.
The full guide Mobile mechanic, shop, or tow? How to decide when the car won't move
It depends on where you are and what is ahead of you in the day, so we give you a real time rather than a promise. Call or text (323) 413-4378 with where the car is and Frank tells you when he can be there before you wait for anything.
You get a written estimate before we touch the car, with parts and labor spelled out, and nothing is added above it without your OK — that is California law for every auto repair customer. What a job costs depends on the car and what it needs, so the number comes from that estimate rather than a price list.
The full guide What a mobile mechanic costs in Los Angeles — and how to read the estimate
Your ZIP answer says whether one may apply, and any fee is confirmed with you before we roll, never discovered on the invoice. Across the core of the Valley you will see "Yes. We come to" your city; farther out, the answer says "in range; a travel fee may apply".
Most of what stops a car — battery, starter, alternator, brakes, a check-engine light — can be diagnosed and fixed where it sits. A few jobs need a lift or a shop, like a transmission rebuild or an alignment, and we tell you right away if yours is one of them rather than starting something we cannot finish.
The full guide What can't be fixed in a driveway — and what can
The estimate says which parts the job needs and what they cost, and we bring them to you. Tell us the year, make and model up front and the right parts come on the first visit; if something unexpected turns up, you hear about it before it goes on the car.
Ask when you book and we confirm what works for you. You pay after the work is done, against the itemized invoice, which also states whether the parts were new, used or rebuilt.
More questions, answered in depth: all the guides.

Call or text with the year, make and model and what it is doing. You get a written estimate before we start.
