WESTSIDE STORY

Westside is the result of three prior incarnations from my past and Feb 2012 marks the 32^nd anniversary of my owning and operating an automotive repair facility.

We’ve been in our current location for 21 years as my original customers will agree, it just seems like yesterday that we moved in! Prior to that we spent two years in the Maple Ridge Industrial Park, battling City Hall as they refused to issue us a business licence. At that time, right in the middle of the first Gulf War, Maple Ridge had an insane restrictive covenant banning auto repair from our one and only industrial park. So we moved!

Some of you long term residents may remember my humble beginnings (I started out way back in 1977) as a mobile mechanic. At that time my company was called Tools On Wheels Mobile Auto Repair. I drove all over the lower mainland fixing just about anything, working out of a Cube Van. At the time I could not afford the high costs involved in operating a shop, so my intention was to establish my business and build a steady client base in the hopes of opening a shop one day. Fast forward 32 years and Westside is a five bay shop, fully equipped and certified to work any vehicle with any problem, including new, hybrid & diesel vehicles.

To survive in today’s business economy in any service repair industry with intense competition you must separate yourself from the rest of the pack. I decided when I started Westside that we would concentrate on newer vehicles just off their manufacturer’s warranty. We would become your alternative to the dealership. We excel in offering the personal touch and value-added services that the dealer is too big and cumbersome to offer, and at a substantial savings. We do this using their parts and service procedures with auto technicians that have more qualifications, as they are fully licenced and equipped to work on all makes, models, fuels and government regulated emissions and inspection’s procedures. This is a bold statement but we can back it up! Furthermore, our service manager and I are also just as qualified.

Quality full service certified automotive diagnostics, repair and maintenance has never been (nor will ever be) inexpensive.  We accept that fact and realise that our level of service and its cost may not be for everyone. We don’t want to work for everyone, we do however want to attract people that realise that nothing in life is free – but when they spend their hard earned money they want quality, results and service. So if you shop around and base your decisions on the lowest price, don’t bother calling us. If you want to have the job done right once, pay for it and get on with your busy life with the minimum of stress, give us a call.
Cheers,  Cyril Barry
