We always offer a full vehicle inspection free of charge. Bring it in, and we'll go over it and give you a detailed quote on what needs to be done before anyone picks up a wrench.
Our rule is simple: tell the truth. We tell you what's truly wrong with the vehicle, give you the option to take our suggestion, and the decision to fix the car is yours.

I sent my 1999 Ford Explorer in for an inspection to see what all needed to be repaired after it had been sitting for close to a year following the passing of my father. Robby, the owner, treated me with honesty and kindness from the start. He took a couple of days to give the truck a thorough inspection and then provided a detailed quote on what needed to be done and then mentioned some additional services that were not mechanically needed, but would improve the overall quality of the truck. I went for everything.
Fast forward a week and he had everything complete. We're talking major service. He had my truck ready to go on a transport from Valdosta to Massachusetts with time to spare AND it was under what I expected to pay. I drove that vehicle for the first time in years and it performed flawlessly. For a truck with 186,000 miles and 23 years under its belt it drives smooth and without any issues.
I would strongly recommend DeLoach Automotive to anyone who is looking for service in Valdosta. Honesty, accuracy, and genuine human decency are the what you can expect. Plus, you know your car is going to be fixed correctly the first time. You can't beat that! DeLoach Automotive has my thanks for doing such a stellar job!

Robbie, the owner of Deloach Automotive, has earned himself a lifelong customer! My go to mechanic shop in Valdosta. He's HONEST and at no time did I ever feel like he wasn't. He's straight forward and to the point. His mechanic gets an A+. If you need your vehicle fixed, I would HIGHLY recommend him. Thank you Robbie! It was a pleasure meeting you.

I have been going to Deloach Automotive for over 10 years. His mechanics are the best and he is a very honest man and a great mechanic. I feel very comfortable there and I don’t feel comfortable at a lot of places. He will tell you what you need done, how urgent or if it can wait, and what you should do. I trust the place and now my son goes there too.

I have known both Robbie(owner) and Dennis (best mechanic I have ever known) for years. They will provide the most accurate diagnosis and the best repair result at the most reasonable price in Valdosta. If you need your car fixed, this is the place to go for a really top notch job. They are trustworthy , fair, and reliable people.

My son is a student at VSU and his starter went out over the weekend. DeLoach happened to be close and Robbie and his team helped out immensely. Fair pricing on labor and friendly team. I am so thankful for them and the professionalism displayed during the repair of our vehicle.
