Chris does excellent work, is fair and honest. Would highly recommend.
Chris is very competent. I was losing my headlights in an older model Lexus. As it turns out there was a wiring problem. He did a great job finding the underlying problem that led to a good … More outcome. I would highly recommend Chris at Coastal rebuilders at 38 Covil Avenue near Markets Street. While they specialize in electric and AC services; they also provide general automative repair and maintenance services. Less
