Automotive in Georgetown

Bluegrass Auto Repair has been serving the community for more than 30 years. In the old days, the friendly, hospitality-driven atmosphere was obvious to passersby, thanks to the shop’s old-fashion storefront, which was lined with a row of welcoming metal lawn chairs. Today, the tradition of trust is still alive—evidenced by the many car owners who entrust the technicians to correct automotive issues ranging from faulty brakes and engine trouble to fledgling AC units. As an added convenience to its customers, the crew will even pick up vehicles and return them after service, and are always happy to answer questions about potential repairs or where baby cars come from.

Technicians at the locally owned and operated KK Auto Detailing have honed the craft of restoring cars to factory-floor condition for 15 years. Armed with clay bars and Rain-X, they whisk abrasive road grit and repel water from the shell, and draw on their experience to suss out the best technique for cleaning lipstick from upholstery.

Cars lack the opposable thumbs to wash themselves. That's why Shammy's Auto Wash, which is open 24 hours a day, cleans your finest four-wheeled suits to a spot-free shine with its ProTouch Tandem or touchless LaserWash bays. The high-pressure open-bay system uses eco-friendly products, does not have floor steel, and adjusts to fit almost every type of vehicle, whether it's a Hummer, compact car, or racecar bed.

The car-whisperers of the 50-year-old Midas franchise investigate vehicles’ road-readiness with comprehensive inspections backed by the all-encompassing Midas guarantee. A 1.5-hour wintertime assessment probes brakes, suspension, batteries, and heating and cooling systems, thereby ensuring commuters' safety during drives through flurries or while outrunning the ice rays of Mr. Freeze's cold gun. Each seasonal inspection pairs with a complimentary tire rotation to even out rubber wear and ensure that each car-foot gets its 15-minutes in the spotlight of following cars.

To start, spring for a classic: the Midas oil change. Midas will swap out old oil and quench your steed's thirst, matching the correct viscosity grade for your vehicle. Your service also includes a complimentary courtesy check of your engine air filter, brake fluid and brakes, power steering fluid, automatic transmission fluid, and coolant/antifreeze. They'll also check to see if your filter needs to be replaced (standard filter up to a $10 value included), as well as play down obvious indicators that the pumpkin-sticker-covered back-lefty is your favourite. Appointments are required and available on weekdays only.
