Dirty Wrenches isn't a chain, a franchise or a dealership alternative dressed up in expensive coffee. It's three mechanics who got tired of doing this the wrong way.
Travis opened the doors in 2022 out of his own garage with one bay and one car belonging to a friend who didn't trust the dealer. A few years and several hundred cars later between us all, the formula hasn't changed: imports are our specialty, but we still work on everything else — domestics, trucks, motorcycles — because no job is too small.
You'll always speak to the person doing the work. The owner wrenches. The drivetrain specialist is across the floor, not in a different time zone. The performance tuner is the same person who'll torque your wheel nuts.
That means we book a couple of weeks out — and we're fine with that. So is everyone who's been here before.
Small shop, big bench. Between the three of us, Dirty Wrenches has brought in decades of combined experience, the help and second opinions that come with working shoulder-to-shoulder, and the kind of model-specific knowledge that usually only lives inside a dealer service department. Small doesn't mean light on expertise — it means none of it gets watered down before it reaches your car.
Travis owns the shop and runs day-to-day operations — 20+ years as a lead mechanic across corporate and private shops, with deep import experience. Devon and Jess are recent additions to the crew — both seasoned techs hand-picked to keep the standard up as we grow.
Runs the shop and day-to-day operations. Two decades as a lead mechanic across corporate dealerships and private shops, with deep import experience — he's the one who's seen how it's done right and wrong, and built Dirty Wrenches around the right way.
Mechatronic surgery, clutch packs and the dark art of making German gearboxes behave.
WRX/STI builds, dyno calibrations and the only person here who can spell ‘rotational mass.’
