Do It Yourself Mechanics

Do It Yourself Mechanics in Sterling is a unique Loudoun automobile repair shop specifically focused on the do-it-yourselfer – i.e. those with auto mechanics interest or skills who don’t mind getting a little dirty. And that’s hard to do, really, given the extremely clean and well-organized environment of rental bays, lifts and automotive parts supply center. As the only do it yourself auto repair shop in Northern Virginia, short or long-term rental options are available from the casual, amateur oil-changer or weekend mechanic, to long-term, experienced auto mechanics delivering their own business services. Owner Ed Cove and his crew have quickly become thoroughly immersed in the Loudoun and Northern Virginia auto enthusiast community, holding events, training sessions onsite and keeping up with their rapidly-growing Facebook Loudoun auto repair community.
