A Kensington Auto Repair Shop

A mechanic's shop where you can get an honest and knowledgeable assessment of what your car needs to keep it running well. Gary will give you a realistic plan for what needs to be done, as well as an idea of what can reasonably be deferred for the next time. His prices are fair, and Allbrand is on the #5 Ride-On bus line.

We have been taking our cars to Allbrand for years. Gary, Debbie, and Brian are the best... As Gary says, they do take care of cars, but they take care of people first. That's why we love them. They are honest as the day is long, pleasant, and thorough. We love them.

These guys are great! Honest, reasonable prices, excellent work. So grateful to have found mechanics I can trust!

Thank you so much for fitting me in yesterday last minute.

I have been going to Allbrand for over 18 years it is a family owned and operated place that is honest never cheat you and makes you feel like part of the family. Gary always let you know ahead of time what needs to be done and what the cost will be and he's honest enough to let you know what needs to be done first and what can wait. I hear my friends complain all the time about unnecessary work done on their vehicles. Good maintenance keeps your car running.

I have never been disappointed in the quality of service and quality of customer care. The team at Allbrand is an absolute delight to work with. I heartily recommend them to any one looking for reliable and exceptional service.

Thank you! The problem was clearly described. The costs were clear and also explained. The work was completed on time and without issues. I couldn't ask for more.

Everyone is very, very professional and friendly. The workmanship is excellence.

Gary and Brian could not have been more pleasant or professional during my visit. I was in the area for a funeral and just as I was about to reach my destination a coolant hose burst. After the event, I called AAA and was towed to Allbrand Auto. They confirmed the issue, ordered a few parts and had me back on the road within an hour. Gary even offered me alternate directions to avoid the awful DC traffic. If I lived in the area, there is no doubt that this would be the shop that would continue to get my business.

Wow . What a surprise . I have worked a few miles away for 16 years and didn't know that a gem was under my nose. Great service and the pricing was 20-25% less than some repair places that are less than a 1/2 mile away . It's worth the trip from anywhere in the DMV. Metro isn't far away. Also they share space with a used auto place that has some really clean well priced luxury cars.
