Exhaust Specialties & Brakes

These guys are awesome. I worked on my car and couldn’t get a rusted bolt off of the suspension, they put the car on a lift and used a torch to heat the rusted bolt off free of charge! Thanks for saving me a lot of time and frustration. I will definitely be coming back for any exhaust needs!

Awesome service! Just had them install a custom cat-​back exhaust system! The sound is perfect for my Tundra. Awesome customer service. I work in the area and they even picked up and dropped me off for the install! Highly recommend their service!

Had to replace 2 catalytic converters and got a decent price and my car back the same day. I shopped around and these guys had the best price for what I wanted. Would def recommend!

These guys are great! We needed a new muffler (and a few other parts) for our Civic and they were able to get us in and out in 45 minutes.
They are open on Saturday which is very convenient since we both work M-​F and use the car to commute during the week.
Honest mechanics are hard to come by. Free estimates btw. Highly recommend them for any exhaust, welding, or brake work you need.

i was referred to this place by broadway imports, and i had a great experience… donny laid out my options, and prices, and a few hrs later the tailpipe, muffler, and exhaust were fixed… very friendly, professional, and quick… thx!

Prompt and very reasonably priced service — Dave the manager took great care of my car and was very friendly and knowledgeable.

Set up an appointment to get a muffler removed out of my exhaust because it was completely quiet. The guys there were cool and did good work. It would seem trivial but they were very mindful about the placement of the exhaust tip within the bumper cutout. Its one of those things that could make or break such a modification. I will be going to them for further exhaust work and recommending them to friends.

I have known about Exhaust Specialties for years. My father has used them and I recently had a need to take my Land Cruiser down to them to fix and leak off of the header. I called on the phone, spoke to Bart and made arrangements for me to come down and for him to look at it. After review, Bart concluded that he would need it for some time to rework the down pipe to clear some things better. I made an appointment for later in the week. Dropped it off on my appointment date and wanted to add a muffler and change the exhaust exit to better fit the flow of the engine need. Bart was more than accomodating and quoted me a price. I came back later in the day, and Bart was working on the Land Cruiser. He had gotten a couple of other vehicles in, but was very nice and I was very understanding. It happens. But the wait was worth it. The quality and the craftsmanship of Barts work is amazing. Yeah, it may be exhaust, but seriously, it’s a work of art with all the bending and measuring. Bart is a pro and is very good at what he does. He is an artist. The quote came right in. And this is even better. The next day I noticed an exhaust leak. So I called Bart. He said come right down. I did and he listened. It happened to be the gasket on the other side of the motor. It was an hour before closing on Saturday. He got me right in, and instead of just repairing a bad job another shop had performed, he completely replaced the pipe matching his other side. He stayed past closing to finish it up, because he didn’t want to do a bad job. I like Bart. He takes pride in his work. That’s tough to find these days.
In closing. I highly recommend taking any vehicle to Bart. Honest and good.
Thanks Bart!

Awesome! It seems so rare nowadays to be able to drive right in at the appointed time and get a quick and free diagnosis — then on top of that a quick repair (instead of a replacement) and all at a fair price.
I brought my Jeep Wrangler in on a Saturday. I called earlier that morning and found that noon would be good for me to come in. I drove in, and did not have to wait at all. They lifted my car, put the stethoscope to it, found and diagnosed the problem, and then proceeded to patch it all in under what seemed 15 minutes and $ 20 bucks.
The way my car sounded, I thought the diagnosis was going to be to replace the manifold. Which I have already replaced once. I had been figuring and frankly worring about when I would be able to leave it at some shop. Nope — just a minor crack and a quick weld fixed. What a relief!
I had my car in another shop a month or two earlier for some other work and they had no idea where the noise was coming from. Although, it was not quite as loud at that point. But the other repair shop smelled exhaust and based on that did some block test or something and that alone cost be over $ 100 and was not part of the cause. So the other shop I went to was totally misdiagnosed or went down the wrong trail which cost me extra bucks.
Exhaust Specialties & Brakes found and repaired the problem quickly and at a low price. They also let me know more about my replaced manifold. I also asked about shocks and how mine where. The shocks where still OK. They could replace them and they suggested I could save buck if I bought the shocks my self and they would do the install. I really appreciated the discussion, information, and they treated me great. It is an experience like this that builds trust. They earned my trust and I would definitely go back to this shop.

Was quoted $ 100 to replace damage to the downpipe on the pickup and also replace gaskets. It seemed like a really good deal at the time got the work done and gaskets were not replaced and exhaust is leaking from the gaskets now. Using exhaust gasket sealant is not replacing the gasket. Thanks for nothing guys. Based on our conversation you guys stated you would replace gaskets as well as repair damage on the downpipe. Now I will have to tear it apart again and redo your work.
