Comprehensive Radiator & Cooling System Services

Your vehicle’s cooling system is a complex network designed to manage engine temperature. We offer a full suite of services to keep it running flawlessly, preventing the severe engine damage that comes from chronic overheating.


Coolant Flush Service

Over time, coolant breaks down and becomes contaminated. We perform a complete system flush, removing old fluid and debris to prevent corrosion and ensure efficient heat transfer.


Radiator Leak Repair & Replacement

Whether it's a small leak from a cracked tank or a damaged core, our technicians can pinpoint the issue. We repair minor leaks when possible and perform full radiator replacements with quality parts when necessary.


Cooling System Diagnostics

Overheating can have several causes. We use advanced diagnostic tools to accurately identify the root of the problem, whether it's a faulty thermostat, a failing water pump, or a clogged radiator.



Thermostat & Hose Replacement

A stuck thermostat is a common culprit for overheating. We test and replace thermostats and inspect all cooling hoses for cracks, bulges, or soft spots that could lead to a breakdown.

Once we identify the issue, we provide a detailed explanation and a precise, upfront quote for the repair. We never recommend work you don’t need.

Common Signs You Need Radiator Service

Don't ignore the warning signs. Addressing a minor issue now can save you from a costly engine repair later.


  • Engine Overheating: The most obvious sign. If your temperature gauge is consistently high, pull over safely and call for assistance.
  • Coolant Leaks: Look for puddles of green, orange, or pink fluid under your car when it's parked.
  • Discolored or Low Coolant: Check your coolant reservoir. If the fluid is rusty, has particles in it, or is consistently low, your system needs attention.
  • Sweet Smell: A distinctive sweet smell from your engine bay often indicates a coolant leak.

He did a very good job, after he fixed it, I drove my Jeep and I felt like same feeling when I drove it the first time I bought the Jeep... I don't mind driving an hour to Canton, to get my Jeep taken care of in good hands. Thank you Fred!"
