Since 2020

Started by Mike and Amy during the pandemic, still just the two of them.

We come to you

Home, workplace or roadside — the shop travels to where the car is.

Phone open 24/7

Breakdowns do not keep business hours, so the line stays open.

What we fix

Nine services, all of them on site

Batteries, brakes, diagnostics and routine maintenance are the calls we get most. If your problem is not listed, call and describe it — we will tell you straight whether we can handle it where the car sits.

Won't start / won't run

The calls that leave you stuck where you are.

  • Battery & charging systems

    Testing batteries, alternators and charging faults, and replacing what has failed on site.

  • Engine diagnostics

    Reading codes and testing the actual cause behind a warning light, rough idle or stall.

  • Electrical

    Wiring, fuses, starters, sensors, lights and the odd faults that come with them.

Safety & handling

Anything that changes how the car stops or steers.

  • Brakes

    Pads, rotors and brake complaints — noise, pulling, a soft pedal or a warning light.

  • Steering & suspension

    Shocks, struts, bushings, tie rods and the clunks, wander or uneven wear they cause.

  • Transmission

    Shifting complaints, leaks and service work — we look first, then tell you what it needs.

Maintenance & comfort

Routine work done in your driveway instead of a waiting room.

  • Oil changes

    Oil and filter service where the car already sits — at home or at your workplace.

  • Air & cabin filters

    Engine air and cabin filter replacement — quick work, noticeable difference inside.

  • Air conditioning

    A/C that blows warm, cycles oddly or smells off — checked and serviced on site.

Customer stories

What people called us for

Summaries of what customers told us, written in our words rather than presented as word-for-word quotes.

Another shop pointed at a timing chain and quoted a four-figure repair. Mike found a much smaller problem quickly and fixed it.

Lamond F.Second opinion, engine

Called with a nail in her tire while pregnant and with her toddler in the car. Help arrived quickly and she felt the price was fair.

Dinara A.Flat tire, roadside

Stranded seven hours into a solo road trip. She was back on the road shortly after calling.

Lindsay P.Breakdown, out of town

Her bumper was repositioned so the car was driveable again, and she said she would call back next time.

Martha H.Body damage, driveway

Got a car doing something strange?

Describe it on the phone and we will tell you what we think before anyone drives anywhere.

Our story

Two people, one truck, since 2020

Mike and Amy started Minuteman in the middle of the pandemic for a simple reason: nobody wanted to sit in a shop waiting room to get a car fixed. So they brought the shop to the driveway instead.

It is still just the two of them. Mike does the work, Amy answers the phone, and the person you talk to is the person who shows up. Mike reads and replies to every review himself.

They run Minuteman as a mission-minded operation: what they make beyond keeping the truck running goes back into community outreach and partner churches around Lexington.

FAQ

Questions before you call

Where do you work on cars?

Wherever the car already is — your driveway, an apartment lot, your workplace, or the side of the road. We serve Lexington, NC and the surrounding area. If you are not sure you are in range, call and ask.

How do I request help?

Call or text (336) 995-3214. Mike or Amy will pick up and talk through what is happening with the car and when we can get to you.

What information should I have ready?

Year, make and model, what the car is doing (sounds, warning lights, whether it starts), and the exact address or cross streets where it is parked. Photos by text help too.

How much will the repair cost?

It depends on what we find. We diagnose first, then give you a price before any work begins. Nothing gets done without your go-ahead.

Are you really available 24/7?

The phone is open any hour, day or night. Call to confirm availability for your situation and location — we will tell you honestly when we can be there.

Can you fix something not on your services list?

Call and describe it. We will tell you straight whether it is something we can handle on site or whether it needs a shop.

Tell us what the car
is doing.

Call or text and you will reach Mike or Amy. We will talk through the symptoms, confirm when we can get to you, and price the work once we have looked at it.
