What happens when your transit van throws a tire off while going down the big scary I10? You call us to come rescue you of course! Anyways, this lady had her tire fly off due to a previous shop not tightening her lug nuts all the way. She called us and after all the wheel studs, lug nuts and rotor had to be replaced she's now back on the road returning to her adventure!

Loyalty goes both ways. When a repeat customer called us with alternator problems almost 3 hours away, we did the only thing we could do. We loaded everything up and started driving to Montgomery, Al. Just a short trip and about and hour of labor and he's all set ready to go with a new alternator , tensioner pulley, and a battery! We try our best to stay true to our customers plus we needed a long drive anywaysπŸ˜…. Pm us for any needs!

🚨 BEFORE YOU CALL Thorn & Haul I Do It All … THERE’S SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW!🚨

THERE IS ONLY ONE CHRIS. πŸ”§πŸ€£

Seriously. Just ONE.

We are NOT a huge franchise.
We are NOT a big repair shop with 10 mechanics standing around waiting on the next vehicle.
We don't have multiple service bays, a fleet of technicians or a corporate office somewhere.

We are a VERY small, family-owned business β€” and Thorn & Haul I do it All is basically a ONE-MAN mechanic operation.

CHRIS is THE mechanic.πŸ”§

When you hire us, CHRIS is the one:

πŸ”§ Diagnosing your vehicle
πŸ”© Turning the wrenches
πŸš— Driving from customer to customer
πŸ› οΈ Crawling underneath vehicles
βš™οΈ Doing the repairs
🧰 Picking up parts when needed
πŸ₯΅ And doing all of it outside in this lovely Florida weather πŸ˜‚

Meanwhile, Kristina handles the messages, quotes, scheduling, parts, customers, paperwork, social media and occasionally has to remind Chris that he cannot physically be in Crestview, Niceville, AND defuniak at the same time. 🀣🀣

Trust us… we've tried.

So when our schedule gets backed up or we can't get to your vehicle immediately, we aren't ignoring you and we aren't sitting around!

Chances are Chris is underneath somebody else's vehicle thinking, β€œWell… THAT bolt wasn't supposed to break.β€πŸ˜‚πŸ”§

And that's something we actually want people to understand about us.

When you choose Thorn & Haul I do it all, you're not sending your money to some giant corporation.

You're supporting ONE hardworking mechanic, his family, and a small local business that genuinely appreciates EVERY SINGLE CUSTOMER who chooses us.❀️

And don't let β€œone-man operation” fool you…

Chris has 7+ YEARS of hands-on automotive experience, and we take on everything from basic repairs to jobs that make you look at the vehicle and say…

β€œYeahhhh… I'm calling Chris.” πŸ˜‚

πŸ›‘ Brakes & Rotors
πŸ”‹ Alternators & Starters
❄️ A/C Repairs
🌑️ Cooling Systems
πŸ”§ Spark Plugs, Coils & Sensors
βš™οΈ Suspension & Steering
🚘 Clutches & Transmission Work
πŸ› οΈ Engine Repairs & Replacements
πŸ’» Diagnostics
βž• And MUCH more!

πŸš— AND WE COME TO YOU!

Your driveway. Your home. Your workplace. Wherever the vehicle is β€” we bring the mechanic to you.

πŸ”§ 7+ Years Experience
❀️ Small Family-Owned Business
πŸ‘¨β€πŸ”§ ONE-MAN Mechanic Operation
πŸ’³ Cash & Cash app accepted
πŸ“† Weekends & Holidays Available
πŸ“ Crestview & Surrounding Areas

Already bought your own parts? That's okay too! We offer labor-only installation on many repairs.

So please be patient with our little operation. ❀️ We may not be the biggest automotive business in town…

BUT WE WORK OUR BUTTS OFF FOR THE CUSTOMERS WE HAVE.*πŸ”§πŸ’ͺ

No corporate office.
No giant staff.
No franchise.

Just real people, real repairs, one hardworking mechanic and a family trying to build something we're proud of. ❀️

πŸ“² MESSAGE Thorn & Haul I Do it All FOR A QUOTE OR TO GET ON THE SCHEDULE!

πŸ”§ PROFESSIONAL RESULTS WITHOUT THE PROFESSIONAL PRICE TAG.

And remember…

THERE'S ONLY ONE CHRIS, Y'ALL. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ Give the man a minute!
