Auto Repair in Silver Plume & Surrounding Areas — Answers Before Repairs

Clear Creek County drivers from Georgetown to Idaho Springs bring their cars and trucks up the valley for a diagnosis they can follow.

One Shop for the Upper Clear Creek Valley

Auto Repair Silver Plume serves the string of towns along I-70 between the Eisenhower Tunnel and Idaho Springs. Georgetown is a couple of minutes away, Empire and Dumont a short run down the valley, and Lawson, Downieville and Idaho Springs an easy drive for a planned drop-off. Every customer gets the same thing: a free inspection, a plain explanation and a repair only after you approve it.

How the Valley Uses the Shop

  • On the way down, on the way back

    Most customers drop the car as they head down I-70 in the morning and collect it on the way home, so the repair costs no extra trip.

  • Booked on weekdays

    We book inspections and repairs on weekdays and give you a realistic ready time when the work is approved.

  • A single number for the corridor

    Georgetown, Empire or Idaho Springs, you reach the same technician at (303) 479-3768.

Planning a Visit From Down the Valley

Call before you drive up. A two-minute conversation usually tells us whether the inspection and the repair can happen in one visit, and if you approve a common repair on the phone we can have the parts waiting.

Everything happens in the shop, with the lift, scan tools and diesel equipment the job needs. That keeps the diagnosis accurate and the price honest, because we are quoting the job done properly rather than improvised.

Driving Up From Another Clear Creek Town?

Call first and we will set up a free inspection that makes the trip worth it.
