Services & Pricing

Questions about our radiator and cooling system services.

How much does radiator repair cost? +
Repair costs vary depending on the issue. Simple leak repairs start around $150, while more extensive repairs may cost $250-400. We'll always provide a detailed written estimate before starting any work. In many cases, repair is significantly cheaper than replacement.
How much does radiator replacement cost? +
Complete radiator replacement typically ranges from $350-600+, depending on the vehicle make and model, and whether you choose OEM or aftermarket parts. This includes parts, labor, coolant, and system testing.
How often should I flush my cooling system? +
Most manufacturers recommend cooling system service every 24-36 months or 30,000 miles. However, if you frequently tow, drive in extreme conditions, or have high mileage, more frequent service may be beneficial. Our $89 cooling system service includes flush, pressure test, and coolant refill.
Can you repair any radiator? +
Many radiators can be repaired, but not all. Small pinhole leaks, minor tank damage, and corroded fittings are often repairable. However, radiators with extensive corrosion, multiple leaks, or damaged cores typically need replacement. We'll inspect yours and recommend the most economical solution.
Do you work on all vehicle types? +
Yes! We service passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks, and vans. Our technicians have experience with domestic and import vehicles from all major manufacturers. For heavy-duty commercial vehicles, please call to confirm we can accommodate your needs.

Emergency Situations

Having cooling system issues? Here's what you need to know:

My car is overheating. What should I do? +
Pull over immediately and turn off the engine. Do not continue driving - this can cause severe engine damage. Let the engine cool down, then call us at (678) 752-0876 for emergency assistance. We may be able to get you in the same day.
I see steam from the hood. Is this serious? +
Yes, steam from the hood indicates serious overheating. This is an emergency situation. Pull over safely, turn off the engine, and call us immediately. Continuing to drive can result in catastrophic engine damage requiring complete engine replacement.
I have a coolant leak. Can I still drive? +
Small leaks can sometimes be monitored, but we recommend having it checked ASAP. Large leaks or any leak causing low coolant levels should be addressed before driving. Watch your temperature gauge and have the leak fixed as soon as possible.
