At Allen's Automotive Service in Metairie, we've built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time. As a family-owned shop rooted in the Metairie community, we believe in treating every vehicle as if it were our own.
We're on Utica Street, between Clearview Parkway and Transcontinental Drive, just off Veterans and I-10. Bring us anything from an oil change or a squealing brake to an A/C that's blowing warm, a check engine light, or engine and transmission work. We work on cars for drivers all over Metairie, plus Kenner, River Ridge and New Orleans.
Every job starts with a free estimate. We look the car over, tell you what we found, and you decide what gets done.
We also offer a 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty on qualifying repairs, because we stand behind every job we do.
