  • Servicing, all makes and models

    Whatever you drive, we'll service it. Bring it in for the regular service and we'll keep it running right.

  • New car log book servicing

    We do log book servicing on new cars, so you can keep the book stamped at a local workshop.

  • Tyres supplied, balanced and fitted

    We supply the tyres, fit them and balance them. Call with the size or the car and we'll sort a set.

  • Brake repairs and replacement

    We repair and replace brakes on all makes and models, from a squeal to a full set.

  • Steering and suspension

    Steering and suspension work is a big part of what we do, including power steering, from a worn part to a full replacement.

  • Engine, gearbox and diff rebuilds

    When it's more than a service, we'll rebuild engines, gearboxes and diffs in the workshop.

  • Clutch repairs

    Slipping, dragging or a clutch that's had it: we'll diagnose it and repair it.

  • Older model cars

    Older model cars are one of our specialities. If yours has a few decades on it, give us a ring.

“Had a major issue with my vehicle whilst I was driving from Brisbane to FNQ. Called Sam & was booked in ASAP the service & constant communication was second to none. I can’t recommend the team at Sam’s garage highly enough they were able to get the problem rectified within 24hrs and get us on our way!! Great job & thanks again!”

Older model cars

Older cars are welcome at our Boyne Island workshop

Older model cars are one of our specialities. They need a mechanic who knows them, and parts that take a bit of finding. We're happy to do both.

We're car people ourselves. Even the work ute's purple.

What our customers say about Sam's Garage

  • “Broke down late in the arvo called Sam and he said if we could get the van to him he could look at it. Got towed there 15 min before closing he came straight out and looked at it and diagnosed the problem in 2 minutes. Went and ordered the part, personally picked up the part and fixed the van that afternoon even though they were closed. Cannot get any better service than what we received and very reasonably priced, very rare to find a mechanic who truly cares about there customers and goes above and beyond to help them out. Thank you Sam and the Team for keeping us on the road.”

  • “We had such a lovely experience with this garage! After we realized it was gonna be 4 or 5 hours until it was fixed one of the mechanics offered to drive us into town, so that we wouldn’t be waiting aimlessly around the garage. And then even offered to pick us back up from where we were!! The van drives soooo much better, and we are very thankful!!!”
