How it works
Three texts and you're back on the road
- 1
Tell Kelly what's going on
Year, make and model, what it's doing, and where it's parked. Use the form below or just call.
- 2
Get a time and a price
Kelly confirms when he can come out and what the job should cost before he starts.
- 3
He fixes it where it sits
Home, work, a parking lot. Customers say he figures out what's actually wrong, and some didn't even need to be there.
Request a mobile repair
Send Kelly everything he needs in one go
Four quick steps. At the end your phone opens a ready-to-send text (or email) to Kelly. Nothing is sent until you hit send.
Instant estimate
Ballpark it in ten seconds
Typical parts-and-labor ranges for common jobs at independent shops in Idaho on a midsize car. A rough estimate only. Kelly confirms the final price for your exact vehicle before any work starts.
Rough estimate$145 – $380
Battery replacement: Kelly's own starting price, from $389 on a midsize car (never lower; bigger vehicles can run higher). Other ranges: MechanicRank's published repair-cost guides for Boise, ID (independent shop, midsize car baseline), not 208 Mobile Mechanic's prices. Vehicle type nudges the range; it isn't a quote.

Questions
Good to know
Do you really come to me?
Yes. That's the whole idea. Kelly brings the tools to your home, your work lot or wherever the car is sitting in the Boise area.
What can't be done in a driveway?
Jobs that need a lift or heavy shop equipment. Tell Kelly what's going on and he'll say upfront whether it's a mobile job. If the car needs to be moved, Kelly does towing too.
Do you do towing, trailers or car keys?
Yes. Besides mobile repair, Kelly does towing and trailer services, and he can cut and program car keys. Text the year, make and model to check what he can do for yours.
Is it true Kelly won an award?
Yes. 208 Mobile Mechanic Boise is a 2024 Quality Business Awards winner, Best Mechanic in Boise: recognized as the leading Mechanic in Boise, with a quality score of 95%+, representing the top 1% of American businesses.
How do I pay?
Credit and debit cards are accepted.

Not always. One customer wrote that they "didn't even have to be there." Work it out with Kelly when you book.
What are the hours?
Monday to Saturday, 8 AM to 6 PM (Thursday until 5 PM). Closed Sunday.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the car and the part. Try the instant estimate for a ballpark, then Kelly confirms the real price before he starts.
