I personally have had Black Diamond mechanical and welding work on a few of my vehicles over the last year. One time was because my Air conditioning wasnt working and another time for a rear diff leaking and both times, they were quick to diagnose the issues and fix it while keeping me informed during the process. I was booked in and out with in a day or two. I find all the mechanics I dealt with to be very kind and knowledgeable. I highly recommended them!
