Highlands East Automotive Machine Shop

They did an excellent job resurfacing my V8 heads. Very professional and polite people. I appreciate how they payed close attention to all the details and certain preferences I had mentioned. Very satisfied with the results.

Phil is a superb machinist and very diligent in his work. He takes the time to talk with you about your engine goals and explain costs / processes. Great follow-through and communication throughout. Very friendly. His assistant / other machinist is also very knowledgeable and helpful Complete head rebuild turnaround was about 2 weeks which is pretty quick all things considered. Update: Would like to note that Phil means what he says when he says "I treat everyone who walks in that door like they're my neighbor". There was a mistake made in my valve grind and he was nice enough to come out and double check my measurements, and then paid for any wasted parts to make things right. Real stand up guy, would highly recommend

The expertise and passion that comes from this shop is unbeatable. Phil is one of the most knowledgeable machinists I’ve talked with , I have talked to a few of shops in the area and he’s definitely running one of best shops. I brought in my crankshaft and he did an amazing job. He goes above and beyond to communicate with his customers, if I could give 10 stars I would I will continue to bring my machining work to him and will recommend him to anyone in the future.

Phil was very upfront and honest about all the work from the very start. Need the heads on my 3.0L V6 2003 ford Ranger re surfaced. He gave me a very good quote, and then set very clear expectations on the work, time frame, and extended quotes for any other issues that might come up during the process. There were quite a few things discovered that needed to be addressed, and Phil was very direct about my options. Not once did he push me to do anything and entirely left the decisions on how to proceed up to me. The costs were very reasonable, and after researching 5 other shops, I have no doubt that I made the right choice letting Phil do what he does best.

Best machine shop in renton and seattle, friendly and knowledgeable in whatever work is being ask.
