Omg these guys are great!!! Our starter went out on our box truck at a AMAZON location and this company sent techs out immediately. We are from Richmond so getting back home was crucial and in a timely manner. Antwaun was really professional and I now have him locked in in case of emergencies in the tidewater area.PS they are very affordable compared to other other shops we googled. And definitely more professional.Thank you guys again.

Top Notch Commercial Service did roof work on our Class C RV. Antwan and Jason were wonderful to work with. They kept us updated on the repairs and always gave honest estimates of the cost. Their shop was easy to find, and our RV was safely stored inside their garage while it was being repaired. When they finished the roof work, they offered for us to climb up and view their work. Very friendly staff, professional mechanics. Highly recommended.

Top Notch Mechanical Repair is an absolute lifesaver for fleet managers! I am incredibly thankful they handle federal inspections for our fleet of semi-trucks. Their location in Norfolk is perfect, being just minutes away from the Virginia ports. It makes routine compliance and drop-offs completely seamless. High-quality work and unbeatable convenience!

I cannot recommend Top Notch Commercial Service enough! I had a brake issue that left me completely stranded, and they completely saved the day. I absolutely love that they have their own towing service—it took so much stress out of a terrifying situation. The customer service was absolutely top-notch from start to finish. They got my truck towed quickly, diagnosed the problem, and had me back on the road safely in no time. Fast, honest, and reliable. Thank you to the whole team for taking such great care of me!

As a female owner-operator, I am incredibly thankful for Top Notch Commercial Repair here in Norfolk. It can be hard to find a truck repair shop that doesn't try to take advantage of you, but they truly prioritize good workmanship while keeping costs low. The staff has always been completely spot-on. I personally hope they expand soon so they can handle even more of my business!
