Sometimes when you are in dire straights you encounter a remarkable experience. We were recently driving back to Pennsylvania from Newark Airport and during a severe storm and ended up having blown out two tires and other damage. Never having been to this area of New Jersey and being stranded was distressing. After spending the night in town we were referred to Mr. Gelorminis automotive shop. Immediately we were made to feel comfortable and were put at ease. His kind and knowledgeable demeanor instilled confidence that we were going to be treated honestly and professionally. He generously allowed us to put our luggage in his office while he searched for the right tire. We had the opportunity to spend some time talking with him and learned of the history of his business and the area that he serves. Once all the repairs were done he provided transportation back to the car and checked that everything was in working order. I can highly recommend Gelorminis Automotive Service and if we lived there he would be the only person we would take our cars to. Allen and Mary Agnew

This would be my third positive experience with Mike and his shop. The first time I had a flat tire, and he was the closest shop i could get to. He plugged my tire on the spot and gave me a great deal. I actually didnt have my wallet with me and Mike even let me go said to come back whenever to pay for the work. The second time was due to another flat tire, he couldnt find anything wrong with the tire and suggested that ice and an open tire valve stem could have been the problem. He didnt charge me at all for this since there wasnt any work to be done. Recently, Ive had an overheating problem with the car. Its generally difficult to figure out what the exact problem is without getting into it and what decisions I should make, but Mike was able to lay out all the options, next steps, and provide examples from his years of experience. His consultative approach helped me make the best possible decision (which is typically hard to get from other mechanics). I highly recommend Gelormini Auto Repair.

Ive been living in New Providence since 2003. In that time, I have used most of the auto repair places in town...and, have no complaints about any of them. However, I have nothing but high praise for Gelormini. In a nutshell, this is a true, neighborhood auto repair shop. Theyll listen to you, do a proper diagnosis...then give you all of your options. They never try to push work on you that doesnt need to be done right then. After you decide on the scope of work, its done with great skill and expertise...for the price that was quoted. Gelormini also extends themselves for their clients, when something unexpected comes up; and, last-minute work is required. The people are terrific, its clean & tidy (for an auto place), and they live up to the expectations they set with their customers. Im 60, and have been to a LOT of mechanics (my dad was a master-mechanic). These days, I wont take my car anywhere else than Gelormini.

Fantastic Experience!!! Usually, I do most of the work on my car myself but I got a problem with my car that I didnt feel like diagnosing. I called several shops in the area and this was the only one that answered the phone. I talked to Mike and he said hell take a look at it. Next day I got a call from Mike and he said that I should replace the alternator and thought if I could do my brakes I shouldnt have a problem with replacing it myself. I asked him what I owe him and he said dont worry about it. So I took his advice and now my car is back on the road. I have never heard of a mechanic saying this is the problem and Id be better off doing it myself. What integrity! And to not charge me for his time?! Unheard of! Mike, when my clutch goes out, I know I can trust you with my car!

Mike and the staff at Gelorminis Auto Repair are professional, honest, and reliable. Mike always calls to consult with me before proceeding ahead with any work to my car. He is always willing to work with me especially when I have to take my car to the dealership from time to time. He compares what the dealership has found to what he has he found and always takes the time to sit down and explain everything very clearly. You can tell that he is not in it for the money but in it to make your car reliable and safe. They are a very knowledgeable shop and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a good mechanic/auto body shop. I have been going here for the past three years and will continue to do so.

Mike Gelormini is honest and trustworthy. He does the work you agree to correctly, and he does not try to sell you services you do not need. My experience with some of the dealers in the area is you cannot walk away for less than $1,000 - they always find "something" else in need of repair. If Mike says you need the service, you can trust him. And his prices are fair. Good guy, nice to deal with hard-working, honest, local businessman.

Ten years ago I found Gelormini through word of mouth. Now I recommend them to all my friends. It is a small town auto repair shop...Mike knows my name and my cars. I have had cars towed there, tires sent there, Mike has guided us when we were buying used cars for my teens...I can go on. Great service. I usually drop my car off the night before and pick up at my convenience the following day or night. Highly recommend.

I am a long time customer of Gelormini Auto because I appreciate Mikes honest decision making and being involved in the decision. I like to be an educated consumer and Mike gives me the customer service that I would not get somewhere else. To demonstrate, Mike was very gracious when I needed help with my Electric Car Conversion project. He extended his knowledge and was key in completing the project.

Gelorminis Auto Repair is the most exceptional auto repair I have ever encountered. Besides being honest and upfront, they are so informative and explain things to me in so much detail. Mike always goes out of his way for me and is always willing to help in anyway possible. I have been bringing my cars here for over 10 years and wouldnt want anyone else but them checking and repairing my cars.

After disappointing experiences with other local mechanics, I began using Gelormini Auto several years ago. I have always been 100% satisfied. Mike and his staff are conscientious, honest and reliable. Work is top quality, and repairs are done right the first time. If you believe in making informed, intelligent investments in your automobile maintenance and repair, go to Gelormini first!

A hidden gem located in New Providence, NJ, tucked away behind the Village Shopping Plaza. Mike and his staff are always friendly, informationiive and knowledgeable about the cars that they service. I have been doing business with Mike for 12 years and am never disappointed with the service. Your car is in good hands with Gelormini.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!! Fantastic customer service and extremely skilled technicians. As I read the reviews below, you will always be able to find somebody cheaper or find somebody who will tell you what you want to hear, but you will NOT find a more trust worthy and honest shop anywhere in our area. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
