“My name is Marty and I had the pleasure of having this business work on my wife’s Kia. I called first thing in the morning on a Monday. They set me up for an appointment the following Thursday.

I called them later that same Monday afternoon, and asked if it was at all possible if they could look at the car the next day as the brakes were sounding bad. They asked me if it was possible to drop the car off the next day early in the morning.

I ended up dropping the car off that same Monday afternoon. I was provided with a rough estimate to have all the brakes and rotors done.

I received a call shortly before they closed on Monday and to my astonishment, the original estimate I was provided with was cut by more than half. I was told that I only required front brake work that the rear brakes were fine. I gave them the go ahead.

My vehicle was ready to go early the next day Tuesday morning. I can’t say enough About the professionalism of this business; A very rare find these days. I wouldn’t hesitate for one moment to recommend them to all my family and friends. I’ll definitely be back the next time I need any automotive service. Thank you very much for the great service.

Marty.”

“Highly recommend Roy's, called him after my snowblower broke down ,recently moved to Stratford and I had no idea how I was going to get it fixed I'm a senior and shoveling snow can be difficult. His son Tim picked up the machine in the middle of a storm and I had no idea when it would be fixed being it was New Year's Eve. Had a knock at the door about 9pm on New Year's Eve with the machine FIXED Roy and family are truly amazing . Happy New Year, I know my Year has started off great. Thanks Roy”

Common Causes of Auto Engine Problems

Neglected oil changes causing internal sludge buildup and bearing wear
Overheating due to coolant leaks, failed thermostats, or water pump failure
Worn or fouled spark plugs causing misfires and poor combustion
Timing belt or chain failure leading to catastrophic valve damage
Carbon buildup on intake valves reducing airflow and performance
Failing head gaskets allowing coolant and oil to mix internally

Critical Signs Your Auto Engine Needs Repair

Check Engine light is on or flashing on the dashboard
Engine is knocking, pinging, or making metallic rattling sounds
Significant loss of power during acceleration or climbing hills
Excessive white, blue, or black smoke from the exhaust tailpipe
Visible oil or coolant leaks pooling under the vehicle

Engine Repair Tips

Never ignore a flashing Check Engine light—it indicates active damage to the catalytic converter or engine internals
Follow the manufacturer's timing belt replacement interval exactly (usually 100,000 to 160,000 km)
Use the correct grade of engine oil specified in your owner's manual
Monitor your temperature gauge regularly, especially in heavy summer traffic
Address small oil leaks before they become major engine failures
Get a compression test done if your engine has over 200,000 km to assess internal wear

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does engine repair cost in Stratford? +
Minor repairs like spark plugs or sensors cost $150-$500. Head gasket replacement runs $1,500-$3,000. A complete engine rebuild costs $3,000-$6,000+, while a replacement engine with installation ranges from $4,000-$8,000+.
Is it worth rebuilding an engine vs. replacing it? +
If the block and heads are in good condition, a rebuild is often more cost-effective and can result in a like-new engine. If there's severe damage (cracked block, spun bearings), a remanufactured replacement may be more practical.
How long does an engine rebuild take? +
A complete engine rebuild typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, depending on parts availability, machining requirements, and the shop's workload.
What causes a head gasket to fail? +
The most common cause is engine overheating. When the engine exceeds its designed temperature, the head gasket material warps and fails, allowing coolant and oil to mix or leak externally.
