The new exterior is really starting to come together, and we are LOVING how it looks! Our contractor is doing an amazing job, and what a difference already!

A huge thank you to everyone for being patient with the mess while the work continues—and, as always, for supporting our family-owned shop.

🎉 Help us wish Nick a very Happy Birthday today! 🎉

If you haven’t met him yet, we’d also like to officially introduce one of the newer faces here at Northern Baer Auto Repair!

Nick joined our team a couple of months ago, stepping in after his sister Cassie moved on to her next adventure. He’s settled right in and has been a great addition to the Northern Baer crew.

So if you stop into the shop today, be sure to give Nick a hard time… we mean, wish him a Happy Birthday! 🤣

Happy Birthday, Nick! We’re glad to have you as part of the team!

🚧 PARDON OUR MESS… WE’RE GETTING A FACELIFT! 🔨

Apparently, there wasn’t quite enough construction happening around Ga***rd already… so we decided to add a little of our own!

We are getting some much-needed upgrades to the front and side of the building, and we’re pretty excited to see it all come together!

We’re still OPEN and ready to keep you on the road while the work is being done. Just pardon the mess, use a little extra caution around the building, and watch for construction areas when stopping in.

We can’t wait to show you the finished product!

There’s a lot of road construction happening around Ga***rd right now, including the roundabout project at Dickerson, Milbocker & McCoy Roads.

If you’re heading our way, please give yourself a little extra time, watch for detours and construction signs, and plan your route accordingly.

We appreciate everyone navigating the construction to get to us!

Starting September 8, preparations will begin for the diverging diamond interchange at I-75/M-32 in Ga***rd.
