Hey neighbors — quick heads up from us at Al’s.

Our office manager, Cali, who a lot of you may have already spoken to, recently had throat surgery and is having some trouble talking while she heals (understandably).

So for the time being, we’re asking that all service requests come through text, email, or DM instead of phone calls.

We’re still here, still working, and still taking care of you—just doing things a little more quietly for now.

You can reach us at 815-503-0270 (text) or [email protected], or shoot us a message here.

We really appreciate your patience and kindness while she recovers.

Our physical location is closed today while we’re out running mobile calls.

We are already fully booked and not taking any additional calls at this time. If anything opens up, we’ll post an update.

If you missed today, feel free to reach out and we’ll get you scheduled for the next available opening.

Happy Easter from your friends at Al’s 🐰🌷

If your check engine light has been on longer than the holiday decorations… it might be time to get it checked out.

And if your brakes are making noise on the way to brunch, that’s your car asking for attention—not just being dramatic.

We keep things simple:
If it’s nothing serious, we’ll tell you.
If it needs attention, we’ll show you why.

Enjoy the day, eat the candy, spend time with your people—and if your car starts acting up after, we’ve got you covered.
