About Pro Care Repair

An independent repair shop built on straightforward communication, proper training, and a genuine interest in keeping vehicles running reliably.

How Pro Care Repair Came to Be

Pro Care Repair was founded by François Lemieux after nearly two decades working in dealership and independent shops across the Montreal area. What drove him to open his own operation was a gap in how shops often communicated with their customers.

Too frequently, customers left with a repaired vehicle but without a real understanding of what had been done, why it was needed, or what to expect from the work. François believed that transparency wasn't just good practice — it was the foundation of a shop's long-term reputation.

Pro Care Repair opened at 3300 Valiquette St in Montreal with a small team, a clear service philosophy, and a commitment to treating every vehicle and every customer with the same level of attention. The shop has grown steadily since, built almost entirely on referrals and repeat business.

Today the team services personal vehicles, small fleets, and commercial vans. The approach remains unchanged: diagnose accurately, explain clearly, and do the work properly the first time.

Inside the Pro Care Repair workshop

Workshop Philosophy

Diagnose First

We identify the actual cause before recommending any repair. Replacing parts based on guesswork costs more and rarely solves the underlying issue reliably.

Explain Clearly

Every finding is communicated in plain language. We don't use technical complexity as a way to avoid answering questions or justify work.

Safety First

Safety-critical work is never deferred without explicitly communicating the risk. Brakes, tires, and steering are treated with appropriate seriousness.

Environmental Care

Used oils, fluids, and parts are disposed of through certified recycling channels. We follow all applicable environmental regulations.
