About Us
Established in 1988.
Nancy has been working on cars since the 1970s, opening her first business, Labyris Auto Repair in San Francisco in 1978. Moving to the East Bay, Nancy opened Grandma's Garage in 1988 (the name honors her grandmother who raised her). Nancy, though retired from ownership of the shop, still comes in when not teaching Automotive Technology at Contra Costa Community College or playing tennis. She has passed on her knowledge and ownership of the garage to Phoebe.
Meet the Business Owner
Phoebe has always enjoyed working with tools and solving problems. She has been trained by Nancy to gradually take over all of the technical work and ownership of Grandma's Garage. Phoebe embraces new technology with enthusiasm, and is very comfortable working with all the computer systems in your car.
