About Graves Automotive

Full service auto and diesel repair.

Located at 44 Blue Cat Ln, Calera, AL 35040, Graves Automotive operates as an auto repair shop serving Calera in Alabama. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

Auto repair in the United States is split between independent shops, dealership service departments and national chains. Independents handle most routine work (oil changes, brakes, tune-ups, check-engine diagnostics) at lower labor rates and often specialize in one make or in imports; dealers keep factory tools, software and warranty authority; chains sell speed and standard pricing on maintenance items. Most shops charge a diagnostic fee, credited toward the repair if you go ahead, and quote parts and labor separately. Certification matters: look for ASE-certified technicians and, in many states, a state repair license posted at the counter. Written estimates are required by law in most states before work begins, and you are entitled to your old parts if you ask.

Hours are published for 5 days a week. On most of those days it is open 7:30 am–5 pm. Note that it does not open on Saturday, Sunday. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (205) 668-6261. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is gravesautomotive.net, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 99 reviews, which is a strong result for an auto repair shop in Calera and suggests consistent service.

Calera is in Alabama, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Calera follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Had my car serviced here, oil change, rotors and tires rotated. Also had door lock actuators installed on my Lexus SUV. Appreciate the friendly customer service and knowledgeable mechanics. No extras added, no upselling things I didn’t need! Just great, honest, friendly service.

My husband and I were camped at Oak Mountain State Park on our way home to Texas from a 5 week trip. He was checking things out and discovered that we had a broken leaf spring and the opposite one was flat from taking on the additional weight. Graves was advertised in the campground brochure and an early morning phone call to Lyle proved to be a great thing. He didn't have anyone to send out, but asked us to drive to his shop where he had the springs that we needed. His crew took care of the work and we were on our way - later than we wanted to be - but on the same day! We highly recommend Graves Automotive!

EXCELLENCE!! If you need a trusted mechanic these are definitely the guys to take your car to. I’ve had a hard time trusting car mechanics in the past, but these guys know how to be trustworthy and reasonable on pricing. They fixed my problem and made me feel like I could trust them to take it back if I need them again. That means a lot in this day and age of cars😁 thank you so much!!!

Had my class A towed to this shop because my coach had no power to the dash and would not crank. ( The 3rd shop I had to have towed to) The other 2 shops, Freightliner of Birmingham, and Conti services, could not fix the problem and charged me $$$$$$ to basically do nothing for my problem. 15 minutes after arrival Malcomb had my coach running....... After 1 day he found the problem and had it repaired. These people that work there are very nice, reasonable, knowledgeable. To bad for me I didn't go there FIRST!!! I would recommend for ANYONE that has an RV related issue to give them a try. Thanks Malcolm, Lyle, and the whole team!!!!

After arriving in the Birmingham are we realized one of the wheels was smoking on our travel trailer. Not feeling safe to drive it anywhere we called several mobile RV techs. No one could help us. Then we found Graves and we are so glad we did. From the first conversation with Lyle we had a great experience. They came out the same day and diagnosed the bearings had disintegrated. They thought they needed to replace the axle but they figured out a way to repair it, saving us potentially thousands of dollars. Lyle ordered a part and two days later they came out, repaired it, and now we are back on the road. We are so grateful we called Graves. They are A+++, honest, fair and responsive. If you are in the Birmingham area and need diesel, auto or RV service, save time and call Graves first.
