"I'm thrilled to have been referred to Hombaker. I moved to Streator from Chicago's NW suburbs two years ago, and have dealt with a couple other local mechanics since then that did not impress me. A local friend who has lived in Streator most of his life referred me to Hombaker. They went through everything carefully. The story with my Chevy pick up is that I bought it used ten years ago, and every time I get it serviced, it would run great for a little while and then the same old problem of running rough would come back. No one had gotten rid of it completely in all this time, and I tried a few mechanics who all had different diagnoses or solutions. Well, the mechanic at Hombaker inspected it and decided that what had been missing was good old fashioned TLC and labor to get all the various parts and surfaces machined to be perfectly smoothed, deep cleaned to remove caked-on gunk, etc. He took things apart individually and did what needed to be done from the beginning; apply elbow grease. Just hearing him explain it demonstrated how much he cares about getting the job done RIGHT. We're running like a champ now. On top of that, they wouldn't promise ahead of time they'd have time to get it done before the weekend when I wanted it...but they pushed hard and finished late on a Friday just to accomodate me! Then, I said terrific, I'll ride my bike over now. The kind woman on the phone said, "but it's raining! I can't let you do that. I'll send a guy over to your house to come get you." Think that's all?! Nope! She offers me a free hoodie! Hahaha, I say. No one ever has my size: XXL. She had several in my size AND they had XXXL's, too! They got you covered! I could just tell from the vibe in their office that they all like working together and that's always a great sign of a good, fair business. They will be getting all my business now."
