About Oldham's

A St. Augustine shop. A family name. A standard we won't drop.

We've been fixing cars and trucks for folks in this town since 1985 — neighbors, repeat customers, and the kids of repeat customers.

Who We Are

Three generations in one garage.

Oldham's Auto Repair is a family-owned repair shop in St. Augustine, Florida. We handle mechanical work on most makes and models — no dealer pressure, no upsells you don't need, no excuses. If we can't fix it, we'll say so and point you toward someone who can.

Founder

Chuck Oldham

Founder · 1st Generation

Placeholder bio — Chuck opened the shop in 1985 with a single bay and a toolbox. He set the tone: honest work, explained plainly. Fill in a real paragraph here.

Management

Johnny Oldham

Manager · 2nd Generation

Placeholder bio — Johnny grew up in the shop, helped expand service to modern makes, and still runs the place day to day. Coffee in hand, usually somewhere between the front counter and the lift.

Management

Shafer Oldham

Manager · 3rd Generation

Placeholder bio — Shafer keeps the shop running alongside his dad. Same name on the building, same standards Chuck started with, with modern diagnostic tools and training to match today's vehicles.

The Fourth Generation

And waiting in the wings — Van.

Shafer's son Van is growing up around the shop the way his dad did. If he wants the keys someday, they're his — same name on the building, same way of doing things.

The Crew

The mechanics behind the work.

The Oldhams run the shop — but the work on your vehicle gets done by these guys. Between them they bring nearly sixty years of hands-on experience, with a younger mechanic learning the trade the right way alongside them.

35 Years

Wade

Senior Mechanic

Thirty-five years working on vehicles. If something rolls in that's got everyone else stumped, Wade is usually the one who walks over and figures it out.

20 Years

Bert

Mechanic

Two decades of experience and a steady hand. Bert handles everything from quick services to deep diagnostic work without cutting corners.

4 Years

Aeden

Mechanic

Coming up in the trade and learning fast. Trained alongside Wade and Bert — the next generation of mechanics, doing the work the right way from day one.



What We Stand On

The four things we don't compromise on.

Honesty

We tell you what we find, what it'll cost, and what can wait. No surprises on the bill.

Quality

Good parts. Careful labor. A job done once is cheaper than a job done twice.

Respect

Your vehicle, your money, your time. We treat all three like they matter — because they do.

Community

Most of our customers are neighbors. We plan on seeing them at the grocery store.



Parts We Trust

Real parts. From suppliers we've worked with for years.

We don't grab the cheapest box on the shelf. The parts going on your vehicle come from suppliers we've leaned on for decades — and today, we're a NAPA Auto Care Center, which means our work is backed by NAPA's nationwide warranty program.

NAPA

We're a NAPA Auto Care Center. Quality NAPA parts, honored at NAPA shops nationwide.

The Parts House

A long-time supplier we rely on for everyday parts and quick turnaround.

Jasper

For transmissions and engines — Jasper remanufactured units when a rebuild is the right call.

ACDelco

OE-grade GM parts when your vehicle calls for them. No knockoffs, no shortcuts.

Our Warranty

24 months. 24,000 miles. Whichever comes first.

Parts we install are covered for two years or 24,000 miles. If something we put on doesn't hold up, bring it back — we'll make it right.



Now Hiring

Looking for good mechanics.

The trade has shifted, and finding skilled mechanics gets harder every year. If you've got the experience — or you're an apprentice serious about learning the right way — we'd like to hear from you.

This is a family-run shop with steady, year-round work. No high-turnover chain dynamics. Fair pay, real respect, and the support to keep building your certifications.
