ORANGEVALE, CA (MPG) - Time flies when you’re having fun, working hard or doing both! And that pretty much sums up how the past ten years have flown by for Jim and Maureena Moore, owners and operators of one of Orangevale’s premier auto repair shops, Moore’s Garage, located at 6326 Main Avenue, unit 52, Orangevale.

Having worked in the automotive industry for over 37 years, Jim Moore’s dream was to open his own auto repair shop focusing on building and maintaining strong relationships with his clients and repairing vehicles to the highest level of integrity. With the help of the love of his life and wife of 36 years, Maureena, that dream has become a reality.

“We are so honored, and sometimes taken back, by the unwavering support of the amazing Orangevale community and the trust they put in us,” said Maureena Moore. “Last spring we had more than a few customers, some brand new, call or walk in and say they wanted to use their stimulus funds to support us. That means so much!”

Thankfully, even through the uncertainty of the pandemic, Moore’s Garage has successfully navigated through it keeping all their employees working full schedules, hiring more staff and even expanding their facility into the vacant 1500 square feet next door. With this addition, Moore’s Garage has grown to 6500 square feet - more than doubling their space from the early days of 2500 square feet back when they opened their doors in February 2011.

The Moore’s say that what started out as a business has turned into a family. They live and work in Orangevale and are actively engaged in the community - always serving others and giving back which is likely a big part of why they are so beloved by the community.

“It’s so wonderful to have ‘friends’ aka customers that go out of their way to stop in and say hello,” said Maureena, “It makes our job easy to serve such great people. Our ability to expand and grow is due all in part to you, our wonderful community....customers that choose Moore’s Garage to keep their vehicles safely moving about.”

To show their appreciation the Moore’s hosted a 10th Anniversary Customer Appreciation Day on February 27, 2021, to thank everyone for their support including celebrating winning “Best Automotive Repair” in the Best of Orangevale 2020 awards for the 5th year in a row!

“There’s been no better place to ‘grow up’, raise our kids, and start a business,” Jim reflected, “Here’s to the next ten years of taking the worry out of car maintenance and repairs for you, our OV family.”
