The Parts Labor-Only Mobile Mechanic in Katy
“On the Move came to my place of business to fix our BMW Alpina's a/c system. We were quoted nearly $4k elsewhere — On the Move did the job for a fraction of the price. The a/c blows ice cold.”
“I was running out of options and my Range Rover needed an alternator put on. He is actually the only mobile mechanic that I will allow to work on my Range Rover.”
“My 2014 Honda Accord AC wasn't cooling and he diagnosed that I needed my AC compressor replaced. Now my air blows nice and cold even in heat. Very trustworthy mechanic indeed.”
“He was meticulous about making sure everything was in place. He walked me through everything and made sure I was well aware of what was going on in my car at all times.”
“I was more than satisfied with Scott's expertise. He even took the time to show me what he fixed and how.”
“He got the job done in like 15 minutes, and even made sure to reset the oil life indicator, something other mechanics tend to forget.”

Searching for a shop near you? Here's an honest look at what each one is good for, so you can pick the right one for your job.
| What Matters | Repair Shop | On The Move |
|---|---|---|
| Getting the car there | Drive it in or pay for a tow | We come to you |
| Your time | Drop-off, waiting room, ride back | Stay home or keep working |
| Bringing your own parts | Many refuse or charge more | That's the whole model |
| Parts markup | Built into the bill | None, you buy the parts |
| Who does the work | Whoever's free that day | Scott, every time |
| Heavy jobs needing a lift | Built for it | Not the right fit |
Straight Talk
When A Shop
Makes More Sense
We'd rather tell you up front than show up and waste your afternoon. Take these to a shop:
Engine or Trans Removal
Pulling a drivetrain needs a lift and a hoist.
Alignments
That takes an alignment rack. We can do the suspension parts; get it aligned after.
Frame, Welding & Body
Shop equipment, shop job.
Warranty & Recalls
The dealer does those for free, so don't pay anyone for them.

Got Questions?
Labor-Only Questions
Everything you need to know before booking an install. Still have a question? We're a call or text away.
📞 Call 346-717-6593Yes. Labor-only is how we work. Buy your parts wherever you like and we install them at your home, office, or roadside.
No. If you already have the diagnosis and the parts, just book the install. If you want us to confirm the problem first, the diagnostic is $80 and $40 of it is credited toward the repair.
Tell us when you book. A quick confirmation before installing can save you from paying for a part that doesn't fix the problem.
Jobs that need a vehicle lift, an alignment rack, an engine or transmission pulled, frame or welding work, or dealer warranty and recall repairs belong in a shop. Most diagnostics, brakes, sensors, starters, batteries, and installs can be done in your driveway.
Katy and Cinco Ranch, plus Fulshear, Cypress, and greater Houston. Not sure? Call or text 346-717-6593.
Yes, we stand behind our work. All labor we perform is warranted. Because you supply the parts, those carry whatever warranty you received from your supplier — keep your receipt. Ask us for specific details when you book, since labor coverage varies by repair type.
