Quality work!

Cory Blundon

My favourite shop! These are the guys that keep The Mermaid on the road and our personal vehicle running great. There are a lot of great shops in Sydney, but this is one my favourite.

Jamie Foulds

These guys are simply the best. Don't waste your time and money elsewhere.

Angus WIlson

Always great to deal with

Caitlin O'Brien

I’ve gone to Merit a few times over the years for a variety of car troubles. The quality service and price can’t be beat. Would highly recommend them to anyone (especially fellow Volkswagen owners who have trouble finding mechanics willing to work on their vehicles)!

Took my truck in for tyres and some other work - not only was the price right but the guys had me back on the road right when they said they would - true professionals - I will most definitely be using them again

Home Again Plumbing Limited

I love being able to walk away from my truck knowing that I've left it in the hands of capable, competent, dependable and most importantly, honest mechanics! You can definitely count on the crew at Merit Muffler and most of the credit for that goes to the owners/management who kind of make you feel like family. Thanks guys!

Janet Tyson

Very professional - friendly - and patience ????

Christopher Cooke

Service was stellar and fast. The quote for the work seemed reasonable, and the final price matched the quote. They also found additional, non-critical issues with my car, but didn't use them to put me on the spot - they merely brought them to my attention when I arrived to pick up the car. Great experience all around.

Masters at Finding a needle in a haystack! I brought my bmw to Merit with multiple issues, many that had been worked on previously by another shop in another province. Merit was able to quickly and reasonably repair everything on the car, but there was one nagging issue that would not go away easily. Instead of giving up they spent extra time, effort, and expense to find the issue and solve it. I did my part as a patient customer while Merit put in the extra time and effort but did not charge me extra. True professionals! I highly recommend Merit. I see by other reviews that they have had some of the same customers for 20-30 years. I can see why. Thanks guys, for not giving up on my bucket of bolts.

Michael Francis

Great service. Always affordable. Always honest.

Greg Muise

Excellent service. Reasonable prices. Talk to ‘Skip’.

Maddi MacLean

I had an issue after my car was fixed here but the AMAZING staff went above and beyond to make it right. I would 100% recommend these folks to anyone

Arvinder Kaur

I visited there once only for a small car work but i would say they are the best. Some other mechanic said we need to spend $1100 on our car. But these guys are honest i could say

Jean Lavers

Excellent service and pricing, and a very friendly environment! Called to set up an appointment and was taken in right away that same afternoon. Will definitely be returning in the future when my vehicle needs any servicing!

Joanne Mantha

Our first choice Out of province and problems with our brakes just as we are entering Cape Breton park. We had already left Sydney but checking reviews we came upon Merit Muffler Brake and Wheel in Sydney who had stellar reviews. We concur. We drove back and the service we received was exceptional and our thanks to Skip and the mechanic who got our brakes fixed, even located another problem which was dealt with and we were on our way that very same day for a very reasonable price I might add. Thanks also for the loan of your vehicle to tour your beautiful Sydney Harbour area. We enjoyed your beautiful boardwalk and seeing your humongous 70 metre fiddle. Thanks Merit Muffler Brake and Wheel for fixing our home, our precious rv. We are most grateful and thankful we found you on google. You are the best.

Daniel Purnell

Wonderful service and a great help on our trip coming home to BC. They got us in right away and and checked everything over for us. Wonderful team working here.

William Gaudet

I would give less stars if I could. Overcharged on Parts. Refused to do the job because I want to provide my own parts.

Umair Ashfaq

Very friendly staff! Honest people and they stand behind their work. No long waiting and everything is done in a timely manner.

Robert Gordon

As always, great service and experience. Over 30 years of using their services.

Dave Graves

Have a 2010 Dodge Ram that the tail pipe rusted off. A replacement either from Dodge or after market was not available .Merit made temporary repairs to get me back to Ontario. Excellent and honest service at a very reasonable price.

Josh Bishop

Great service and just plain honesty

John MacDonald

I had a noise coming from the exhaust on my vehicle and so i thought it would be very expensive to fix and so i was pleasantly surprised when they told me it was only a gasket and would cost less than $100.00 to fix.It cost me less than $93.00 to fix.

Brandy Fish

Good work

Traveling ftom BC we had vehicle problems, went to a Ford dealer in south Ottawa cost a lot of money but only fixed part of the problem. As problem persisted a Ford dealer in Fredricton made an attempt but no change , cost lots more money . With the problem only getting worse I picked a repair shop off google maps hoping for the best and as luck would have it I chose Merit Muffler , one hour later all problems solved at onetenth of what I spent at the leaches at Ford. THANK YOU MERIT MUFFLER. THEO.

Allen Macleod

Great service at a good price and completed on time as usual.

Leigh Anne

They took me in last minute because my boyfriend works and he had no time so they squeezed me in and also they changed my highbeam when I asked them to look at it. They were very friendly and professional and I will be going back!

Sandy Reed

Excellent service at a great price. Definitely one to keep in mind if you need work done

Janet McGillen

Professional friendly service. Honest diagnosis and fair prices. Appointment times respected. Accurate estimates. We trust Merit Muffler and their crew.

Jerry Sponagle

Skip,Ken,and Jimmy and the rest of the boys are a great bunch. My opinion, they are the best bang for your buck on mufflers and brakes. I knew them for many years, a few different name changes, but the same great bunch. Keep it up boys! ????????

Francis McPhee

I had made an appointment for some exhaust work and was in and out in 45 minutes. The cost was not high, even when they had to make the part for my exhaust.

Michelle MacLellan

Great and quick service, friendly staff!

cheryl stapleton

Very friendly place to go..they are honest ; reliable and efficient .

Ann MacLeod-Gibbons

Always a pleasure dealing with the folks at Merit Muffler.

Nicole Quigley

Only place I get oil changes at. Great service and less expensive then a lot of other garages.

Florence Nygaard

I have been taking my cars to Merit Muffler for over 20 years and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the work is always done promptly and well, and they stand behind their work. One of my vehicles was a 1990 Volvo wagon and they kept her going strong for years. The charges are always fair and well documented. I would recommend them without reservation.
