    Grove Street Auto Repair Celebrates 25 Years of Service to Franklin Families


    Franklin, MA - July, 2023 - Grove Street Auto Repair, a locally owned and operated full-service auto repair shop, is thrilled to announce its 25th anniversary serving the Franklin community. Owned by Patrick Weidman, Grove Street Auto Repair has been providing honest and reliable automotive services since 1998.


    Since its establishment, Grove Street Auto Repair has upheld the philosophy of "Your Family Depends On Our Family," extending their commitment to both clients and employees. With this ethos at the heart of their operations, they have cultivated a culture of exceptional service, earning a stellar reputation for honest and accurate automotive care.


    The journey began when Patrick and his brother Bobby worked at their uncle's auto repair shop in Westboro, MA, alongside their three other siblings. In 1998, they decided to venture out on their own, opening a small location at 15 Grove Street in Franklin. As their reputation grew, they outgrew their initial space and constructed a state-of-the-art facility at 79 Grove Street in 2005, enabling them to provide exceptional service and accommodate their expanding clientele.


    As a true family business, nearly all of the six Weidman siblings have had a role at Grove Street Auto Repair. Bob Sr., now 88 years old, still contributes three days a week, emphasizing the welcoming and friendly atmosphere that customers appreciate. Longtime employee Tom, who joined the team in 1999, is considered part of the extended family.


    Grove Street Auto Repair's success can be attributed to their dedication to customer service and their deep-rooted connection to the Franklin community. The Weidman family's commitment to helping others, instilled from a young age, has translated into a business that goes above and beyond in supporting the local community. They sponsor local sports teams, donate to the food pantry and PTO organizations, and raise funds for charities, particularly those focused on cancer research and support.


    Keeping pace with technological advancements in the automotive industry, Grove Street Auto Repair invests in updated equipment, technician training, and specialized knowledge. Recent training includes advanced Tesla and electric vehicle classes, ensuring they remain at the forefront of vehicle safety and convenience features.


    Grove Street Auto Repair understands the importance of giving back to the community and regularly engages with the public through events such as "Ladies Night" and teen driver programs. Future initiatives will include a Catalytic Converter Identification Program to combat thefts. These efforts aim to demystify automotive maintenance and empower participants with essential skills.


    As Grove Street Auto Repair celebrates 25 years of dedicated service, Patrick Weidman expresses his gratitude to the loyal customers and friends who have supported their journey. Their lasting friendships and shared life events are a testament to the strong bonds formed within the Grove Street Auto Repair community.
