I do not know if they are now under the same management. People have also mentioned another western USA company that has multiple locations and does good work at low prices. I found it, Les Schwab Maybe someone will comment on this company?

I had them do some work for me a couple of years ago, but have since changed hands. Don't know anything about the new guys, but the old guys did a nice job.
