They were so kind! I heard a big noise from my muffler and went to see Abbotsford Budget Break and Muffler — turns out my exhaust pipe had popped out. They put it back up for me for free! Definitely going back.
14 January 2024 7:32
Paul Got me in right away. The job was done right and on time. The price was as quoted. All around a refreshing experience. Thank you
08 January 2024 9:29
Got my ram 1500 muffler and resonator deleted, great job no complaints! Highly recommend visiting their business!
06 January 2024 4:50
Great service, got my vehicle in right away. And they couldn't find any problem so they didn't charge a fee. Very honest, would recomend.
11 August 2023 2:10
I’ve come here a couple times now with my car and the service has always been amazing. Super friendly staff always being helpful in getting me what I need. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for work done to their car!
03 August 2023 16:18
I have recently got exhaust work done on my 2016 Mercedes and the workers there were super friendly and did an amazing job on my car. It’s was done quick and cheap. I would highly recommend.
17 March 2023 16:59
Super friendly and explained everything they did to my exhaust and what should have been done in the past. I will definitely be coming back when I need to. Thank you
17 March 2023 2:08
Colin and Team have been very kind and courteous with my various vehicle related issues as of late. Fair pricing and great service goes a long way!
26 February 2023 11:00
Called Colin and he squeezed into their busy schedule a vehicle inspection of a close family friend's old car so that she could do a road trip to Prince Rupert to attend her father's celebration of life. Talk about service. And someone you can trust. Colin and his team have helped me out many times over the years. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Colin and his team.
02 January 2023 17:21
Colin knows his stuff! Always does an amazing job when doing work on my vehicles, quality work. His guys have done my 2022 GMC Elevation, 2012 Genesis Coupe and my 96 300zx and they all sound amazing! Thanks again Colin!
09 November 2022 12:29
Absolutely thrilled and very happy about the work they did on my 1990 f150 4x4.
I bought this truck with no exhaust. I was quoted so many ridiculous prices for a exhaust system.
I called abbotsford budget brakes and muffler and they were really reasonable.
Took my truck there. They performed above and beyond. Really good job on my new exhaust.
Very professional and Absolutely top notch quality work. Would recommend these guys to anyone great work guys.
26 September 2022 11:39
Got great exhaust work done on multiple vehicles, they're work speaks for itself. Friendly and highly experienced staff.

I was referred to this business, and I'm glad I was. I had to get my muffler repaired and everything worked out great. 100% would go back for any future repairs.
09 September 2022 12:08
I came in for a second opinion, knowing something was off with my brakes. They were friendly, quick, efficient, and able to slip me in and fix the issue.

While waiting, saw how polite and helpful Colin was, I could tell that this shop had customers that were like family.

Highly recommend!
12 August 2022 6:29
Budget Brake are a stellar example of great customer service. From the first phone call asking for a quote, to getting my vehicle in and out in a timely manner, and at a day/time that is convenient for me - they are 100% there for the customer! Thank you so much!
31 May 2022 22:24
Great service from honest auto repair business. Colin and his crew diagnosed and repaired the issues with my GMC Yukon. Very quick turn-around. WIll be my go-to mechanic now that I have discovered Colin and Budget Abbotsford.
28 May 2022 17:03
I went in to see these guys for a flex pipe repair on my car. The quote was $280 plus taxes. (1.5hours) labour, I thought that was high so I phoned back and asked if they could do any better. The fella said no. Thank goodness cause I called Midas & the only charged me $189 taxes included. Done in 30 minutes. I will NEVER go to budget again. Highway robbery!
07 August 2021 11:12
We will never go anywhere else when the Abbotsford location is open and owned by the same family. Top notch service.

Wayne got me in right away, no charge for the estimate, showed me on my car what was essential, and options for non-essential: Printed out an estimate and got me in right away! I work five days a week and it's become harder and harder to get in with my mechanic who doesn't have enough hoists so finally I decided to try Budget and am going to stick with them. Very kind. This is the place to go. Also, Wendy's, Timmies, Starbucks, & House of James are all just steps away, which beats having to hoof it four blocks like I used to have to do
22 May 2021 14:18
I got my car fixed almost 2 years ago. The dealer ship wanted over 3000 But the advise suggested by Wayne at the time was the best thing ever for my car as he helped me saved so much Money that dealership was asking. I have had no problems at all since the last time I took it to them. I highly recommend Wayne and his team. He is the best no doubt.
17 May 2021 13:26
Wonderful staff! They are so friendly and punctual during appointments. I asked them to do an overall check of my vehicle and they completely put my mind at ease knowing it’s safe and what I need to prepare to fix in the future. Highly recommended!
15 May 2021 5:32
These guys are simply the best! They actually try to save their customers some money. They truly live up to their name: BUDGET

My friend had some exhaust work done on his SRT. Sounds mean! And best prices in town, would highly recommend.
03 January 2021 12:37
I'll won't be going anywhere else, they saved me a few hundred dollars and customer service was excellent. This is the place to go if you want good honest people working on your vehicles. Keep up the good work
31 December 2020 2:09
Great service! Professional quick and convenient.

Didnt charge me more than I needed done. Was actually chaleapee then expected so they saved me money!

Torn between 4 and 5 stars. They didn’t charge for diagnosis which is awesome, but charged pretty liberally when I looked up the parts cost.
I probably would have paid slightly less at the dealer in this case but Budget got it done just about immediately. Our problem was time sensitive so I’m glad we got it fixed fast but if it was less of a hurry I probably would have went with a lower cost option. Overall happy but I think there may be a little bit of blurred lines when it comes to how you’re being charged. Effectively the diagnosis is “ free” but you’ll pay it eventually if you choose to fix the problem
04 December 2020 20:48
Hands down the best place to be when any exhaust work needs to be done. Colin is a super helpful guy when you need any advice. This place did an excellent job on my exhaust, exactly how I wanted it to be.
25 November 2020 5:33
Called in morning. Got a time for that afternoon to bring my car in for a res delete. Had in and out with in 30 min. Great work and a very fair price. Thanks guys. I will be back for more exaust projects in the future for sure
15 November 2020 19:30
Asked a question about my tires and got an honest answer. Service was on time and done with a drive check to make sure no problems with the alignment. I'm very pleased with the service.
11 November 2020 5:33
WHOEVER your using now for your vehicle maintenance, you need to switch to BUDGET BRAKE on south Fraser st, Abbotsford. I cannot tell you how fair they are and super awesome to deal with. I can honestly say that there a very few businesses that treat you as well as they do. I wish I could pull a 10/10 for them. Our family will never leave!

I went to lordco ordered the pipe and mufflers cost me $275 and my time they wanted over $900 what crooks and I got all the same parts that they were gonna sell me at a huge mark up
01 October 2020 11:56
I was very impressed with the service of this location. I needed to have my car checked for ICBC purposes. Colin was professional, quick and honest. Fortunately I don't have to have any work done but if I do in the future, I would definitely come back here. Thank you, Colin, for your help this morning!
19 June 2020 10:19
Got my rotors and asked if anything else was wrong with the car and they say not it's perfectly fine, now I am stuck on a highway! No idea what they did wrong with perfectly fine running car!
19 June 2020 6:38
These guys were very quick, helpful, and respectful. Stayed late for me to pick my car keys up and pay my bill when they didn't have to
08 May 2020 12:32
Absolutely the best customer service I have ever had! Called in the morning, got me in right away, diagnosed my problem, fixed it and had me in and out within 15mins! I highly recommend going to this location!

There was a strong smell of cigarette smoke when I first walked into the office a strong odor of cigarette smoke in my Jeep.
20 March 2020 2:05
Been coming here for years! Service is amazing, staff is super friendly. Would recommend anytime!
19 March 2020 9:08
These guys are great, always honest, and always there to help get you in, car fixed and out the door.
17 March 2020 12:26
My husband and I both have brought our cars to him unsure of the condition of them (we are not mechanical inclined) and it turned out that both times our breaks were in perfect condition not in need of replacement. I feel like sometimes is hard to find honestly mechanics who really have your best interest in mind. We really appreciated their help and will 10/10 return when we are actually in need of a break replacement. Also the staff were super friendly and quick both occasions! Thanks guys!
15 March 2020 12:31
The owner is very bad guy- he charged me for nothing! In the end he told me to go to the same company to get my ABS checked. Bad service!
23 February 2020 23:37
These are THE boys in town to get you on the road how you want to be on the road, and for fair prices. We've been coming here for two generations!
02 February 2020 4:05
Very friendly staff! Knew exactly what I wanted and suggested things that would help me achieve my goal with my cars exhaust. Very knowledgeable staff
17 January 2020 18:07
Colin is a good guy, really nice and when he woks on the cars great service.however a couple of his staff shouldn't hold jobs! Have had my car in there several time to replace parts, and on all occasions except when colin worked on it i had issues.like bolts not put back or zap straps used in place of bolts! So it's sad to say i will never go back! It's to bad because colin is a really good guy. He should consider getting rid of a couple of his lazy grumpy employees who don't want to do a job that is to hard!
03 January 2020 12:03
Brought my 03 Audi A6 4.2L in today. Staff super uber phenomenal customer service! Rushed my car in, made my exhaust system and tips look brand new and knowledge of German car engineering! The shop's wners son, gave me a super awesome price AND included some free shop supplies and I INSTITED I PAY, he say no, all good. 100% honest. Made my exhaust system look from -10 to +100 improved and looks as previous owner had NO clue on cars in general. The shop's owners Son whom handled my complex situation was beyond fair, honest and it is VERY evident he and staff work with 100% integrity! I STRONGLY advise people to bring their cars and trucks to this location and to not bring it to any other brake and muffler shop in abbotsford. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Thanks to all staff for their collaboration. Very smooth and attentive service to my Audi and myself. Thank you everyone! I WILL be bringing my Audi and other vehicles in for servicing over the future years. PS: They did a phenomenal job, and I am forever grateful for the entire team. Best, Alex.

I had an issue with an exhaust hanger on my truck (work originally done at a different shop). Took the truck in on a Saturday morning, the staff were super friendly and fixed the issue at a fair rate! Honest, fast service!
27 October 2019 5:17
Brought my car in yesterday to have a new water pump put in. (Cost me a little over $1500). Tried to drive it to work today, car died on route. Had to have it towed back home. I popped the hood and can literally see parts left unattached dangling in the vehicle. Took pictures as proof. The service centre is closed until Monday, so hopefully they have a good explanation for their shoddy work when they open first thing Monday morning. Would not recommend this business.
22 September 2019 19:03
I've been to Budget Brake & Muffler in Abbotsford a few times now. They certainly are good at what they do. If there is any problem after they will help deal with it until it is solved. They give me the option to decide if I need a certain replacement part or service, after discussing it. If it's urgent, they will tell you AND also show you the old part and how it was broken. Great service!
13 September 2019 5:37
Today was the first time going to Budget Brake and Muffler. I loved that I could schedule an appointment for a specific time and not have to leave my car there all day. The staff was very courteous and friendly. Good old fashioned service. I'll definitely be back. 5 Stars!
30 August 2019 5:22
Old School service.very fast service and very accommodating. Had my repair done inside of an hour.would recommend them to anyone
11 July 2019 3:38
Was given a quote by one of the guys to get my exhaust done, went in to get it done, the owner said he won't do it for that much and added $200 more to the quote. I took a day off work to only get kicked out the store at 9am.waste of my time and lost day of work.
23 June 2019 11:34
They did my wife's brakes with a pair of rotors for $350 + tax. I love it. Also friendly staff.
05 June 2019 15:02
Absolutely the best!

Can’t say anymore

Excellent service and work

They’re the best! They took my barely moving Subaru in with no notice, fixed it, fixed the issue that caused it. They then patiently explained everything to me – why it happened and what had to be done. No one has ever done that. As a woman who knows nothing about inner workings of a car - going to mechanic it is always little unnerving. How do I know what really needs to be fixed and what I am really paying for? Well, did not need to worry about that. Everything was clear from the beginning.

It was past 5 pm and shop was supposed to close at 5 but the guy just said that he would not let me drive from Abbotsford to PoCo with a car that is not running properly. Plus, they fixed a light bulb so I could drive home safely.

All that while keeping my costs down as much as possible. I am beyond impressed.
My car might be a piece of s**t but guys in budget are awesome!

People like the guys at Budget Brake and Muffler restored my faith in the old ‘honest mechanic’. It doesn’t get any better than this.

I had receieved a quote for a brake repair (front and back) from the dealership and called these guys to ask what they would charge for the same job. The quote was $350 less than the dealership and came with a lifetime warranty on the brake pads. I dropped off my vehicle so that the brake replacement could be completed. A few hours later I got a call from the honest guys working at Budget, they let me know that brakes still had life in them and do not need to be replaced at this time. They said the front brakes may need to be replaced in 4-6 months and the back brakes had lots of life left. They handed me the keys and charged me nothing, effectively saving me the $887.00 I was quoted by the dealership.

Shocked that they wouldn’t even accept a small payment for the diagnosis, I tried to insist on paying something. The man at the counter (Cory?) said all he’d ask in return is that I give them a shot at doing the front brakes when the time comes, and I assured him that they have my business for life.

Budget Brake and Muffler saved me nearly $900 right before Christmas, and I can’t thank them enough.
