Joel started Auto Tech Specialists right out of his own home. He'd work nights and weekends to ensure all the cars got done.
He slowly built up a collection of tools and equipment with the extra money he made.
When he purchased Auto Tech Specialists' current building, the down payment came from family on a loan, and the rest was borrowed from the bank.
The business opened in March of 2004, and Joel spent the first year working at his home shop while simultaneously working at another job.
He was eventually able to quit his job and work at the shop full time. Joel worked in his home shop for 2 years but eventually became so busy that he needed to expand.
Joel and his wife purchased a piece of land to build a new shop and moved the business to its current location in May of 2007.
With no real business training, the paperwork side of the business can get overwhelming, but Joel's love of fixing cars for customers throughout the community persists.
Today, the repair facility has expanded to 4 full-time techs in 7 bays and a full-time shop manager.
