Professional Automotive Repair and Maintenance in Our Kenner Shop

Table of Contents

Mechanical service is the backbone of what we do at Armadillo Automotive. While many people recognize our shop for powder coating, wheel work, or customization, day-to-day automotive repair and maintenance remains a major part of our operation. The image shown highlights the wide range of services we handle in-house, giving customers a clear snapshot of how versatile our shop truly is.

A Full-Service Automotive Repair Shop

Our shop is set up to handle routine maintenance as well as larger mechanical jobs. From oil changes to engine and transmission swaps, vehicles come through our bays every day for professional care. Regular maintenance such as fluid services, inspections, and diagnostics helps keep vehicles reliable, while more involved repairs are handled with the same level of attention and precision.

Engine and transmission swaps are among the more complex services we offer. These jobs require experience, proper tooling, and a workspace designed for heavy mechanical work. Having these capabilities in-house allows us to take on projects that many smaller shops simply cannot handle.

Suspension, Drivetrain, and Performance Work

Mechanical repair is not limited to keeping vehicles running—it also includes modifying them to match how customers want to drive. We install lowering kits, leveling kits, and lift kits on trucks, SUVs, and cars. Suspension changes affect ride quality, handling, and tire wear, which is why they are installed with care and attention to alignment and fitment.

Drivetrain-related work often goes hand in hand with suspension services. Whether it’s addressing worn components or supporting performance upgrades, our shop is equipped to handle these jobs without outsourcing.

Tire, Wheel, and Safety Services

Tires play a major role in vehicle safety and performance. We offer tire mounting, balancing, and sensor service to help vehicles drive smoothly and safely. These services are often paired with suspension work, wheel repair, or general maintenance, allowing customers to take care of multiple needs in a single visit.

We also perform window and windshield replacements. Broken or damaged glass affects visibility and safety, and having this service available alongside mechanical repairs reduces downtime for customers.

Electrical, Convenience, and Security Work

Modern vehicles rely heavily on electronics, and our shop supports a variety of electrical services. This includes installing radios, lighting upgrades, and alarm systems. These services are common for customers who want added functionality or security without relying on multiple vendors.

Key fob replacement, reprogramming, and new key creation are also part of our service lineup. Losing or damaging a key can bring daily life to a halt, and having this handled at the same shop as mechanical repairs makes the process simpler and faster.

Body, Interior, and Restoration Support

Mechanical repairs often connect with body and interior work. We perform body and paint services for both insurance claims and out-of-pocket repairs, allowing customers to address mechanical and cosmetic damage in one location.

Interior cleanup and removal after flooding or leaks is another area we handle. Water intrusion can lead to electrical problems, mold, and long-term damage if not addressed properly. Removing damaged interior components helps protect the rest of the vehicle and supports follow-up repairs.

Headlight and taillight restoration, detailing, and ceramic coating services are also available. These services help improve visibility, appearance, and protection while complementing mechanical maintenance.

Specialized Shop Capabilities

Beyond traditional mechanical services, our shop handles sandblasting, stripping, rim repair, powder coating, and chrome delete work. Rim repair may involve welding cracks, fixing bends, or applying a machine finish before powder coating. These capabilities allow us to support vehicles from the ground up, whether the project is repair-focused or appearance-driven.

Having these services under one roof reduces the need for outside referrals and keeps quality control within our shop. Vehicles can move from mechanical repair to cosmetic work without unnecessary delays.

Built for Variety and Real-World Needs

The service list shown in the image reflects the reality of our daily workflow. No two vehicles are exactly the same, and many projects involve more than one type of service. A truck may come in for suspension work and leave with new tires. An SUV might need mechanical repairs along with interior cleanup. A performance vehicle may require drivetrain work followed by powder coating or detailing.

This range of services allows us to support customers with different needs, whether they are maintaining a daily driver, repairing storm-related damage, or upgrading a vehicle for performance and style.

At Armadillo Automotive, professional automotive repair and maintenance is not limited to one specialty. It’s a combination of mechanical skill, proper equipment, and the ability to handle complete projects from start to finish, all in one shop.
