Walnut Creek Smog

I did not make an appointment but only had to wait about 15-20 minutes to get my car smogged. Friendly and efficient service. They also do car repairs.

Was in and out in 15 minutes of my appointment. Highly recommend. Will be back.

Professional and competitively priced service - you can't beat that combination.

Had an appointment for today to have my car smogged. I have had many cars smogged and have always dreaded it (it's like going to the dentist for me!). Took my car in right on schedule. Told me the time it would take and was right on the dot!!
I am so happy I was referred to Walnut Creek Smog and will continue to come and refer them.
Not only prompt, but also very courteous and pleasant to deal with.
Also the waiting area is also pleasant and relaxing with a/c while you wait which is such a plus with this heat wave we are having.
I will no longer dread getting my cars smogged!
Please keep taking appointments for smog checks especially on Saturdays.
Thank you!

Great business with courteous, efficient and responsible proprietor. Answered messages promptly. Made appointment at convenient time. In and out in about 20 minutes. Have gone there twice for smog test and will keep going there.

It is not often that one finds themselves contemplating the nuances of a smog check, an experience typically devoid of charm or excitement. Yet, on rare occasions, even the most mundane tasks can be elevated to something more--a brief encounter with efficiency, friendliness, and value that leaves one unexpectedly satisfied. Such was my recent visit to this particular smog check shop, a place that, against all odds, manages to make the otherwise tedious process of vehicle inspection something worth remarking upon.

From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this establishment understands the importance of customer service. Andy the owner, without a hint of pretension, greeted me with a warmth and friendliness that is all too rare in such environments. His demeanor was not one of hurried obligation, but of genuine concern for the customer's experience--a small but significant detail that set the tone for what was to follow.

The process itself was remarkably easy. In a world where bureaucracy often bogs down even the simplest of tasks, this shop stood out for its efficiency. The smog check was conducted with a quiet competence, free of unnecessary delays or complications. I found myself almost surprised at how smoothly everything proceeded, as if the entire operation had been designed to respect not only my time but also my patience--a precious commodity in the realm of automotive care.

And then, of course, there is the matter of value. It is one thing to receive good service; it is quite another to receive it at a fair and reasonable price. This shop excelled in both regards. The cost of the service was refreshingly modest, especially considering the level of care and attention provided. In an industry where one often feels like just another number, this shop managed to make me feel like a valued customer--no small feat.

In conclusion, let me state unequivocally: this is the best smog check place in the world. With its super-friendly owner,, seamless process, and unparalleled value, it has set a standard that few could ever hope to match. For those in need of a smog check, look no further--you will not be disappointed.

trying out a new repair spot! got a referral from my friend to give andy a try at walnut creek smog!

i really appreciate the keen eye of noticing something so little and also giving me recs on how to go about our 200,000+ mile vehicle

i didnt mind crossing the bridge and paying a little extra to pay andy a visit!

for what he charges, the service requested and quality, car repair is definitely re-assuring!

well done and thanks again!

Fast friendly service at a great price - this is the right place for your smog check.

Spoke with Andy and was able to confirm appt for next day. Alex received my vehicle and was expecting me already. Waited in ac waiting area which was nice on hot day. Staff was very friendly and courteous.

Quick and friendly, will definitely go back and would recommend to anyone who is need of smog service.

I was recommended here to do a smog check for my old 2008 Z4 from our go-to mechanic. I tried to get in same day on a Friday but they were booked until mid-day Saturday. I called again on a Tuesday and was able to get in same day within 2 hours.

The guys on the phone and at the desk were super friendly. The smog check was about 15-20 mins as promised.

I've been to a few smog check stations, which are closer to my house, and would say that this would be my preferred place for service and price and they actually have an indoor waiting area with AC!

It is absolutely no surprise that I had an experience similar to many others on this page. What I found to be exceptional about this experience was working with Andy and his team. I brought my Honda in for smog repairs. The shop was clear on the costs, the cost was very reasonable, they got back to me soon after taking my car in, they gave me options of what to do next.

They were clear, honest, and easy to work with. I'm planning on selling my car and my other car is electric so I won't have to take it in and I'm surprised to be a little bummed about not having a reason to come back here. It speaks volumes to the level of skill and professionalism this shop delivers. Andy's just a great human as well. If you talk to him you'll feel it immediately. I really wish the best for them. This was a great find and experience through and through.
