About Ballenger’s Service Center

Established in 1970

Ballenger’s Service Center has been dedicated to keeping Virginians on the road for decades. Originally located in Clarke County, VA, we briefly closed our doors in the late ’80s to explore new paths—but our passion for automotive care never faded. By 1991, we returned to the industry we loved because, for us, fixing cars isn’t just a job—it’s second nature. Today, we stay ahead with continuous training to tackle modern vehicles. Committed to quality and treating every customer like family, we’re here to keep you safely on the road.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

“The team at Ballenger’s always comes through for us, and for a reasonable price. At one point, they saved us over $2K by replacing an inexpensive air conditioning switch instead of replacing the whole system like other shops wanted to do. Our a/c is still running great years later.”

“Jamie worked with my schedule and appt time and did an excellent job of replacing my complete driver’s side mirror and fixture. My car was finished quicker than I thought it would be and the price was very reasonable. I will definitely go back as needed.”

Our Team

Evelyn

Evelyn

Evelyn, affectionately known as Chevy, is a self-taught mechanic with 12 years of experience. Her passion for cars emerged early on when she installed her own exhaust system in her driveway—a nine-hour endeavor that solidified her love for hands-on automotive work.

Chevy began her professional journey with an apprenticeship at Lexus, where she attended school and earned her certification. After graduating, she ventured into the independent field to gain a broader variety of work experiences. Over the years, she has attended numerous master classes, earned certifications from Jasper Transmissions and ASE, and developed expertise in HVAC diagnosis and repair, drivetrain drivability and repair, engine repair, and electrical theory and systems. Currently excelling in welding school with straight A’s, she is set to graduate in November.

In her free time, she enjoys heavy metal concerts, fly fishing, and expressing her creativity through nails and tattoos.

Chevy is also a proud mother to her first child, celebrating two years of recovery. She resides in a tiny home with her two beloved cats, Coffee Bean and Sterling.
