40-year family-owned Brittain’s Express Oil & Lube begins major building improvements
State-of-the-art renovations should take several weeks

Brittain’s Express Oil and Lube, a trusted name in auto care since 1986, announced today that it has temporarily closed its shop for renovations. The closure is expected to last several weeks as the facility undergoes major updates to better serve its customers.
Owner John Brittain shared the reason behind the project:
" Starting next Monday, we will be closed for a few weeks to do a renovation project at the Larkin Avenue shop. My dad Randy started the business in December 1986, and over the years the building has started to show its age. We’ll be completing steel work, concrete work, and painting to refresh and strengthen our shop."
