Helpful crew and owner
We were traveling in out RV heading back home to NC and my check engine light started blinking pulled Dover to fi d a place and went to the Camping World and they said they don't work on the engines and recommended Cranston's down the street went in and explained that was traveling back to NC and had a problem they were very helpful and fit us into an already busy day. Thay diagnosed the problem and had parts ordered and was done the job in 2.5 hrs we could not have stopped at a better garage the customer service was awesome from the owner to the tech that did the work I would recommend this garage to anyone. And a big Thank You to all the staff there for getting us back on the road so we could get home safely.

Say hi to Steve the manager at the front desk, he is the heartbeat of the garage.

Excellent
This was the best repair experience that I ever had. They were honest fair and it made me believe that there are still trustworthy businesses out there. I will continue to go there for all my mechanical needs from now on. The kindness and concern was something you dont see in most businesses anymore!

Excellent Service
After having vehicle towed to Walter C Cranston & Son, they took my car in immediately to repair my alternator. Although, I had a problem with the newly installed alternator, they were able to fix the problem at no cost to me and I hopefully I will get few more miles on my old car that has over 217,000 miles on it until I'm ready to purchase a new vehicle. Thank you for your service.

Top notch, precise, quality and honest people. Been fixing a classic truck and Steve and company have been amazing to get it squared away.
