📍 Hemet, California · Riverside County

Hemet's Shop. The Country's Mechanic.

Supercanic started as a Hemet auto repair shop. We built supercanic.com to match the operation Anthony actually runs — Riverside County coverage, mobile-mechanic dispatch across 33+ cities, and the kind of search architecture that turned a local shop into a multi-state brand fielding 300 calls a week.

The Setup

Supercanic is Anthony's auto repair shop — based in Hemet, in the heart of Riverside County, with a mobile-mechanic dispatch operation that runs from the Inland Empire out to Phoenix and back. ASE-certified technicians, real engine-build photos in the bay, a 50,000-mile warranty on engine replacements. The shop is the real deal.

The website needed to be the real deal too. Auto repair is one of the most competitive local-search markets in the country, mobile mechanic is a niche with a totally different intent pattern, and Supercanic does both — plus diesel work, fleet, commercial, engine swaps, and the kind of complex diagnostics most shops won't touch. The site needed to support all of it.

The Two Sites You Should Actually Look At

Homepage
supercanic.com
Phone-first hero, 33-city service area ticker, six service entry points at published starting prices, real shop photos, and the Luis + Alaina team page that makes it obvious who's actually doing the work.
Engine Repair Vertical
/services/engine-repair.html
The flagship service page — engine swaps from $1,500, 50k-mile warranty, the kind of work most shops subcontract. Real photos of Mustang 289s, F250 460s, Triton V10s on the stand.

The Strategy

Auto repair search splits into two completely different patterns: shop-based intent ("transmission repair near me") and mobile-mechanic intent ("mobile mechanic Murrieta"). Most auto repair sites do one or the other badly. Supercanic does both, and the site architecture had to reflect that — service pages with shop pricing, mobile-mechanic positioning, and 33+ city pages on the coverage ticker.

Real photos of real work. Real published pricing — diagnostics from $125, engine repair from $1,500, brake service from $125. Real technicians on the team page — Luis on engines and electrical, Alaina on diagnostics, brakes, and mobile dispatch. None of it stock. None of it generic.

"You can't fake an engine bay. Either the photos are real or they're stock — and customers in the auto repair market know the difference faster than you'd think."

The Service Architecture

Six core service verticals, each with its own page and its own published starting price: diagnostics ($125), engine repair ($1,500), brake service ($125), oil changes, suspension, and mobile mechanic dispatch. Plus the things most auto repair sites don't bother with — a real "Recent Builds & Rebuilds" gallery with 18 in-bay work photos, a real team page, real Google reviews displayed inline.

The Coverage Ticker

The animated city ticker on the homepage isn't a gimmick — it's the actual mobile-mechanic service area. 33 cities across Riverside County (Hemet, Riverside, Murrieta, Temecula, Menifee, Moreno Valley, Palm Springs, Indio, plus 20+ more), Los Angeles County (Hawthorne, LA), San Bernardino County, and out into Arizona (Lake Havasu, Phoenix). Each one is a place a Supercanic mobile mechanic actually drives to.

The Companion CRM

The main site is one piece. There's also shop.supercanic.com — a full shop management CRM we built alongside the public site. Supabase backend, Netlify hosting, GitHub-version-controlled. The point is that Supercanic isn't just a website — it's a fully integrated operation where public-facing search, lead capture, dispatch, and back-office shop management all run through systems we built.

The Real Takeaway

Auto repair is one of the few industries where customer trust is built on photographs more than copy. If the engine bay photo on the homepage is stock, the customer knows — and the call doesn't come. Supercanic's site works because everything on it is real: real bays, real techs, real prices, real coverage. The website is what the operation looks like when the marketing and the trade are run by the same person.
