Drive Into Mr. Lube In Saint John For Safe, Stay In Your Car Services
SAINT JOHN – Mr. Lube in Saint John has added a second location to keep up with the demand for its fast service, high-quality preventative maintenance.
Every car owner knows the stress of having a vehicle break down and in need of repair. That is why the owners of two Mr. Lube locations in Saint John encourage their customers to perform preventative maintenance on their vehicles that save time and money.
Proudly Canadian since 1976 with locations across Canada, Mr. Lube specializes in preventative maintenance, such as oil changes, tire rotation, and undercoating, batteries and more. Dena Graham, who owns and operates the two Saint John Mr. lube locations with her husband Peter, points out that Mr. Lube can service your car safely during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“We’re actually positioned in a unique way through the pandemic, in that we are a true stay-in-you-car service,” said Graham. “So, our customers, start to finish, never have to leave their vehicle for any of our services. And we offer an almost touchless service.”
“You can literally pull up, kids still in the car, turn your car off get your oil changed and get your tires done with no appointment.”
The Grahams opened their first Mr. Lube location at 45 Depot Ct in 2014. Dena Graham recalls how her husband had been interested in automobiles all his life, so owning a Mr. Lube was a natural fit.
“Peter has always had a passion for cars…he’s worked at dealerships around the city, even during high school and right out of high school,” she said.
It wasn’t long before the customer base for Mr. Lube in Saint John began growing at a rapid pace. It became clear that a second location was needed to handle the demand.
“The volume of cars exceeded what we had anticipated, and it’s continued to grow over the last five years, which caused us to look at another store in Saint John,” explains Graham.
In early December of 2020, the Grahams opened their second Mr. Lube location at 940 Fairville Blvd. Excited to offer another site to the community for quality car care, a one-stop-shop for all your maintenance needs.
“Going ahead with the build and opening in the middle of a pandemic added an extra level of fear, but we believe in the Mr. Lube brand,” said Graham. “It’s a good brand that offers a great service.”
By opening a second location, the Grahams are also providing valuable employment at a time of economic downturn. Between the two shops, Mr. Lube in Saint John employees 20 people.
Best of all, everyone involved in Mr. Lube – from the customers to the owners – are made to feel like they are a part of a large family. Whenever Dena Graham has a question about the business, she can call another franchise owner or corporate headquarters, and someone is there to help.
“With Peter and I being both born and raised in Saint John, it’s really important for us to be associated with a company that puts customers first, and Mr. Lube is a company that does that,” said Graham.
