Fitted in Minutes, Usually While You Wait
Wiper blades are not worth an appointment or an afternoon. Stop in, tell us the vehicle, and in most cases you are back on the road before you have finished checking your phone.

The Service
Wipers are the cheapest safety item on your vehicle and the one people put off longest. Streaking, chattering, or a blade that skips across the glass in a downpour on the Beltline is not a small annoyance, it is a visibility problem. TJ's Auto Repair handles Windshield Wipers in Burlington, VT, including blades, arms, motors, linkages, and washer systems.
Vermont is about as hard on wipers as it gets. Blades freeze to the glass overnight and tear when they break loose, the rubber goes brittle in the cold and soft in August, and scraping ice with the wiper still parked on the windshield bends arms and strips the motor linkage. A set of blades that lasts a year elsewhere is doing well to make it through one winter here.
If it is just blades, we will fit the correct size and type for your vehicle and you will be on your way in minutes. If the wipers are slow, parking in the wrong position, or not moving at all, that is a motor, linkage, or switch problem and we will diagnose it properly rather than guessing.
About Us
TJ's Auto Repair is a full service auto shop at 365 Riverside Ave in Burlington, Vermont. We are not a franchise or a parts counter. We are a local shop serving drivers throughout Chittenden County and the communities east of Lake Champlain, from Winooski, Essex, and Colchester to South Burlington, Williston, Shelburne, Milton, and Richmond.
Wipers, brakes, tires, oil changes, suspension, exhaust, engine diagnostics, air conditioning, and bodywork with insurance claim assistance all happen under one roof. Wipers are usually a two minute job, so if you are already here for an oil change or a tire swap we will take care of them at the same time rather than making it a separate trip.
What customers tell us they value most is the straight talk. Nobody gets rich selling wiper blades, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. We stock them, we fit them properly, and we would rather you get home safely in a February storm than save four dollars.
Why Choose Us
Four reasons Burlington drivers let us handle wipers rather than fighting with them in a parking lot.
Wiper blades are not worth an appointment or an afternoon. Stop in, tell us the vehicle, and in most cases you are back on the road before you have finished checking your phone.
Standard blades ice up in the frame and stop making contact with the glass halfway through a storm. Winter and beam style blades handle snow and freezing rain far better, and we will tell you which makes sense for how and where you drive.
Wipers that run slow, stop in the middle of the glass, or only work on high are telling you the motor, linkage, or switch is failing. That is a real repair, and it is one we can diagnose and fix rather than sending you elsewhere.
Clean glass in winter takes fluid as much as blades. We make sure the pump works, the nozzles are aimed and clear, and the reservoir has fluid rated for the temperatures we actually get, not the summer mix that freezes solid in January.

EXCELLENT Based on 89 reviews Posted on Google Aubrey ChadwickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t say enough good things about this auto shop. My low-income grandpa needed his struts replaced, he got the parts but he’s 73 yrs old and the summer heat is hard on him. and when times were tough, they stepped up and helped him without charging him a dime. That kind of kindness and generosity is something you don’t see every day. The owner is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. He genuinely cares about his customers and is not the kind of person to turn someone away when they truly need help. He goes above and beyond for people, especially those going through difficult times, and it’s clear that he values helping his community just as much as running a great business. The work was excellent, everyone was respectful and professional, and the compassion they showed our family is something we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for an honest, trustworthy auto shop with a big heart, I highly recommend them. Thank you for everything you did for my grandpa—we’ll always be grateful.Posted on Google Emi SosaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Great experience with Justin and his shop employees. Ive worked with Justin exclusively for a couple years now because I can trust him to get the job done.

NoPosted on Google Ismael JacquesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tire went flat. I stopped in to see if they could help. Let them know that I’m on a budget and looking to get it done quickly so I could get home. It has been a long day at work and I’m exhausted! My tire went flat as I was driving down the road and I saw their bay door was open. Even though they were past business hours, they greeted me enthusiastically and welcome to me inside. I explained my situation and they sold me a used tire and even put it on for a very fair price. Honestly, they could’ve taken advantage of me because my tire was flat in their lot, and no other shops were open. I had never been there before, but they treated me like I was family! Overall, I would say customer service… Price… And the ease of doing business was stellar! They really went above and beyond. I know I’ll be going back and I’ll be recommending everybody. I know to utilize their services from here forward! Thank you guys for helping me out!Posted on Google Mm ssTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
