Blaesi's Automotive
For almost a half-century, the building located at 981 Hudson Avenue was used as an automotive repair shop. Until 2001, the garage was known as Ken's Garage. That year, it underwent a major metamorphosis. This was no 'tune-up.' This was a major overhaul. Like many businesses in major cities, the garage had lost focus.

Several small businesses were housed under the same roof, including a collection agency, residential apartments and other uses. However, in 2001, Ken's Garage was purchased by a true entrepreneur, a young man dedicated to building a first-class automotive repair shop. That first year, simple cosmetic changes were made.

Blaesi's Automotive was founded by James (Jim) Blaesi. In 2000, he purchased Ken's Automotive. With a commitment to excellence, a passion for automotive repair and a willingness to work hard, Jim transformed a run-down, antiquated, tired garage on Hudson Avenue into a best of class, world-class automotive repair facility.
Blaesis' Automotive is truly unique. The company is committed to meet the automotive repair needs of its customers, regardless of the requirement. To meet that commitment, Blaesi's hires the best, the brightest service technicians. The shop is equipped with state-of-the-art tools and equipment. To borrow a line from a popular movie, "We have the tools; we have the talent."
Don't let your car's air conditioner get you hot under the collar. When the heat of summer arrives, let us make sure you enjoy the experience of a cool, air-conditioned car. Over time, fittings can work loose, hoses and seals can wear out - and your ride no longer keeps you cool. it gets you hot and bothered.
Just as important as the hardware components, brake fluid is critical to the performance of your brakes. As time passes, brake fluid may become contaminated, shortening the life of your vehicle's brake system and adversely affecting performance. Exchanging brake fluid as specified by your vehicle's manufacturer reduces the risk associated with contaminated brake fluid and helps avoid expensive brake repairs.
Since the introduction of On-Board-diagnostic II systems (OBDII), use of computers and software in cars have been expanding exponentially. Fixing in-car software has rapidly become a leading cause for automotive service. Data suggest that 70% of the vehicles on the road require a software calibration update.

More than satisfied with their work! Even more satisfied with their prices!! They take great pride in their work and do the job right the first time. Highest quality service at the best prices you will find anywhere. They specialize in custom exhaust service and have one of the only pipe benders around. What would have been an over $2000 job (quoted) at a dealer was $150 here. The experience of the owner and his entire crew is beyond obvious, with the only thing surpassing it being their honesty. Beyond impressed with them all the way around. Even though a bit of a drive for me, they are the only

They truly are the best and genuinely care about you as a customer. There's no guess work with these guys. They know what they're doing and want to get your vehicle fixed and running like new. Vehicles are expensive, Blaesi's is not!

Customer for life! The guys here are friendly, no nonsense, and they don't try to use scare tactics or up sell you to things you don't need. They work on EVERYTHING! Foreign imports to hooptie domestic. If you want to feel like you're not getting ripped off and getting great service, come here.

I have been working in the automotive business in Rochester for almost 20 years. There are plenty of shops that my car could break down in front of and I would tow it somewhere else. Blaesi's is not one of those shops. Jim and his guys are great. They have never disappointed. They are thorough and very professional.
