About us

Alba's Auto and Truck Repair began in a small shop at 3800 W. Alameda Ave in 2004. We operated out of there until the property was sold to the City of Denver. At that time we relocated to 775 Sheridan Blvd. We remained there until we were able to purchase a building to call home.

In March of 2011, we did just that at 105 Harlan St.

Andrew and Ricardo (father and son) had a dream to open an auto and truck repair shop so that they can offer people fair prices and quality work on the repairs of their vehicles. Andrew, an aviation mechanic by trade, was laid off from an economically hard hit on United Airlines after the 9/11 attacks. He and Ricardo decided it was time to go out on their own, starting out in a small shop in 2004. Now, 14 years later, business is booming. We do exhaust work, custom fabrication, tires, brakes, oil changes, electrical work, diagnostics, and anything else a vehicle would need.

Ricardo is the main mechanic. He has been working on cars since he was young, helping his dad work out of the driveway of their house. Ricardo oversees one other technician in the shop. Austin has been with Alba's Auto for just over four years. He is experienced in welding and loves fabrication. He has always had a passion for cars and motorcycles. . Janis is the secretary at Alba's and is married to Ricardo. She has been with us since the beginning. They have four children. The youngest, Antonio, helps at the shop after school and when he's on breaks. Janis oversees the office, does the bookkeeping, management of the shop and customer service.
