TK Modern Auto

My own shop’s site prices first, takes an arrival-window request without an account, and explains the brake job before anyone calls.

A phone on a car seat at dusk showing the TK Modern Auto booking page: “Schedule service without the back-and-forth.”

What it does

  1. 01

    Estimate first

    “Fixed right. Priced first.” A written estimate comes before any authorised work. Online booking is a requested arrival window, and the shop confirms it by phone.

  2. 02

    Built to be found

    Per-route titles and canonicals, AutoRepair JSON-LD, a 26-URL sitemap with 15 service pages, and an llms.txt for AI assistants.

  3. 03

    Explains the job

    An interactive brake model on /services: switch pad wear, open the cutaway, follow the force from pedal to rotor.
