Cory Skerry, left, and Nick Hebert, Owners

H & S Auto is excited to announce that they opened their doors on June 1st, 2020. The new owners, Nick Hebert and Cory Skerry, purchased the Alleymar building on Park Road in Kensington, and after doing some renovations, took off running.

H & S Auto continues to offer the same services that Alleymar did, but their services have expanded to include diagnostics and electrical.

Nick actually worked at the shop under the old ownership for several years. The new face around the shop is Cory Skerry, the second owner. Nick and Cory have been friends since they were teens and worked together for a few years at Coast Tire, where Nick was a Tire Technician and Cory was an Apprentice.

Nick soon became interested in fixing cars, so he apprenticed and studied at Holland College, earning his Red Seal in March of 2019. He now has approximately seven years’ experience in the industry.

Nick is from Summerside, where he grew up. He is currently living in Traveller’s Rest with his wife and son. Cory lives in Indian River with his wife.

Cory was raised working on cars and went straight to Holland College after high school automotive class. He received his Red Seal in August of 2016. He has worked in various environments in the trade for about 10 years.

As young entrepreneurs, Nick and Cory are making their shop, H & S Auto, the kind of repair shop you want to go to! They offer fair pricing, quality work, and friendly service.

H & S Auto, 14 Park Road, PO Box 634, Kensington

They have joined the Kensington and Area Chamber of Commerce and are offering a discount to all KACC Chamber members. Stop in and meet these guys! Your car will thank you!
