The radiator from my Cummins/Chevy needs to be repaired, and I also need a gas tank cleaned from my dad's Chevy truck. The guy I used to use (Bob's Muffler in RTP) no longer does repairs, just sells new radiators.

Does anyone have a recommendation of a good place near RTP or Apex?

Thanks!
Richard

I had great work for reasonable prices done at Sapp's radiator repair. Closer to Garner than Apex, but only a little south of 440.

Same here - I had a radiator repaired by Sapps years ago and was very happy with the price and service.

Thanks all! I'll get down there when I get a day off work and get them to check it out.

Wanted to give a big thumbs-up to Sapps.

Took them a radiator that turned out to be no good. No charge for them to clean and check it. They said if I find a used replacement, to bring it in to get checked too - no harm to me since they check it for free.

Took them a gas tank and got it cleaned for $75.

Very knowledgeable, polite, and easy to deal with. Seems like really good customer service, which is lacking at so many places these days!!!

That's the same vibe I got from them. Glad to see they haven't changed.
