1955where it all began
A Rhode Island family business
Built on values that never go out of style.
Eric and Doris Hassell opened the garage in 1955. Today, three generations of the Hassell family continue that tradition—with the same commitment to honest work, lasting relationships, and treating customers like neighbors.
Raymond Hassell joined the business after serving during the Vietnam War. Donna Hassell later came aboard full-time and now co-owns the garage with her father, supported by family and a carefully chosen team.
“We work to keep their values and traditions intact.”Come meet the team →
