The Professional Story

The Professional Story

Professional Automotive started in 1994 as an Import specialist shop alongside a Subaru specialist shop. Owner, Rick Marino spent several years as a dealership service tech and would attend every Factory training class available. The knowledge and experience gained enabled him to earn Master Automotive certifications and become a top level Master Technician. In April of 1994, he decided to step away from the dealership environment and start his own company, Professional Automotive.
Leasing a small garage in Marlborough, the original intention was to service just Asian imports. However, many clients asked for service on their other Import and Domestic automobiles, which was done with great success. Working alongside the Subaru specialty shop, Rick learned the in’s and out’s of the Subaru line, and became

ell versed on servicing them. Before long, the one man band operation expanded to several employees. The company soon gained recognition for being a better alternative to the dealer and outgrew the little building. They moved to a larger building in 1997 this time purchasing a 5000 sq. foot service building that serviced all makes and models that was located just a block away. The specialty repair business merged with the newly acquired all makes and models business, and the rest is history. Professional Automotive had grown steadily from a one-man band small facility to a first-rate service team with numerous employees and a full seven service bays. Throughout the years, Professional Automotive gained a popular reputation as being “THE” place to have your car repaired. We are known for our attention to details and for fixing it right the first time.
