About Us: A Legacy of Service Since 1965
Welcome to our family-owned service station, a testament to decades of automotive expertise and commitment to quality. Our journey began
in 1965 when our founder, Bert Lai, established the first service station, laying the foundation for a business that would stand the test of time.
A Journey of Growth: Over the years, our dedication to superior service has propelled us forward, leading us to operate from four different locations. Each move was a strategic step towards providing our customers with a more expansive and efficient automotive experience.
Finding a Home for Lai’s Auto Service: After our Sutherland location, we are proud to have found our largest and most prominent home at Lai’s Auto Service on 1901 Lorne Avenue, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. This state-of-the-art facility is a testament to our commitment to evolving expertise and quality service.
