Automotive Facility Service (AFS) is a family-owned company that has been equipping auto repair shops, body shops, dealerships and fleet garages across New York since 2006.
AFS was founded by Juan Chavez Sr., a mechanical engineer and spray booth specialist who has spent his career designing, installing and servicing shop equipment. Today he runs the company alongside his son, Juan Chavez Jr., who leads marketing and operations.
We are not a call center or a drop-shipper. When you hire AFS, you get the same family and the same crew from the first site visit to the final inspection, and after that whenever you need service.
AFS by the numbers
