Located at 937 NE Waldo Rd, Gainesville, FL 32641, J & K Machine Shop operates as an auto machine shop serving Gainesville in Florida. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.
In Gainesville, shops are busiest on Monday mornings and before holiday weekends, so a mid-week appointment gets a car seen faster. Labor rates across Florida vary by neighborhood and by shop type, from small independents to dealership service bays, and mobile mechanics now cover many routine jobs in the driveway. Before authorizing a repair, ask for the estimate in writing, whether the shop warranties parts and labor (12 months / 12,000 miles is common, some offer more), and whether it can provide a loaner or a shuttle. Check the listing for hours, the makes the shop works on and its Google rating, then call ahead, since walk-in capacity is limited at smaller shops.
The business lists hours on 5 days of the week. Typical hours are 9 amβ5 pm. It is closed on Saturday, Sunday. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach J & K Machine Shop at (352) 375-0409; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions. More information is available on its website, jkmachineshop.com.
On Google it holds a rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 93 reviews, which is a strong result for an auto machine shop in Gainesville and suggests consistent service.
Gainesville is in Florida, in the Southeast, where summers are long, hot and humid, winters are mild, and afternoon thunderstorms and the hurricane season from June to November can change plans at short notice. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Gainesville follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Great machine shop. It was my first time rebuild a car engine. It was a 1999 Buick century 3.1 liter v6. I gave them my bare block. They cleaned it, honed it, decked it, decked the heads to due to it having a corrosion issue witch was common for this car because it used dexcool, and they put my new pistons on. It's got about 4k miles on in now and it's running amazingly again. I was probably a little annoying but they were kind and I appreciate there patience.

Customer beware β this is handsβdown the worst machine shop experience Iβve ever had. I dropped off my cylinder head four days ago and never received a single update. The only positive part of the entire visit was the first technician, who was respectful and helpful. After that, everything fell apart. When I stopped by to check on the work, I was told the owner didnβt want to touch the valve train. If they donβt have the knowledge, thatβs fine β but the ownerβs attitude is the real problem here. The owner refused to acknowledge me. No greeting. No explanation. No eye contact. He literally walked right past me like I wasnβt even standing there. That level of disrespect tells you everything you need to know about how this place operates. If this is how the owner treats customers, imagine how little care goes into the work. I have a lot of machine work ahead of me, but none of it will ever go to this shop. I strongly warn anyone considering this place: take your business somewhere that actually respects its customers.

It was my first time at a machine shop and I needed a 2zzge head resurfaced. I don't know if the hot tank was a normal service with what I requested, but they cleaned up the head really nicely, so I went back with the block and girdle to get those cleaned up. Thanks for the service!

Very good job on my cylinder heads. Had a few bent valves they got it taken care of. Cleaned the heads real nice as well look like they came from factory. I would recommend anyone to take their parts that they need work on. Good time in and out service and price didnβt break my wallet. Very helpful and treat you like a person not like you donβt know anything. I canβt thank them enough.

Outstanding customer service and quality machine work. J&K built a customized engine for me, to my specs, that is everything I had hoped it would be. This is because Josh took my specs and added things like shortening the valve guides and changing valve springs to ensure it would work correctly - things I had not mentioned. Highly recommended - and I am admittedly very hard to please.
