B & R Repair

What B & R Repair does

B & R Repair, Inc. is a privately held commercial vehicle repair services company founded in 1987 and headquartered in Lemont, Illinois. The company specializes in the repair and maintenance of tractors, tankers, trailers, trucks, buses, and other cargo transport units, employing 40 certified technicians to serve automotive, transportation, and fabrication needs. The service portfolio includes computer diagnostic troubleshooting, fleet preventive maintenance, vehicle up-fitting, and custom fabrication, supported by a parts program covering blowers, hydraulics, vacuum systems, compressors, and pumping systems, as well as a complementary equipment sales division.

The business operates through three physical service facilities located in Lemont, IL (headquarters), Hammond, IN, and Wampum, PA, providing coverage to the Greater Chicagoland Area and Tri-State Region. Pick-up and delivery service is offered to reduce friction for fleet operators. The technology stack is largely operational rather than software-driven — diagnostic work leverages computer-based troubleshooting tools typical of commercial vehicle repair — and the company maintains a limited digital presence via its Wix-hosted website and a YouTube channel, supplemented by memberships in industry associations including the National Tank Truck Council (NTTC), Wisconsin Liquid Waste Carriers Association (WLWCA), and Illinois Ready Mixed Concrete Association (IRMCA).

Revenue is generated primarily through professional service fees for repair, maintenance, diagnostic, and up-fitting work, billed on a quote-based, pay-as-you-go cadence with no publicly disclosed pricing. The go-to-market is direct-to-customer at physical service bays or via mobile pick-up and delivery, targeting transportation and logistics companies, fleet owners, and operators of tankers and cargo transport units. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent company, institutional investors, or funding history.
