The best of Houston is often buried in anonymous industrial parks and Mike's is certainly off the beaten track.  It is not a place for those who do not have an appreciation of the fact that work is often dirty.  I took in a three quarter horse motor from my pool pump and for around $100 it was fully refurbished and the trashed bearings replaced. The result is a motor that draws a lot less power and is quieter than when I first bought it.  Mike also cleaned up the chlorine addled outside, ran a test on a bench before I paid and left me with the good feeling you get when you get something done right first time by the guys that do the work, not sit behind a desk or counter and lie to you.
I hope never to have to go back, but I guess I will be seeing him again in a few years.
