About Us
Steve’s Automotive was founded by Steve & Sylvia Booy in 1983. Steve and Sylvia were both born in Brampton, Ontario, and they were looking for an opportunity to start their own service facility. The automotive service market in Brampton was flooded, so they looked down the 401 corridor for a smaller and friendlier community. Woodstock was their first choice, and they haven’t looked back. Steve & Sylvia retired in 2015 and since then their 2 sons, Derek and Josh have taken over the business. In 2021, Derek and Josh moved operations from Juliana Drive over to a new 14,000 square foot building on Griffin Way. Today, Steve’s Automotive remains the premier automotive shop in Woodstock.
