Arvada’s trusted neighborhood shop becomes part of Colorado’s fastest-growing community-focused automotive group.
ARVADA, CO, December 19, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ — Relay Hill Auto has acquired Arvada Square Auto, expanding its footprint across metro Denver and strengthening its commitment to people-centered automotive care. Founded in 1984, Arvada Square Auto earned a loyal following for honest repairs and exceptional service. Under Relay Hill Auto, the shop will continue serving local residents with the same trusted technicians and transparent approach to maintenance and repair.
Shiju Thomas, CEO of Relay Hill Auto, stated, “Building community in the neighborhoods we serve and within our shops is our purpose. Arvada Square Auto represents that same commitment to character, integrity, and excellence.” He added, “Our growth is not about size, it is about impact—creating workplaces where people thrive and customers feel genuinely cared for.”
Earlier in 2025, the team celebrated Grady Ford’s 20-year anniversary with Arvada Square Auto. As a Service Advisor, he has consistently taken care of guests in Arvada and Wheat Ridge with friendly customer service, advanced automotive expertise, and consistent transparency. He welcomed the acquisition and stated, “We have always prioritized doing right by our customers and the community; the Relay Hill team has brought in new technologies like digital vehicle inspections that better prepare us to serve customers for the next 40 years!”
Up next, the Relay Hill leadership team plans to pursue a property renovation in 2026 with the support of Arvada Urban Renewal District and Arvada Economic Development Association. The intention is to modernize the aesthetics and function of the property which neighbors one of Denver’s most ambitious improvement projects, Ralston Creek Development.
The business and property acquisition aligns with Relay Hill Auto’s strategy of preserving local brands while elevating industry standards through training, ethics, and hospitality-grade service. Relay Hill now operates six shops across Denver, Lakewood, Westminster, and Arvada, including Advanced Transmission Center, Hotchkiss Auto Repair, and Applewood Auto Care. Each location remains locally managed and community driven.
Relay Hill Auto is a Colorado-based automotive enterprise founded on principles of integrity, education, and community engagement. Its mission is to merge technical excellence with a hospitality mindset, offering customers a trusted and welcoming auto service experience.
