Our story
What we stand for
We know that one of the biggest inconveniences in our busy lives is when our vehicles aren’t working for us. Our mission since day 1 has been to provide people with the peace of mind to not have any guess work when it comes to keeping their car’s healthy, and safe on the road every day. This is what we’ve been striving for every day for the last 8 years. We want you to know that when we look at your car and tell you something is in need of repair, it’s not just because the manufacturer gave us some arbitrary number to follow, or we are too lazy to find the root cause of an issue. We repair things correctly, and completely in order that you don’t have to question if you car will be safe for the foreseeable future.
This entire goal has come from helping people in all walks of life to make sure their cars stay on the road rather than in the shop for as long as possible.
The people we work for have no question in their minds if we are doing things correctly, or if we are asking them to repair things that aren’t actually broke. We live and work with a longevity mindset, let’s keep your car out on the road as long as we can, because who enjoys the game of trying to find a new car?

Welcome to Roots Shop, a family owned and operated auto shop since 2017.Owned by 2 brothers, Jon Root and Noah Root,
Our journey started alongside a ministry (We Experience Community), right in Colorado Springs. Jon then took his expertise in the mechanic world, and his heart for serving people and turned it into his own little shop right in his own home. The ministry stemmed from intervening for single moms, hurting families, and the neighbors around us. We wanted to be advocates for people without technical knowledge of their cars. Jon never did a single bit of advertising, or promotion. He simply was a humble servant for the community around him. Word spread quickly, and we quickly became busy enough to be scheduling work 2 or even 3 weeks out. We then had an amazing opportunity to move the shop up to a piece of property in Monument, CO. We have been so blessed by our amazing neighbors, and family members that make this whole operation happen. We now work full time out of our 2 bay shop (converted barn), and continue to make improvements to this space to make it more suitable for a full blown auto shop. We know that this place won’t fit us forever, so please join us in this wild journey of cars, service, and adventures.

FOUNDERJon is a mechanic, yes, but he would tell you that most of all he is a servant to the community around him.
Jon went to trade school for heavy diesel mechanics, graduated with a handful of certifications, and a degree in HD mechanics. He then spent a year working on boats at Lake Powell where he learned so many skills in the watercraft industry. He then returned home and started working on cars through our family’s ministry (WEC). As the ministry evolved, Jon took on all of the tangible projects for them (mainly auto mechanics).
Jon’s heart is truly for the ministry within this business. He wants to see people blessed by the work we do here. Not just working on cars, but truly trying to bless people through the opportunity of a broken vehicle.
