Reliable service mile after mile

Paulin’s Tire and Auto Service goes the extra mile so you don’t have to. When you need a tire store or car repair shop in Portland, South Portland, Scarborough, Arundel, or Saco, visit your nearest location for prompt and friendly service.

In 2001 Mark Paulin had a vision of what he thought would be a solid business model for the tire and auto repair industry. He first settled in the small town of Arundel and began his journey of choosing people over profit. Mark’s team offers great customer service and honest values to their growing clientele.

After being in business for 10 years he had an opportunity to expand into the big city of Portland. The expansion happened after the crash of 2008, when the economic impact on small businesses was heavy. The Paulin‘s team persevered and during that time opened up two more locations, one in Portland and one in South Portland. “The business growth was tremendous,” owner Mark Paulin said. “We brought our small town values of doing business into the larger city markets. People weren’t sure how to handle us at first, they thought we were too nice”. Paulin’s reliability and customer care made life-long customers.

The stores go the extra mile by offering quality, pre-owned vehicles at affordable prices. Paulin’s has its customers covered. Over the years they grew the Paulin’s brand. In 2018, they purchased their fifth location in the city of Saco. Interestingly enough by the time this article is published they will have opened up their sixth location in Scarborough. Besides their vast knowledge of tires and auto repair, Paulin’s Tire and Auto has found much success in offering fluid film under coating as well as becoming a dealer for the intoxalock systems.

“We are a bit of a dinosaur in the industry,” Mark said. “There are businesses that just sell tires and there are businesses that just do auto repair. It’s a rare when you find businesses that can do both very well, and that has been the recipe for our success“. Mark Paulin has been married to his wife Meesha for 20 years. Throughout his life, Mark has enjoyed coaching football, basketball and baseball. He has three sons in college and one senior in high school. “ It’s been a great ride,” Mark recalls. “I truly enjoy the relationships we have with our customers and our employees. I wouldn’t want to do anything else in the world than what I’m doing.”
