About the House

A simple belief: people deserve repair services they can trust.

Veteran owned and operated, family driven — carrying forward the eight-decade legacy of Fipps and Sons Garage on Johns Island, for everyone from Kiawah to Charleston.

The handoff, in plain English.

Magic Marine & Automotive Solutions starts from a simple belief: people deserve repair services they can trust. Veteran owned and operated, family driven — dealership-level capability with the personal attention of a local, family-owned business.

As we grow, we are honored to carry forward the lifelong legacy of Fipps and Sons Garage — a name that served this community for eight decades. Our purpose is to preserve what made it meaningful, build on its foundation, and keep the trust it earned.

The standard doesn't stop at the repair bay. Through fleet and operational consulting, we help owners and businesses make informed decisions, improve reliability, and plan maintenance with confidence — for the vehicles, vessels, and equipment their families and teams depend on.
