About Us

J&B Enterprises was founded in 1997 by Bill and Jean Wayda.  Bill had worked at several Ford dealerships for over 15 years, and had always dreamed of opening his own independent shop. After witnessing the decline of dealership training standards and ethics in the late 90’s, he decided to follow through on his dream. He and his wife Jean decided to open J&B Enterprises, a full service repair shop just south of Merrill. in 2009, Bill’s son Zach joined the team, learning the the ropes in the shop and allowing Bill to focus on the front-of-house operations.  Now, after almost 30 years in business, Bill and Zach strive to provide some of best automotive repair in the Merrill area.  They focus on preventative maintenance, real, strategy-based diagnostics, and clean and complete work by “doing it right the first time.”
