Meet the Butte Valley Automotive Team

We are Josh and Samantha Hardesty, the proud co-founders of Butte Valley Automotive. Our journey, like the roads we navigate every day, has been a mix of twists, turns, and transformative moments that led us to where we are today.


With a solid foundation of experience as a Certified Ford dealer technician, I've spent years mastering the intricacies of automotive mechanics. My dedication to quality service and my passion for all things automotive have been the driving forces behind my professional journey.


In 2016, my personal life intersected with my professional one as I found myself in Butte County seeking a fresh start and a path toward sobriety. Little did I know that this journey of healing and renewal would sow the seeds of inspiration for what would become Butte Valley Automotive. Over the span of seven years, the vision for our auto repair establishment grew and evolved, guided by the principles we hold dear.

Transparency, integrity, and honesty form the cornerstone of Butte Valley Automotive. In a world where trust can be hard to come by, we're committed to being a beacon of reliability for our customers. We believe in keeping you informed every step of the way, offering transparent communication about your vehicle's needs and the solutions we provide. No smoke and mirrors, no hidden agendas – just a commitment to openness and straightforwardness.

Butte Valley Automotive is more than just a business venture for us; it's a labor of love and a testament to the values we hold dear. We understand the importance of second chances, and we're here to not only fix vehicles but also provide individuals with an opportunity to regain control and find a renewed sense of purpose.

With each repair, we merge our technical expertise with a personal journey of growth and resilience. Our story is a testament to the transformative power of challenges, and we're committed to sharing that strength with the Butte County community.

We extend our gratitude for considering Butte Valley Automotive for your vehicle needs. When you choose us, you're choosing a partnership built on transparency, integrity, and honesty – the same values that have guided our journey from the very beginning.

Thank you for being a part of our story!
