CARSTAR, North America’s largest network of independently owned and operated franchised collision repair facilities, is proud to announce the opening of CARSTAR Roper Road, located at 5260 75th Street NW, Edmonton, AB, T6E 6S3. 

 The 8,100 square foot, state-of-the-art facility is fully outfitted with industry-leading tools, including a Chief EZ Liner frame machine, 3D measuring system, Pro-Spot resistance welder, MIG welders, and an Axalta paint system. The centre currently offers high-quality collision repair services for all makes and models. Its skilled team includes four technicians with plans to expand to seven in the near future. Certification programs are also on the horizon as the location grows. 

“At CARSTAR Roper Road, we’re combining top-tier collision repair with a strong commitment to community values,” said Johnny Kloeckes, Owner of the Johnny K Group. “This location reflects our passion for quality service and our ongoing mission to give back. We’re proud to continue supporting causes close to our hearts, especially cystic fibrosis.” 

 The Johnny K Group has a longstanding legacy of community involvement, particularly in support of Cystic Fibrosis Canada, a cause they’ve championed for 26 years. During the recent holiday season, the team collected an impressive 200 kg of non-perishable food items, donated by Edmonton brokers, and contributed $800 to the Edmonton Food Bank. Johnny Kloeckes also stepped up as crew chief for the 2024 Red Bull Soapbox Race, where he built a skunk vehicle to race along 60 unique crafts, and fundraise for CF, raising over $4K. Additionally, Johnny continues to be a key participant in the annual CF Gala, where he helped raise more than $10,000 at the most recent event. 

“Johnny and his team continue to set the gold standard for what a CARSTAR franchise can be—passionate, professional, and deeply rooted in the community,” said Andrew Northrup, Zone Director, CARSTAR. “We are thrilled to welcome CARSTAR Roper Road as their seventh location.” 

 CARSTAR Roper Road marks the seventh location for the Johnny K Group, joining: CARSTAR Ellerslie, CARSTAR Edmonton South East,CARSTAR Express Edmonton South, CARSTAR Edmonton Mayfield, CARSTAR Edmonton Gateway, and CARSTAR Leduc North. 

 The team at CARSTAR Roper Road remains committed to giving back through charitable efforts and community involvement, with a continued focus on supporting CARSTAR’s long standing charity of choice, cystic fibrosis.
