Default shop for timing belt service in Northern VA/DC area?

Hi,
I just moved up to Ashburn, VA, and I'm trying to find a good shop to replace my timing belt. Unfortunately I have no garage and no tools with me, so I can't do much in the way of repairs myself. Does anyone have any recommendations on a garage who does this sort of thing well?

Also, I know I could save money by purchasing the parts online. However, all of the garages I've dealt with refuse to use customer-supplied parts. Is that universal, or are some places willing to just perform the install?

Thanks,
Andrew Reeves
