It sounds like you want to do an exact string match, and not a text match, so I don't think there's anything complex you'd need to do... just store the field with "car repair" as type="string" and do all of the literal searches you want. But if you are working off a field that contains something beyond the exact match of what you want to search for, you'll just need to define a new field type and use only the analysis filters that you need, and you'll have to think more about what you need if that's the case.
