Services

Being mobile enables me to attend to customers wherever they are around Devon. Sometimes, there's customers who are unable to get their vehicles or motors to the garage, so being able to go out to them rather than requiring them to come to the garage with whatever it is they need fixing, can be extremely convenient for a lot of people.

It could be that a customer has broken down and needs to get up and moving asap; being mobile allows me to get to them quickly and can give them the best chance of getting back on the road without having to call larger companies and in most cases helps them avoid paying a larger fee. 

Or, for some customers, they're just more comfortable having someone come right to their doorstep. Saving them the hassle of booking in during work or school hours. Being mobile enables me to come and fix problems at a time that suits you. No more having to book time off work to take your car to the garage or stressing about when you can do so. We can work around your schedule. 

This is just to state that it's not just the complicated jobs I take on, I'm happy to do general car repairs also.

It's easy to allow whatever garage you've taken your vehicle to to do the repairs straight away, but it's not always the most affordable... If your vehicle has failed it's MOT and you're looking to get yourself the best deal, the quickest way is not always the best. It's best to shop around if you're looking save.

What are the different types of car service?  

There are 3 main types of car service to choose from:  

Interim car service  

It’s recommended to get an interim service every 6 months or 6,000 miles that your car has driven - whichever comes sooner.  All services will include checking lights, brakes, tyres, steering, suspension and all fluid levels.

Full car service

  It’s recommended to get a full service every 12 months or 12,000 miles - whichever comes sooner.

Having a Car Diagnostic Computer that is compatible with most newer as well as most older vehicles is a quick and easy way to find the problem. If you're having trouble with your vehicle but you're not exactly sure what the problem is or where it is; the car diagnostic computer will give us some insight of what's going on, allowing us to get the problem fixed quicker. 

If you're in need of new tyres I can not only fit them but get them ordered in also. 

If you're simply after some advice about a problem you're experiencing with your vehicle or motor, feel free to get in contact and I'll be happy to help.
