What we do

Most of what a garage does — and we come to you.

Quotes are given on the phone, on the car in front of us — not off a price list written for somebody else's motor.

  1. 01

    Servicing

    An oil and filter change through to a full service. We collect the car and bring it back.

    MOTs

    Collected, taken for its test, and brought back — that is how we have done them for years.

    Diagnostics

    Will not start, or does not seem right: fault-finding with the gear to read it properly.

How it works

Three steps, none of them a trip to a garage.

  1. Step 01

    Message or call

    Reg, postcode, and what the car is doing. A photo or a video of the noise helps.

  2. Step 02

    We come to you

    We come to you, at home or at work, and take the car from there — you stay where you are.

  3. Step 03

    Brought back done

    Returned to you when it is finished. If it needs a test station, we take it there and bring it back.

Who you are ringing

Middlesbrough, and out across the North East.

Questions

Before you ring.

Do you come to me?

Yes. We collect the car from home or work and bring it back when it is done — and if it will not start, we come out to it. Around Middlesbrough and out across the North East.

Can you do my MOT?

We collect the car, take it for its test and bring it back — we have done MOTs that way for years. The test itself has to happen at an approved station; ring and we will arrange it.

What does it cost?

Ring and ask. Prices depend on the car and the job, so we quote on the phone rather than publishing a list written for somebody else’s motor.

What do you need from me?

The registration, your postcode, and what the car is doing. A photo or a short video of the noise helps.

How do I book?

Call 07876 283366 or send a WhatsApp to Dave. Hours are on this page, seven days.
