“Extremely happy.
Simon, the mechanic who attended has visited before.
Upon first looking at the work to be done, he was uncertain as it seemed there may have been more to it than he would have been able to do at roadside. That said his persistence and patience won through and the job was successfully completed, all in a timely manner too.
Respectful of property and was good enough to let me know when he would be there ahead of his arrival. Very good service. Many thanks.”

Mobile mechanic specialist on diagnostic. Repair.parts replacement,maintenance of vehicle ,exhaust sistem gears box services,engine service

“I have never used a mobile service before and was slightly concerned as to how it would be. However I need not have worried as from the very beginning I found it very easy to navigate from completing the online form to the finished repair. Once I had been notified of who the mechanic would be I was kept informed of arrival time and what to expect. I also appreciated the fact that the payment would not be taken until the repair had been completed to my satisfaction.
My allocated mechanic was Alin, and prior to his visit I was able to see previous reviews of his work. On the day of the repair Alin called to let me know he was only 10 minutes away. He arrived at the specified time and began the work immediately. He obviously knew his way around my nissan qashqai as he completed the removal and replacement of the heater blowers in just over 1 hour. I had previously been told by several garages it would take at least a minimum of 3 hours. On completion Alin showed me photographs of each stage of the repair and asked me to check that I was happy to sign off on his work. He also pointed out one or two other minor issues he had found. I can honestly say I was very impressed with his polite manner and the skill and professionalism he had throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend him and if all the mechanics are as skilled and pleasant as Alin I will definately be using the service again for any future repairs.”
