Mobile mechanic in Northamptonshire, 5 years of experience

Mobile mechanic with 5 years in the trade specilising in evening and weekend repairs

“Mitchell was absolutely fantastic. His communication was spot on, he was extremely friendly and told me exactly what he was doing. He found a little bit more work that needed doing, but there was no pressure at all. He just offered some advice and said he was happy to carry out the additional work if I wanted him to, but there was no pressure to accept. Mitchell is young but very professional and knowledgeable. He carried out the work on a live road, and was very careful to make his work area safe for himself and others, placing flashing lights where needed. He took his time to get the job done correctly, even though the weather changed in the last hour. I would not hesitate to recommend Mitchell to anyone wanting repairs done. I will definitely be using him again, without doubt. He was great.”
