Martin M
I completed my apprenticeship with Blox Services in London and subsequetly spent 13 years there before the business closed down. My move after Blox Services was to a well known security company called Securicor for around 5 years where I was fitting data tracking systems to the fleet of vehicles. I decided after this that I wanted to run my own business and did so and had the firm for around 6 years before selling the business. I worked at a Mercedes Benz dealership until 2006 then set-up again on my own calling the business Blox Services. The business is going from strength to strength and we have a great customer base of both commercial and domestic customers. With the vast range of customers it allows us to work on all makes and models of cars and also vans/lorries and any repair can pretty much taken on by us here at Blox Services and the team also specialise in auto electrics.

The mechanic did not turn up at times requested I phoned him to talk to him he turned up at 3.30pm with a new battery which was ment to be a Bosch as quoted for but was not it was a cheaper brand I then found that my ignition did not work after he had done the work and sprayed something into the ignition barrel for some unknown reason as this had nothing to do with the works

Reply from Martin:

Hi I phoned you this morning about your vehicle in which you asked for a battery replacement and did explain to you I would be with you about 4 pm which you agreed to. When I arrived to replacr you’re battrey the ingtion key was hard to turn in which i told you about I sprayed wd40 in the lock to free it off but the key and lock is worn which is a mechanical failure. As for the battrey a i said there was two choices one an excide the other was bosch the parts supplier only had a excide which is the same quality battrey and the same price with the same 3 year warranty it was not a cheap battrey. I even came back after leaving the vehicle and helped you with your vehicle. I don’t under stand your review Read more

Martin was excellent. Highly recommended. Appeared very thorough. Picked up a big fault with the vehicle that I would not have know about. Garage is now repairing.

Martin was fantastic, he gave me a quick accurate diagnosis to my vans loss of power problem, after I had spent ages online and under the bonnet and was none the wiser myself. He talked me through how to fix it myself, as I am keen to do vehicle maintenance myself. He even rang up the Mercedes parts supplier for me to check it was in stock and get me the trade price. I fixed it myself later that day and it's now running perfectly.

Martin was excellent. Did the work at short notice communicated excellently which was important as we could not be there and when he had finished let us know. We are more than pleased.

Two man crew turned up on time, having pre-checked what alternator I might have originally had installed in the car and got straight to work. Very happy with their hands-on attitude and even happier when the car started first time when they were finished!
