Hey, I’m Carl a mobile mechanic. My work experience started when I left school at 16. since I really wanted to do something that I would enjoy. I found I had to work with my hands and so, finally, became a mechanic when I was 19 year old. I never did any training at college but rolled into a job at a Jaguar garage .I believe, being hands-on from the start really gave me an advantage over those guys who learned the trade in school, they’re more fitters in a way and don’t always find the faults in a car. I see myself as a technician; I have the diagnostic equipment and see very quickly what needs to be done.

About Clickmechanic: it can be difficult when being self-employed, sometimes lots of jobs come along, sometimes there’s nothing, so it’s good getting jobs through Clickmechanic.

Excellent work found the fault quickly and once fixed it was checked and double checked to make sure it was ok before he left

Booking was made and job was allocated to a mechanic swiftly.
Mechanic was very thorough in his checks and gave clear feedback .
This gave me reassurance that the vehicle was worth buying before I made the purchase.

I have just had Carl Gardner repair one of our fleet. Although a little late in arriving he was in full contact at all times explaining he was just picking up the parts! Carl was extremely pleasant and knew exactly what needed doing to the Van.

What a great Website and even better service!

Carl was very good. Unfortunately soft tops are not his area of expertise but he had sufficient knowledge to get the roof closed, which was the main thing.

Carl. He called 1 hour into the 2 hour slot to say he'll arrive in 30 mins....then turns up 50 mins later...go figure.

"Fixes" the problem, demands cash in hand (on top of payment online). 3 days later problems again....co-incidence?

When called, shows little interest, is rude, hangs up and then follows up with an insulting text. Classy.

This is definitely the guy to go to if you have spare money you want an viable alternative to flushing it down the loo. Same end result.
