James W
I am an experienced mechanic and welder/fabricator with many years of hands-on experience repairing, servicing and diagnosing a wide range of vehicles, including cars, vans, light commercial vehicles and motorcycles. I carry out everything from routine servicing and brakes to complex engine repairs, engine replacements and advanced diagnostics.

My experience includes timing belt and timing chain replacement, clutch and gearbox replacement, turbochargers, suspension, steering, cooling systems, electrical fault finding, ABS diagnostics, DPF and emissions faults, engine management diagnostics and complete engine rebuilds.
I am confident using professional diagnostic equipment to identify and repair faults efficiently.

I have extensive experience working on Ford, Volkswagen, Land Rover/Range Rover, BMW, Renault, Honda and many other manufacturers. I have completed major repairs including timing chain replacement on modern diesel engines, clutch and hydraulic system repairs on commercial vehicles, motorcycle restoration, and custom fabrication work.

As a skilled MIG welder and fabricator, I also manufacture and repair metal components, carry out structural welding and fabricate bespoke parts when replacements are unavailable.

I take pride in diagnosing faults correctly the first time, carrying out repairs to a high standard and providing honest, reliable service. I am comfortable working independently on everything from routine maintenance to complex mechanical repairs and always aim to deliver professional workmanship and excellent customer service.

James managed to figure out the issue in the car straight away and this allowed for it to be fixed within a couple days. He is also very efficient at his work and would 100% recommend him to anyone that needs work done on their vehicle. I would be more than happy to have my vehicle checked by him anytime.
