Reviews Summary

Customers consistently praise this garage for its friendly, welcoming staff, efficient turnaround times, and excellent value for money, with many noting they have been loyal customers for years and regularly recommend it to friends and family. Communication throughout the booking and servicing process is frequently highlighted as a particular strength. A small number of reviewers felt that explanations of advisory or fault details could be more thorough, and one customer mentioned that service books have occasionally not been stamped, so the garage may benefit from ensuring these finishing touches are reliably completed.

Reviews Summary

Customers consistently praise this garage for its friendly, professional staff, clear communication and competitive pricing across a wide range of work including MOTs, services and air conditioning regassing. The vast majority of reviewers highlight how promptly jobs are completed and how well they are kept informed throughout, with many noting they will return as loyal customers. A very small number of reviewers mentioned minor administrative points, such as invoices potentially benefiting from itemised parts costs and the occasional pricing discrepancy at the point of payment, but these are isolated observations that do little to detract from an overwhelmingly positive reputation.

Thank you for your feedback. We can confirm that everything included in the Full Service was carried out, and all the work completed was listed on your invoice. The measurements you mention, such as tyre tread depth, CO percentage and coolant density, are not routinely recorded on our invoices unless there is a specific issue or they require attention. The invoice therefore provides a record of the service items that were completed. We appreciate your comments and hope this clarifies the matter.

Customers consistently praise this garage for its friendly, trustworthy staff and efficient service, with many highlighting excellent value for money and the willingness to accommodate last-minute bookings. Communication is generally well regarded, though one reviewer noted that proactive updates during a lengthy repair could make the experience less stressful, suggesting the garage may benefit from more regular progress calls on longer jobs. A single reviewer also felt that parts pricing was on the high side and that the oil may not have been changed as expected, points worth bearing in mind, though these were isolated observations against an otherwise very positive picture.

We recognise the very best performing garages in your area with a Silver, Gold or Top Tier badge. These badges help you spot garages that deliver customer service that goes above and beyond for drivers, offering great value, high standards and satisfaction/high ratings.
We never ask for payment details upfront. Once you’ve chosen your garage, you deal with them directly from start to finish, paying only after the work is complete – giving you full peace of mind.

Some mobile technicians may request some commitment or payment upfront to cover the costs of them coming out to you.
Whether you need your car every day or simply want a hassle-free experience, our garages are here to make car care effortless. Where possible, they offer:

• Collection and delivery services
• Same- or next-day appointments

And with our comprehensive sort and filter options, we make it easy for you to choose the right garage, fast – whatever you or your car needs.
If your MOT expiry date is one more thing to worry about, you can opt-in to our free email reminder service when you check out. That way, you’ll get personalised reminders before next year’s test, ensuring you never forget another inspection.
Absolutely. True value looks different to everyone so, whether you want the nearest garage, the best-rated option or the lowest price, you can use the Sort By menu in the top-right corner to compare results by Price, Distance, Availability or Reviews - whatever matters most to you.
You can change your booking details right up until the appointment date. You’ll find instructions in the confirmation email you received or in your BookMyGarage account. Your chosen garage will contact you to acknowledge the amendment and re-confirm your booking.
