“Great garage. Was late picking up my car but after my initial call, I was kept informed. My car was collected and the work carried out with the car being returned to me well after hours due to the owner working on due to needing to cover staff sickness, which he explained when I called in the morning.

Sickness can’t be helped, and the owner went above and beyond to complete the days work, and kept in touch throughout the day.

The work was a great standard, and the owner was extremely apologetic and friendly on the phone and in person.

Will definitely use again! :-)”
