On-street parking, wet weather and wear you cannot see
Many homes in Hartshill rely on street parking, which means the car lives outdoors through every kind of weather. Rain, frost and falling leaves take a quiet toll on batteries, wiper blades, lights and brake components, and those are exactly the things you only notice once they stop working properly. A service is the chance to catch them early.
A service can be booked at interim, full or major level, and we can arrange it alongside an MOT at one appointment if the date is close. The inspection is thorough and the explanation clear. Should we recommend further repairs, they are only carried out after you authorise them, and we keep you informed throughout.
A car parked out in all weathers faces a tougher time than one kept in a garage. Damp gets into connectors, battery terminals gather corrosion, and wipers and washer jets clog or split. Lights lose clarity, and brake discs can rust quickly after rain and cold nights. A full service covers all of these, including the electrics, fluids, exhaust, wheels and tyres, so the car heads into winter in better shape. Hartshill is among the closest areas to us, only 2 miles from Salem Street, so booking a service is not a big disruption.
Servicing follows your vehicle, its mileage and its manufacturer schedule rather than a one-size checklist.

Ask for a proper look at the battery, lights, wipers and brake components, because outdoor parking exposes them to damp and cold. A full service includes these, and we report on anything that looks tired. Extra work needs your approval first.
Yes. We test MOTs as well as service cars, so the two can share an appointment. Any repair the test highlights is explained first, and the choice to proceed stays with you. Ring to arrange it.
A full service is generally suggested each year, while an interim often suits heavier use. Your maker's schedule takes priority over any general rule, so check the handbook or ask us to look at the car's records.
