Repairs
We handle complete mechanical repairs including brake work, transmission repairs, fuel systems, and electrical issues. Our technicians work with all vehicle makes and can recommend trusted bodywork specialists when needed. We use modern diagnostic equipment for accurate fault finding.
Welding
Our specialist welding service covers chassis repairs, floor panels, suspension mounts, and wheel arches. Using modern MIG welders, we meet latest MOT standards for safety and legality. We handle both small patches and large fabrications for all vehicle types.
Exhausts
We provide complete exhaust system replacements from silencers to full systems. Our services address MOT failures caused by faulty exhausts while preventing secondary component damage. We offer practical assessments of repair viability versus replacement costs.

Report
I don't normally leave reviews but had to share my recent experience with AP Servicing. The clutch on my car went suddenly so I was pretty stuck on going anywhere outside the village. I rang around and was looking at least 3-4 weeks until a garage could fit the work in, until I came across Andy at AP Servicing. He went above and beyond to get me back on the road within a week, even working late into the evenings. He even spent time showing me the parts and explaining what was wrong with the car. I coudn't have come across a nicer and more genuine person, and will definitely use AP Servicing for

Report
My car fob battery failed - it was nearly 6pm on a Friday evening. I was luckily close by so called the garage, and Andy walked over to me and helped me get back into my car. He did not have to do this, so very thankful indeed.

Andy has been servicing my cars for over 5 years and does a first class job. Great guy to deal with and nice to be able to talk directly to the man doing the work.
