Tyre Breakdown Service
Our 24/7 tyre breakdown service provides rapid assistance for cars, commercial vehicles, and heavy machinery across the UK and Europe. Equipped with satellite-tracked mobile units, we minimise downtime by reaching customers quickly. Affiliated with ITDN and NTDA networks, we ensure nationwide and international support for all tyre-related emergencies.
MOT Testing
We offer Class IV & VII MOT testing at our state-of-the-art facility in Brentwood, funded by the European Agricultural Fund. Our process adheres to UK legal standards, covering brakes, emissions, lights, and structural integrity. With a focus on transparency, we provide free tyre checks alongside MOTs to ensure roadworthiness.
Wheel Alignment
Using Hunter 4-Wheel Alignment technology, we restore vehicle handling by adjusting steering and suspension to manufacturer specifications. Misalignment correction improves tyre longevity, fuel efficiency, and safety. Our technicians address wear patterns caused by potholes or kerb damage for all vehicle types.
Servicing and Repairs
From interim checks to full manufacturer-compliant services, we inspect brakes, fluids, and safety systems to maintain performance. Regular servicing preserves warranties and resale value. Our mechanics also handle electrical, exhaust, and brake repairs using quality parts for long-term reliability.
Air Con Re-gas
Our air con re-gas service restores cooling efficiency and demisting performance by replacing refrigerant and filters. We address reduced fuel economy and unpleasant odours caused by system leaks. Regular maintenance every two years ensures optimal climate control and engine efficiency for modern vehicles.
