Frequently Asked Questions
Booking & Services
How do I book, and how do I get a price?
Everything starts on our booking page. Put in your registration and the postcode where the car is, then pick one of two things:
- Book a diagnostic assessment — for a fault you want Mike to find. It is an hour with the car: codes read, the fault found, and what it needs explained. You see the price and pick a time, and it goes straight into Mike's diary.
- Get a free quote — for everything else: a service, tyres, brakes, a clutch, a cambelt, a battery, suspension, MOT prep, or a car that won't start. Tell Mike what needs doing and he'll text you a price and the earliest date he can do it.
It takes a couple of minutes either way. If you would rather message, you can reach us on WhatsApp at 07526 216202, by email at mhbmechanic@gmail.com, or on Facebook.
