Estimates:
An estimate given for the repair shall be provisional and will be subject to variations in the price of parts or materials between the date of estimate and the date of repair. It will also depend on further work or parts which are found to be necessary. A charge may be made for an estimate.

​
Uncollected Goods:
The repairer may exercise his rights as regards uncollected goods under the Torts (Interference with Goods) Act 1977 and if the goods are not collected when the work is completed, or before any notice to that effect expires, the repairer may proceed to sell the goods subject to any notice under the Act,

Whereby agreement with, or on the instructions of the customer, the vehicle is left outside the repairer’s premises, before or after normal business hours, on the unfenced part of the said premises, any risk or loss or damage however so occasioned will be the customer’s responsibility.
Wheels:
For work that has involved loosening or removal of any wheel(s) it is strongly recommended that the wheel nuts of the wheel(s) are check after approximately 50 miles to ensure they have settled correctly and remained at the correct torque setting. If you are uncertain, please contact us.
