Fantastic
My partner and I have been going to them for a couple of years after a recommendation from a friend! They have always been friendly, helpful and very reasonable. Won’t go anywhere else now!

Excellent service
I have been having my MOT and service with TLC for a number of years and they always provide a reliable and professional service.
My car is over 14 years old and a few times I have had to take the car in to check something or for reassurance. The team are so friendly and helpful and always explain what is happening and what needs to be done in non technical language. I always feel confident that they will only charge for work that needs to be done, and a couple of times there has been no charge if it has been a small job.
I recommend TLC to all my friends and family.

Trusted Reliable Hidden Gem of a Garage
Excellent and solved a problem that several other garages couldn't and they did it same day and reasonably priced as well. I need to use them more as the service has been first class the two occasions I've used them now. Would heartily recommend them to anyone oh and the online booking system is perfect to get the time slot that suits as well

Best garage around
Best garage around! Fit me in even when they were already fully booked to accommodate me going on a trip in only a few days and making my car safe for my children to be in. Honest mechanics that never have overcharged and always talk me through everything. Thanks so much TLC!

A1 service
A1 service. Can't fault this garage. I needed an urgent repair to my car to replace a water pump and despite being fully booked they managed to fit me in. Will always use their services and recommend to others. Thanks Chris.
