The company are insurance approved and recover, repair, service and MOT vehicles for the local community including work for the local County Council plus other local garages and fleet owners.

There are six recovery vehicles on call twenty four hours a day every day of the year and the company are ISO 9001 accredited plus PAS 43 which allows them to work on the roadside offering assistance and recovery to all types of vehicles including commercials.
