Specialist service
Cylinder head reconditioning, in-house.
Precise, specialist machining not normally found at a service and repair garage. We are proud to offer it, with up-to-date equipment bought specifically for this side of the business.
Trade & public
Main dealers send their heads to us.
This service is normally aimed at the trade, and many garages in the area, including main dealers, have their cylinder head work carried out by us.
We welcome every customer, whether you enjoy DIY repairs, need advice, or your head gasket is being repaired at another garage. Why not insist that we do the machine work? We are competitively priced and have a fast turnaround.
Please contact us first to check that your cylinder head is compatible. 01506 822523
