Handyman services in Edinburgh

“Whilst holidaying at a local campsite we had a warning light appear while driving. Rang this garage and was told drop the car in as soon as we could. The vehicle was diagnosed and repaired within an hour. Very helpful and told us of the nearby retail park(15mins walk) to go to while work was being carried out. Vehicle is back on the road and we are again enjoying our holiday. Highly recommend!!”

“Personal service and expertise in all things SAAB. After being let down by my local garage, I booked my 9000 in here. It was clear on arrival that I was in the right place, as there were several other SAAB cars parked along the approach road. The owner, Martin kept me updated on progress throughout and explained things in detail. Open and honest about what needed done and the cost was reasonable too. It is a bit off the beaten track, but well worth the trip if you have a SAAB in need of repair.”
