Local repair services in Pontefract

“Needed to have the tracking checked on my car, called Reg Greenwood’s and asked for an appointment, they said that if I got there in the next 10 minutes they could fit me in between jobs. I went straight over and the tracking did need adjustment. I was shown the electronic calibration readouts and they were explained to me. They checked the mechanical side was all ok before making any adjustments. Problem sorted. Probably less than 30 minutes between my initial call and being back on the road. Great service from great staff. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. Highly recommended.”

“I can’t recommend these enough hand on heart couple of most honest people I’ve ever met. I’ve gone in with a dryer heating element thermostat fault query expecting to have to buy a brand-new element for over 30 quid, but instead was shown a secret Hotpoint hack for resetting one of the thermostats and fixing the fault. I can’t praise them enough for their fantastic customer service… thank you so much!!”

“Highly Recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently had the pleasure of visiting Shake, Rattle, and Roll, a soft play centre in Pontefract for a birthday party, and I must say that it was an absolutely fantastic experience. From the moment I stepped inside, I was greeted with friendly smiles from the owners and staff, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The décor of Shake, Rattle, and Roll is truly amazing. The attention to detail is evident throughout the play area, with vibrant colours, and carefully designed play structures. It creates a visually stimulating environment that instantly captivates children and sparks their imagination. I was particularly impressed with how well-maintained and clean everything was, ensuring a safe and hygienic environment for children to play. One aspect that stood out to me was the great price of admission. Shake, Rattle, and Roll offers excellent value for money, making it an affordable option for families looking for a fun day out, or children’s parties. With the reasonable pricing, parents can relax and enjoy the experience without worrying about breaking the bank. The food at Shake, Rattle, and Roll was also a pleasant surprise. The menu offered a variety of options, from kid-friendly meals to healthier choices for parents. The quality of the food was impressive, and the portions were generous. I appreciated the effort the staff put into catering to different dietary preferences and providing tasty and satisfying meals for everyone. What truly sets Shake, Rattle, and Roll apart, however, is the exceptional service provided by the owners and staff. They were incredibly attentive, ensuring the safety and enjoyment of all the children. The staff members were actively engaged, interacting with the kids, and encouraging them to explore and have fun. It was evident that they genuinely cared about the well-being of the children, creating a nurturing and inclusive environment for everyone. In conclusion, Shake, Rattle, and Roll in Pontefract is a soft play centre that truly stands out. With its friendly owners and staff, amazing décor, great pricing, and delicious food, it provides a memorable experience for families.

“Took my car in to get the air conditioning regassed. I asked if i could stay and wait around till the car is done. The friendly gentleman at the desk asked a colleague and he then said yes to me. We chatted about cars for a bit and then after a while he said my car is ready. Very polite and professional service.”

“Friendly knowledgeable staff. Let you know b4 if any work needs doing and price. Highly recommend x”

“Just wanted to say a huge thanks to Fairways Service Station in Ackworth for being so brilliant. 3 months ago my car had been into JCT 600 Castleford for its service inspection (sadly due to the kia warranty I have to do this). JCT told me that my brakes were red on their checklist and needed to be done ASAP or fail the next MOT. They quoted me a silly price so I decided to visit the guys at fairways to get a more realistic quote (which was very fair). Bare in mind the car is less than 3 years old and my 8 year old car is still on its first set of brakes. The Guys at Fairways checked the brakes and found that the rear wear was minimal and the front wear was more than OK for MOT and should last based on a normal persons driving a year to 18 months. I recently lost my job and a big bill before Christmas would have been a tough pill to swallow. THANK YOU FAIRWAYS It is great to know that good honest businesses still exist and I would recommend them to anyone currently being bent over by certain (and i know they are not all the same) corrupt dealerships. Thank you for being honest and fair, you chose not to do unnecessary work and be Awesome. Thank you.”

“Just wanted to say how helpful Dave was at the White Cat Garage. I was on a job from Bedford and my van decided to start making a loud humming sound,and as I had a long journey back I was concerned I may well break down. On the off chance I pulled into the garage to see if a mechanic could have a quick look ,bit cheeky I know but i was worried I might not make it back. Well,thank the lord for David,he had no hesitation in having a look and quickly put my mind at rest confirming it was the power steering fluid being low. He kindly topped it up for me which sorted the noise, and would'nt take any money. What a nice man thankyou again David for your help. Andy (Ford Transit Van)”

“COME HERE FIRST WHEN THE DPF LIGHT COMES ON!!!!!!! Highly recommend this place for sorting out your DPF properly first time round. I wasted a lot of money at other garages to “sort the DPF problem out” to find that it would only come back on again 4 months later. This place does the job and gets it professionally cleaned and a job done well and thorough. Richard was exceptional and found other problems on my car that other garages did not. He was very helpful and gives great advice on how to keep the DPF clear for the future. Will certainly come here from now on for full services on my car. They are the best, and Richard - Thank you so much again!!!!!!”

“Things are never quite as scary when you've got a best friends.”

“If i could give Motorcity 10 stars...i would. I was pretty much ripped off price wise at my previous garage and I was dubious to say the least when I decided one day to pop in. They were amazing and put my mind at rest within minutes. Reasonable and fair. They will not do anything without first talking to you, then, with permission will do the work and show you the part that was worn or whatever the problem. I can't praise them enough and I haven't been anywhere else for years....nor will I!. If you want an honest and reasonable garage...motorcity is for you. Don't miss out!.”

“I was recommended this garage after my grandad had bought his car from here. They got my car in same day I rang as I thought break pads had worn but then had a call to say my break pads were fine still basically new and it was just a build up of rust causing the screeching. The lovely men kindly cleaned my discs and resurfaced them and didn’t even charge for their time, didn’t try ripping me off or anything. Couldn’t recommend enough and will definitely return with anything else.”

“My screen washer pump had stopped working. My car needed a full service and it was due for its MOT. So I searched very carefully for a trusty garage, who would do a good job without ripping me off. West Yorkshire Autos came up trumps According to my survey and I wasn't disappointed. They collected my car, did a first class job and returned my car in a very courteous manner, presenting me with an extremely respectable bill for the work done. My research was right and I will definitely be using this company for any future work. Well pleased.”
