Our workshop
We operate our own in-house workshop facilities.
Our vehicles are all professionally maintained to the highest standards in our own fully equipped workshops by expertly trained mechanics. Our engineers have many years experience working on large passenger carrying vehicles, and are able to carry out all major and minor works including changing and rebuilding engines. We have three sets of vehicle lifts each capable of lifting a coach, we carry out our own regular brake tests on all vehicles and where computer diagnostics are required, the vehicles are sent to Main Dealers.
Our vehicles are all fully insured and are serviced monthly.
To maintain our high standards, we carefully follow the VOSA Guide to Maintaining Road Worthiness.
At the start of every day, our drivers carry out a Safety Check of each vehicle before they take it out. This check includes lights, tyres, wheel fixings and all related safety issues. If a defect is found, it is immediately reported to our Workshop Manager and is rectified immediately. To maintain our quality standards, regular audit checks are carried out by our Transport Manager.
Every six weeks, each vehicle spends a full day or more in our Engineering Facility for a full Safety Inspection, which is carried out by our Workshop Manager and his Team. We keep our Safety Inspection records, driver defect sheets and audit check sheets for 15 months, and all potential Customers are welcome to view them.
All of our vehicles have an annual PCV Test at a VOSA approved Testing Station.
