What Affects the Price
Vehicle Make and Model
Parts cost and labour time vary between vehicles — a larger engine or a less common model can affect the final price.
Parts Required
Quoted service prices exclude the cost of replacement parts unless stated. We always confirm parts pricing with you first.
Condition on the Day
A published price is a starting estimate. If our technician finds extra work needed once on-site, we'll always get your authorisation first.
Access and Notice
Cancelling with less than 12 hours' notice, or if we can't access your vehicle through no fault of our own, may incur an additional fee of up to £40.
Call-Out Fee
A £45 call-out fee applies to every job, on top of the service price, to cover technician travel and dispatch to your location.
What's Covered by the Price
- All prices are stated in pounds sterling (GBP) and inclusive of VAT where applicable
- Parts we supply carry a 3-month parts-and-labour warranty from the date of fitting
- We accept cash, bank transfer, and card payments, due on completion of the service
- We'll always seek your authorisation before any work that materially exceeds the quoted estimate
- Nothing above applies to MOT testing, wheel alignment, mobile tyre fitting, or alloy wheel refurbishment — we don't offer these services
Pricing FAQs
How much does a mobile mechanic cost in London?
It depends on the job. Our published starting prices are £45 for a diagnostic check, £95 for an interim service, £180 for a full major service, £85 for brake pads, £75 for a battery replacement, and £120 for a pre-purchase inspection. A £45 call-out fee applies to every job, in addition to these prices. These are indicative prices — we always confirm the final price with you before any work begins.
What affects the price?
The main factors are the type of work, the parts required, your vehicle's make and model, and how long the job takes once our technician is on-site and can see the car in person. Quoted prices are estimates — the final price may vary based on the actual condition of the vehicle and parts needed.
Do you charge a callout fee?
Yes — a £45 call-out fee applies to every job, in addition to the service price, and covers technician travel and dispatch to your location. Separately, if you cancel with less than 12 hours' notice, or our technician cannot access the vehicle through no fault of our own, an additional fee of up to £40 may also apply to cover travel and scheduling costs.
Are your prices negotiable?
Our published prices reflect fair, fixed rates for standard jobs. We won't inflate a quote once we're on-site, and we always seek your authorisation before any work that would exceed the original estimate. All prices are in GBP and inclusive of VAT where applicable.
