About Us


I completed my apprenticeship as a motorcycle and car technician in 1994. The workshops I gravitated towards were more engineering style workshops with good machinery and diagnostic equipment. I moved to a garage in 2007 that also repaired motorhomes and caravans which is where I was first introduced to the habitation side.
Regular vehicle work would have been:-
Engine overhauls
Rebore and head skims
Drilling and helicoiling threads
Lathe work
Oscilloscope diagnostics
Engine electrical and electronic diagnosis (not to component level)
Land Rover V8 gas conversaions
MIG welding and brazing
Alarm and tracker fitting
Air conditioning diagnostics and repair
Motorcycle chassis performance tuning for the track
MOT testing
MOT repairs
Brake repairs
Cambelt replacement
Brake pipes
Clutch replacement
Old style points timing
I have worked on many types of vehicles including 7.5 ton trucks, canal boats, light aircraft, motorcycles, cars, vans, Busses, fork lift trucks, tractors and of course caravans and motorhomes. I can apply my skills and knowledge to many things.
I have completed 3 house renovations by myself which included fitting ring mains and fuse boxes, new central heating system from scratch, plaser boarding, tiling, window and door replacement etc.
