A family-owned workshop on Hillside Road in Caversham, Dunedin, run by Andrew and Kim Peet, who bought it in 2005. Andrew has been a qualified mechanic since 1993, and Kim runs the business side. The workshop handles Warrant of Fitness tests for cars, motorbikes, trailers and caravans, mechanical repairs, vehicle servicing, brakes and clutches, transmission servicing and pre-purchase inspections. It also fits and balances new tyres, rotates tyres, repairs punctures and offers free battery testing. The business is a member of the Motor Trade Association and is approved by Work and Income New Zealand, so it provides free, confidential quotes for WINZ-approved work. It holds a Waste Disposal Certificate of Assurance for its automotive waste.
The workshop offers a free pick-up and drop-off service for inspections and repairs, and a courtesy car is available. It is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and the phone is 03 455 4116. Customers come from Caversham, South Dunedin, St Clair and Mornington, and from further afield, including North Dunedin, Mosgiel and Outram. The owners say the workshop was run for 18 years before they bought it, which makes the business more than 30 years old in total, and Andrew will not release a vehicle that has not been done properly.
