About Overbridge Service Centre

Overbridge Service Centre is a family mechanical workshop at 108 Hutt Road in Petone, Lower Hutt. It is owned and run by husband and wife Matt and Stacey Crooks, and Matt is the fourth generation of the Crooks family to own the workshop. The website lists opening hours of Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 5pm. The workshop offers service packages, priced as at 2026: an essential service from $350, a standard service from $260 that includes an oil system flush, semi-synthetic oil, a long-life filter, a fuel system clean, brake cleaning and a report on faults, and a brake and performance check from $180. Oil beyond four litres, and special parts, cost extra. Wheel alignment, tyre replacement and wheel bearing work are also mentioned by customers.

Customers' views are mixed. One praised the team for fitting a space saver straight away during a tyre emergency on the motorway, so the customer could get to a meeting while the car was being sorted. Another said the work was good and the people were great. A third found the workshop arrogant and rude when they brought in a car for simple work, and said they would not return. Wheel alignment is the service most often mentioned. Petone is on the main route between Lower Hutt and Wellington, which makes the workshop an easy stop for people commuting along the Hutt Road.
