Frequently asked questions

What is a Mobile Mechanic?


A Mobile Mechanic will usually come to your house or place of work with the parts, and the tools, they need to fix or service your car then and there. Alternatively they may come to collect your car, repair it at their garage and then return it to you.

What repairs will a Mobile Mechanic perform?


Mobile Mechanics can perform the majority of repairs your car needs, including: servicing, brakes, cambelt changes and more. Some will also perform more heavy-duty work such as clutch repair / replacement.

Do I need to be at home during the repair or service?


No. Indeed, the main advantage of a Mobile Mechanic is convenience: you agree logistics (e.g. keys) with them, and carry on with your day as normal, with no need to drop off or collect your car.

Can Mobile Mechanics change a clutch?


Depending on the car and the mechanic, yes. Some clutches are easy-to-access. Others require hours of time underneath the car - harder for a Mobile Mechanic.

Is a Mobile Mechanic cheaper than a 'fixed' garage?


Mobile Mechanics are often cheaper than a fixed-premises garage, yes, due to lower overhead costs. However, note that we always advise drivers to choose a garage or mechanic based on both price AND reputation. If in doubt, read their latest reviews on FixMyCar.

What do I do if I need extra repairs that my Mobile Mechanic can't perform?


Not to worry! Many Mobile Mechanics will have access to a fixed-premises garage as well. If not, FixMyCar will put you in touch with another of their 7,500 garages nationwide.

Can Mobile Mechanics do MOTs?


Yes, some mobile mechanics will carry out MOTs. They will often collect the car from you, take it to a MOT bay to carry out the MOT and then drop it back after. However, this can be a costly excercise for the mechanic due to travel costs so many Mobile Mechanics do not offer this service.

What do Mobile Mechanics charge?


Just like fixed garages, Mobile Mechanics will charge you for their labour and for the parts they need to complete the service or repair. In some cases this is cheaper than a fixed premises due to less overheads, but they also must travel and so need to be compensated for that time too.

Can I trust a Mobile Mechanic?


Read reviews before choosing a mobile mechanic or garage. You can also ask to see insurance information. Be wary of a suspiciously low price, it will often be cheap parts being used which will ultimately fail within a couple of months.

Why are Plymouth mobile mechanics cheap?

Mobile car repair is a service offered by mechanics who may be able to offer a reduced price on car maintenance.

This is due to the fact that they do not have any overhead costs associated with running or owning a garage. Garage owners have to cover running costs and so the expenses are passed onto customers when paying for car repair.
