Handyman services in New Zealand

“Car was broken into and sent here by the insurance company. Every staff member I dealt with from start to finish was friendly and knowledgeable, making an otherwise inconvenient event into a very easy process. Happy with the time frame, communication, quality of work and the car even came back to me cleaner than it went in.”

“Amazing dedicated mechanic. Had the privilege of knowing Chris for some years now and no one else touches our cars. It is an honor to ask him to fix them, get warrants and keep us rolling with his experience and skill, service and advice. We consider Chris an expert, a specialist in his field and a friend. We go to no one else because we know he has always had our backs. Chris takes time for a chat as well because life isn't just oily hands and peoples cars.”

“I have just changed to Burgess Automotive after a few years of frustration at my previous provider and could not be happier. The dealings I’ve had here so far have been fantastic from Anita on the front desk to Jeremy who actually takes the time to explain what your vehicle needs and why in language a non mechanical person can understand. Thoroughly recommend their services.”

“Extremely recommend. Leon is very trustworthy, professional and helpful repairer. Price is fair. Will definitely come back and won't change other repairer.”

“I took my two cars to The Mechanics, one for a warrant and the other for major repairs to gearbox (which involved pulling out the motor). I am really pleased with the work done and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any repairs. Thanks guys.”

“I have been taking my vehicles to Garage One for a couple of years and I have never been disappointed with the service I receive. Most recently I have been trying to purchase a new car and so they have completed a number of pre-purchase inspections for me. Not only did they give me a detailed report but gave me their honest and expert opinion on what would be the best cars to look at for what my needs were. Ryan and the team are incredibly genuine and their customer service is excellent. They know their stuff, give good advice and are very accommodating with appointments, courtesy cars and follow up care and reminders. So grateful to have found such a good team to help with all my car needs.”

“This place was recommended to me by someone and it was my first time going here recently. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating. I put two vehicles in for warrents and in both cases they picked up things my old mechanic had missed. Simple repairs that have made both vehicles feel much smoother, safer and quieter on the road. Thank you for your great service.”

“I went to Yuriy today for a WOF based on his good reviews and I wasn't disappointed. He was polite, professional, running on time and didn't keep me waiting. He provided a much better service than the big providers (and I'd much rather support a good owner-operator). I will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Used Disraeli 3 times now for 2 different cars and have been fantastic each time! Friendly professional staff and very reasonably priced!”

“Joe talked me out of an expensive repair not once or twice, but three times, tightened a few screws for free and went out of his way to help me get my COF sorted. It's rare to find a trustworthy mechanic out in the wild but he's a legend. 10/10 would go there again any time.”

“Exceptional Service from Start to Finish! We recently had our daughter's car repaired at Rosiez Collision Repairs in Rolleston as part of an insurance claim, and I cannot speak highly enough of the experience. From the very first contact through to collecting the repaired vehicle, the team at Rosiez were simply outstanding. What impressed me most was their clear, concise, and compassionate communication. Every step of the process—right from the initial quote to the final repair—was explained thoroughly and professionally. They took the time to make sure we understood what was happening and what to expect, which made the entire experience so much less stressful. The staff were fantastic—friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful. On the day we brought the car in, one of the team even came out and helped park it for us when we weren't quite sure where to go. It’s small gestures like that which really show their commitment to going above and beyond for their customers. The admin team also deserves a special mention. They were incredibly well-organized and efficient, and the timely reminder text messages were a great touch—super helpful and appreciated! Rosiez truly made what could have been a stressful process smooth and seamless. Their customer service is second to none, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing vehicle repairs. Thank you, Rosiez team, for your outstanding work!”

“Dropped my ride on mower off, nice joker is Chris, said work should be done within a week”

“We came for a coolant flush after finding it was contaminated and paul gave us a call to say unfortunately it was oil and without a radiator replacement, it would damage the engine. We were heading on a trip the next day and paul and the team made sure it was completed and fixed same day. The cost came under what he initially estimated too which was great. All in all, lovely team and we left happy! Would recommend! Thanks guys!”

“Awesome place to deal with and great communication on how my vehicle was going. Good and fast”

“Cody and James were easy to talk with about any concern I had. And the fix went very smoothly with a back up one, planned if needed then done within the same week of the initial cylinder replacement. Thanks a lot.”

“Great, efficient, honest and affordable team - happy to take my Subaru and provide a WoF / Service and new brakes (spontenously, completed 2 hours later). Mechanics picked up a slight issue that was missed by my last mechanic - and provided easy fix. Will return for all my vehicle needs going forward”

“Raman at Johalz Garage is hands down one of the best mechanics I’ve ever dealt. Expert& professional, no upselling, no pressure – just honest, reliable service. If you want your car to be looked after really well, he’s the one to go to. Highly recommended!”

“Fast service and repaired my damaged strut in less than a minute. Will certainly be back with any more strut related issues. Thank you strut power”

“Chas was brilliant and really accommodating. Honest and forthright. Took a vehicle in for a pre-purchase inspection. He did a thorough look through, talked me through his process, and identified some minor rust in a few places and the day I finalized the sale had me in and sorted it. Quick, easy, and exactly what he said he could do. Can't recommend him enough for your vehicle needs.”
