Handyman services in New Zealand

“I had tried to contact major brands regarding repair for a stone chip. but they were uninterested or unavailable. I rang City Auto Glass and they could see me straight away. Repair done on the spot less than 30 minutes. They Explained pros and cons of repair and gave advice going forward. Awesome staff, great service from a locally owned operator.”

“Curious about why I chose this mechanic? Just take a peek at the owner's response to a review by someone named Jacob Peterson. Like many, I comb through reviews, but what truly catches my eye is how businesses respond to criticism. The owner’s reply to Jacob was spot-on—direct, precise, and incredibly well-articulated. As a PhD researcher, I have a penchant for strong arguments and am always impressed by a well-crafted response. This one exceeded my expectations, convincing me I'd found the right place for my vehicle's Warrant of Fitness (WOF). Did I pass the WOF? Unfortunately, no sir. Still they get a 5 star rating. I am gonna get it soon though. Steve, smart, precise and talented mechanic, who also has an infectious smile, carefully explained the three reasons my car didn't make the cut: 1. My headlights need polishing, 2. My fog lights should be switched from LED to halogen, and 3. My rear number plate requires reinforcement. However, this meticulous attention to detail and their transparent honesty is exactly why I trust them. It’s not about making an extra buck—they're already quite busy. I wholeheartedly recommend them, and I've already spread the word within my community. So, if you notice the queue getting longer, remember that it's the quality that draws the crowd. Just as honey draws bees, their worth is undeniable!!”

“These guys were amazing, I had a problem with my brake rotors that popped up heading to Christchurch from Southland, a quick phone call to the Pit Stop in Dunedin and they squeezed us in. Replaced the rotors at an amazing price and had us back on the road highly recommend fantastic service.”

“Nathan and his team are fantastic. Sorted a blown fog light for me as well as figured out from my description of shuddering breaks, that the calipers needed changing. Great service, perspective, and attitude. Highly recommend!”

“DJ was super fast to respond to my request for sorting out the water pressure at my place, did some simple fixes to help me save money. Also provided advice and quote for gas installation. Very genuine and highly recommend.”

“In the middle of his busy schedule Lee was kind enough and repaired our tailgate lock problem with more than a fair price. Can't do anything but recommend him!”

“Graham was outstanding today. We had an issue with our car that was immediately looked at for us. This was between the Christmas and New Year period when he was already busy with other customers but managed to make time for us, explain what was wrong and the process to fix it, all within the hour for a very reasonable price. Outstanding service and lovely guy! Thanks so much Graham.”

“Great bunch of guys, turned up when they said they would, no nonsense assessment, no lofty promises of turnaround, gave us realistic expectation for repair time. They did not disappoint, went above and beyond and when the parts were available got the job done in a day and delivered back to us, when they said they would. I have no hesitation in recommending these guys. Thanks!”

“Excellent team who got my alignment done to a professional standard. Matt was a legend. Thanks guys.”

“Came here through a friend's referral after a horrible experience at another auto shop where they were trying to upsell me on getting unneeded servicing. Andy thoroughly checked my car and completed my WOF in 40 minutes. He was super honest and didn't try to sell me on any extra servicing. If you want an honest, reliable, trustworthy mechanic/autoshop, look no further! Will be coming here for future servicing from now on. Thank you Andy!”

“Extremely happy with my experience!!! i called on the day checking if they had any availability for wof cause i needed mines asap and he said i could come in the next 1 1/2 hour super happy with how fast and efficient he was :) My car has always had a issue with the spare tyre is the back not being bolted in and i always just took it out during wof checks but this time i forgot to and he went out of his way to find me a specific bolt to fit into my spare because if not i would have failed. He could have easily failed my car but he didn’t and i appreciated the effort and time he took for me to pass my wof. Extra $10 but i didn’t mind at all super happy as this is my first time passing my wof straight away with no issues you’ve got yourself a customer for life THANK YOU !!!”

“Fast service - they did my wof, fixed my breaks, my cooling system, my power steering problems - all while sitting in the nice cafe next door. than coming to get me when it's done. They have found some creative solutions to save me money, for example putting an external inexpensive switch for my overdrive near the dashboard, rather than trying to repair / replace the original switch built in the gear switching lever. honest good guys.”

“Been using Andrew, Jade and their team to service our fleet for the past few years and they are so easy to deal with. Always ensuring a quality service and their team is always friendly. If you need a new mechanic, look no further”

“Highly recommended!! I was given your phone number though a friend. Andy kept me well informed every step of way with the process of my truck. I will be now using Coatesville Motors for all my mechanical needs and recommending others your way. Thank you for going the extra mile it is much appreciated. Very happy customer!!”

“Dan, Shawn and the team at Mr Walker have been exceptional! Great communication, outstanding service and everyone's kind and nice to our staff and residents. 100% recommend!”

“Ryan is the most honest and humble mechanic I have ever met. Friendly, helpful and delivered 110% customer service!!! I will be going back for all my car repairs!! Thank you Ryan keep up the amazing work!!”

“Jason came out to see me at home to disable our car alarm after replacing the battery and losing the alarm key. Job was quick and reasonably priced. I called other places that quoted hundreds of dollars just for the call out fee not including disabling the alarm. Jason quoted $80 but only charged $60. Solid guy”

“Would not use any other mechanic, I use this company for either our fleet of work vans or our prestige euro cars over anyone else inciting the dealerships. Not a cost issue (not they they charge too much they are absolutely fair and reasonable) but the attention to detail and knowledge here is unmatched.”

“I came there for a repair and decided to get a service which was not much more. My machine appears like new and is a pleasure to work with. Thank you for the good work.”

“Had a great experience with them, recently done my Wof there was affordable. Note: take appointment before going there.”

“Great service, customer focused, and competitively priced. Don and Brad have been great. Very flexible and accommodating. Cheers guys.”

“Brought my car in for a diagnosis after an engine light. Had A+ experience more than once, highly recommend this place.”
