How we keep jobs to one visit
- ETAs are given from the engineer's actual position, not from a call centre average.
- If we are going to be late, you get a call — not silence.
- Genuine 24/7 — nights, weekends, Christmas Day, New Year — same price as daytime
- On a emergency jumpstart the equipment is matched to the vehicle — cranking current, terminal layout and battery location all change the approach.
Response time questions
Q.Is there a fee for a faster response?
No priority surcharge. Emergency and roadside jobs are prioritised by risk, not by payment.
Q.Do you carry batteries or come back later?
Stock is on the van, covering standard flooded, EFB and AGM in the common sizes, so most jobs complete on the first visit.
Q.Do you cover Netherton and the DY2 area for this?
Yes. Netherton is inside our routine coverage from Oldbury via A461, roughly 2 miles from Dudley. We cover it alongside Dudley and the surrounding streets.
Q.Is there a night surcharge?
No. Same price at 3am as at 3pm. We think surcharging people who are already stranded is bad business.
Q.What if my car is in a locked car park overnight?
Tell us on the call — usually a security guard or manager can let us in. We've done this in NCPs, hospital car parks and industrial estates dozens of times.
Q.What is a realistic ETA for Netherton?
Typically 45–60 minutes in normal traffic, quicker off-peak, longer if we are mid-job when you call. You get an honest figure on the phone.
