As a woman who isn't particularly knowledgeable about cars (personally), I've unfortunately had some bad experiences in the past where I felt taken advantage of. That's why I am so incredibly grateful to have found Chandos Auto's! From the moment I walked in, Sarah and Paul were not only welcoming but also transparent with their pricing. They took the time to explain exactly what needed to be done to my car, why it was necessary, and what the costs would be upfront. Their kindness, honesty, and professionalism made me feel confident in their work, and I can’t express how much peace of mind it gives me to know I have a mechanic I can trust and now have as my regular mechanic. I wholeheartedly recommend Chandos Auto's to anyone looking for reliable, honest car service.
Thank you again, Sarah and Paul! My car is running beautifully. :)

Very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Explained the work that they performed on my car to me and answered any questions I had. No hidden costs along the way, as I was called and asked prior to anything unexpected being done so I could decide how to proceed. Thank you, I will be returning next service.

Best guys ever, needed an inspection done because I was having trouble finding an issue, multiple people/places couldn't but this place had found my problem in 15 minutes. Everyone was kind and friendly, 11/10 service!

I can’t say enough good things about these folks!! I had one day to get 3 days worth of stuff done and they smashed it for me cheaper than I was quoted else where. And they did it while being extremely kind and polite.

Life had thrown massive curveballs and to top it off, I had my elderly fathers car transferred into my name. Original mechanic sick, booked in a panic to another who did not turn up. Last day to keep registration ( I had been waiting for original mechanic- my fault). I rang Chandos and these guys squeezed us in. They were already busy. They were kind, professional, upfront and honest. I will definitely go back to these guys. Very happy. A massive Thankyou
