Why You Should Use BookMyGarage to Book the Best Car Service Near You
Comparing car services can be tough. Each garage offers different servicing options and their checklists often vary - even for the same service. This makes it hard to be sure you’re booking the best deal when you try and compare car service prices by ringing around garages.
On top of that, it's a time-consuming and stressful way to book a service.
BookMyGarage simplifies that process. We make it easy for you to book the best deal on an interim, full or major service near you. Every garage listed on our comparison site uses our industry-standard service schedule, so you can always compare their prices ‘like-for-like’. If you’re looking for the cheapest car service near you, this is the best way to make sure you book the best deal.
Plus, you get instant prices from dozens of garages near you all in one place. That makes the process so straightforward!
Our comparison tool doesn’t just show you car service prices, it also displays:
- Which industry qualifications the garages have
- Which schemes they are members of
- Real, unfiltered user reviews and ratings
- What other repairs the garages offer
- Which makes of cars they work on
- The proximity to your address (to help you find your closest garage)
- Any special deals and offers they provide
- Their opening times
- And more.
This allows you to make the most informed decision about your servicing options.
Why Should I Book a Car Service?
Regular maintenance is essential for keeping your car in good condition. Every vehicle suffers a certain level of wear and tear during normal use. If you don’t bother with car servicing, parts will deteriorate over time and lead to expensive repair bills and stressful breakdowns.
Book a car service today to prevent this. Not only will it help you save money in the long run, but catching problems early also allows you to complete the repairs on your terms. Rather than waiting until something breaks and struggling to find cheap car repairs near you, you can shop around, compare garages to find the best price and get the problem fixed whenever is convenient for you.
Not only that, but a full service history makes a vehicle more desirable when you look to sell it. In fact, your car could be worth up to 20% less if you don't have one.
A full service history proves to buyers that you have looked after your car, and that it is likely to be in better condition as a result. This gives them the confidence they need to pay the full value of your vehicle.
Which Car Service is Best For Me?
The best type of car service for you will depend on the specific circumstances involved, such as your car’s age and condition, the last time it was serviced and the number of miles that you drive on an annual basis.
See below to find out which type of car service will suit your requirements best.
