Transparent Pricing
No Surprises. Ever.
We quote before we start. What you see below are our standard labour rates. Parts are always quoted separately and approved by you before we proceed.
These are indicative rates. Your exact quote depends on your vehicle make, model, and the specific parts required. We provide a written quote on-site before starting any work. You never pay more than what was quoted.
Labour & Call-Out Rates
| Service | Rate |
|---|---|
| Standard Labour Rate | R950 / hour |
| Emergency Call-Out Fee | R950 / hour |
| After-Hours (after 18:00 / weekends) | +R1250 surcharge |
Emergency call-out: hourly rate starts immediately once the mechanic is dispatched. A 75% deposit is required before work begins on scheduled services.
