When you step inside Joe Gaskells new garage on Skull House Lane in Appley Bridge (formerly the site of Ramsey Timber DIY Store) there is a quality feel about the place. The garage is spotlessly clean and is literally bristling with the latest technology in vehicle diagnostics and testing.

JW Gaskell Garage has been providing an honest, reliable and quality service at realistic prices to the residents of Appley Bridge and beyond for over 15 years. Formerly on Mill Lane, Joe and his team of three qualified mechanics and an apprentice moved to the Skull House Lane premises during the summer after a major refurbishment of the premises.

The new garage is over a third larger than the previous one, there is ample parking at the front for customer vehicles and the reception area, which features a leather chesterfield suite, together with drink and snack machines, has attracted many admiring comments. One customer found these surroundings so luxurious that he took a short nap while his vehicle was being MOT'd! The customer reception and waiting area overlooks the workshop providing an assurance that your vehicle is in safe hands and is being serviced professionally.

JW Gaskell can now proudly claim to be one of a handful of Bosch Service Centre in the area, a testament to their high standard of service and customer care. Bosch Car Service is a national network of garages that are small enough to offer real value, yet have the backing of Bosch, the worlds largest supplier of automotive parts and systems. Did you know that recent changes in the law that you no longer have to take your car back to the dealer for servicing to keep your warranty valid and that you can have it serviced at an authorized garage like JW Gaskell? Contact your warranty provider for details.

Gaskells is also an approved Delphi Davia Air Conditioning Centre as well as an MOT Test Centre for cars and goods vehicles up to 3500kg. You may not be aware that many garages offer MOT's as part of their range of services only to pass your vehicle on to an approved centre for testing. It is in this area in particular that Joe has invested heavily by installing by installing a one man test lane and ramp, which means that any one of his four MOT testers (including Joe himself) can carry out single-handedly a range of checks thereby improving the efficiency of the garage and speed of service.

So when your vehicle is due for its service or MOT entrust it to a team of professionals using the latest in automotive technology and at fair prices.
