Home / Mobile mechanic in Kingsbury
Ten minutes from Kingsbury
Mobile mechanic in Kingsbury.
Kingsbury is mostly driveways, and a driveway is all I need. Servicing, diagnostics and repairs done outside your own house while the kettle's on — no garage drop-off, no courtesy car, no waiting room.
Driveway servicing, no ramp needed
Fixed prices up front
Diagnostics from £80
Local mechanic, NW9
A driveway in Kingsbury is as good as a ramp.
Most of Kingsbury is 1930s semis with a drive or a hardstanding at the front, which means a full service, a brake job or a diagnostic scan can happen at your house with the car in exactly the same position it was parked in last night.
I bring a trolley jack, axle stands, torque wrenches, the oil and filters and a full diagnostic scanner in the van. Nothing about the job is cut short because we're outdoors — the same checks, the same torque figures, the same stamped service record.
- Early-morning slots before the commute
- Service, brakes and diagnostics all done on the drive
- Old oil and parts taken away with me

The four jobs I do most around Kingsbury.
Cars that sit all week and then do short hops to Queensbury or Wembley wear in a very particular pattern.
Full services on the drive
Oil, oil filter, air and pollen filters, plugs where due, fluids, tyres and brakes checked, service book stamped. £150, parts included.
Knocks and clonks
Speed humps along Kingsbury Road and Church Lane finish off drop links, top mounts and bushes. I road-test, find which corner it is, then fit it the same visit where I can.
Brakes for the hills
Fryent Way and the hill down into Kingsbury work the fronts hard. Pads fitted with discs measured, and the handbrake set up properly afterwards.

Kingsbury questions
Straight answers.
Do you come out to Kingsbury the same day?
Often, yes. I'm based on Russell Road in NW9, a short run down the A4140 and Kingsbury Road, so Kingsbury is one of my closest areas. Morning calls usually get an afternoon slot.
Can you do a full service on my driveway?
Yes, and it's the job I do most in Kingsbury. £150 including the oil and filters for most cars, roughly 90 minutes to two hours, service book stamped at the end.
I only have on-street parking on Kingsbury Road. Is that a problem?
No. I work on the street all the time. I just need enough room to get the van near the car and a flat, safe spot to jack it up — I'll pick the safest end of the car if traffic is heavy.
My car has been standing for months. Where do you start?
With the battery, the fluids and the brakes, because standing cars corrode discs and flatten batteries first. I'll tell you what it needs to be safe now and what can wait a month.
Can you fit parts I've already bought?
Yes, I'll fit customer parts — but the guarantee then only covers my labour, not the part. If you'd rather I supply it, you get a price on the phone before I order anything.
