Memberships

Pay by the month,
not by the visit

Three tiers, one idea: a set number of bay hours included every month, paid up front, which works out well under the hourly rate. Anything past your included hours bills at the normal rate.

What your included hours cost

    The three tiers

    Included hours, then the normal rate

    Every tier works the same way. The only question is how many hours you want up front. Those hours belong to the month you paid for and do not carry into the next one — past them, the bay bills at the published rate like anyone else's.

    Break-even calculator

    Do the maths before you pay us

    Drag the hours you honestly expect to use in a month. If paying as you go wins, this thing will say so — we would rather you spent nothing than resented a subscription.

    6 hours / month

    A single brake job is about two hours. A clutch is closer to a full day. Count the hours you would really book, not the ones you hope to.

      Everything that changes

      The first column is what anyone gets without a membership — it is a real option and it stays on the table.

      Here is what each plan includes and roughly who it suits. Signing up is not online yet — for now it is a conversation at the counter.

      • Billed monthly Same date each month, once these are running.
      • Included hours Used within the month they belong to. They are not refunded in cash.
      • Cancel any time No notice period and no retention script.

      Not ready for one?

      Nothing on this page is required. The bays, the published rates and the calendar all work exactly the same without a membership — and the calculator will tell you when that is the cheaper answer.

      The plans and prices above are real and they are what we intend to charge. What is not ready is signing up for one on this website — that arrives when our booking system is upgraded to handle it.

      Until then, ask at the counter or call and we will set one up by hand.

      Membership questions

      The awkward ones, answered

      Everything else about the bays, the lifts and the rules is on the main FAQ.

      Read the full FAQ
      What happens to hours I don't use?

      They expire at the end of the month. Included hours belong to the month you paid for and do not stack up into a bank — so pick the tier that matches a normal month for you, not a busy one.

        While they last you can spend them on any booking: weekday morning, Friday night, Saturday, it makes no difference.

        Can I share it with someone else?

        A membership belongs to a person, not a household or a business — the rate and the banked hours follow whoever is named on the account.

          Bringing help is a separate thing and it is fine on every tier, membership or not: a second set of hands is the difference between a three-hour job and a five-hour one. Every helper signs the same waiver before they touch the car or the controls, and you will get a link to send them.

          How do I cancel?

          On this page. Scroll up to your membership panel, hit cancel, confirm. It takes effect immediately — there is no notice period and nobody will call you to ask why.

          Do included hours cover weekends and evenings?

          Yes. There is no members' surcharge for a Saturday and no blackout dates. An included hour is an included hour whenever you use it.

          What if I go over my included hours?

          Nothing is charged when you book. You settle at the shop for the time you actually used — the same as any other customer, just at your rate.

          Do I still have to book ahead?

          Yes — there are only four lifts and a membership does not reserve one. What it buys you is a longer horizon: you can see and take dates before anyone paying by the hour can.
