Ethan Goldberg2025-03-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service. Managed to get my car back on the road after water damage and having lots of people look at it. Thank you! Heather2025-02-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shannon was an amazing, he carried out the work on my car which was replacing my car window regulator. He was super quick and very professional. I would definitely recommend him and I myself will use him in the future if I need to. Thanks again Shannon and SP88. Bryan Anderson2025-02-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a problem with the headlights full beam on my Honda Jazz and needed a mobile auto-electrician. SP88 looked to meet that. Shannon came to do the job. He identified what the issue was and specified the part so I could order and collect it from Honda. In session 2 he fitted the part and demonstrated to me that the lights were now fully working. Shannon is a skilled operator. He explained matters in layman’s terms and was very easy to talk with. I recommend him. Amanda Burrows2025-02-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Couldn’t recommend Shannon enough! Not only did he fix the issue (which we didn’t think could be fixed), he also made me feel safe and listened to which I really appreciated. Thanks a million Shannon! David Brown2025-02-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shannon sorted out a problem with my wife's very old Ford Focus. The instrument oanel had to be replaced. He was easy to deal with, very courteous and resolved the problem at a reasonable cost. Recommended for all auto electrics. Eddie Humphries2025-02-05Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an issue with my rear lights on my Audi A3, all were working but not in the right sequence eg, sidelights on no brake lights, DRL no rear lights but brake lights worked, headlights on no rear/brake lights, rear fog lights on no brake or sidelights!!! They had a mind of their own and I had no idea. After having 'work' carried out by 2 garages, 1 who replaced light clusters but with unable to solve my problem and admitted that 'this is beyond us mate', I contacted SP88. The young lady took my details and a brief outline of my problem and offered me an appointment which I accepted. Later that day the young lady contacted me to offer an new appointment 2 days days earlier due to a cancellation. Shannon the electrician phoned me prior to arriving to confirm his arrival time and was on time. I explained the problem and he got to work. Well, to say the guy has the patience of a saint is a big understatement, methodically working through the light clusters, onto the wiring and switches. Removing trim to gain access to places I didn't know existed and finding batches of wires, checking with his electrical equipment as he went. Onto the diagnostics machine with lots of input and readouts which went straight over my head. The bottom line was he found the fault and rectified it! Shannon was very professional and friendly and not once did he 'suck in air with a shake of the head' and 'tut', and everything was replaced and cleaned. The whole experience from my initial enquiry to the way I was dealt with in the booking process, to the followup contact and the actual work carried out, has been brilliant. Definitely recommend SP88 and I will have no hesitation in using them again, plus, and a big plus, the bill was Very reasonable. Well done to all at SP88 and thank you Jack Lockwood2025-01-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
