Morningside questions, answered

Do you charge a callout fee?

A standard callout and diagnostic fee applies and is quoted upfront. It is credited against the repair when you accept the quote.

How fast can you get to me?

Emergency callouts are dispatched to the next available technician, with the arrival window confirmed by SMS when the vehicle leaves.

Do you top up gas without finding the leak?

No. A weighed charge into a leaking system is money out the window, so the leak is found and repaired first, then the system is evacuated and charged to the plated weight.

What does an annual service contract include?

Scheduled visits, priority response between visits, a written condition report per unit and fixed labour rates for the contract year.
