Hullo! We want to share a quick update regarding our pricing.

As you’ve probably seen in the news, global oil supplies have been hitting some major speed bumps lately. Because we refuse to compromise on the quality of the ingredients we use, these rising global costs mean we have to adjust our prices slightly starting on the 1st of July.

This is never something we enjoy doing, but it’s better than going broke slowly.

We are so incredibly grateful for your support and understanding! If you have any questions at all, our DMs are always open.

A haiku that explains our holiday times:

Holiday rest calls,
Doors will close on the eighteeth,
Open on the fifth.

If you need work done before the holidays, book in now as we only have a few appointments left. Call the workshop now - (07) 3846 6036

Qld gonna Qld.

Just a heads up, it's pretty dern warm at the moment so when temperatures exceed 36°C in the workshop we move to light duties which can slow down the flow of work. Please be patient with us, we'll get the job done but not at the expense of our health/safety.

Seeing as there is a cyclone bearing down on SEQld, we wanted to let y'all know that we may not be able to open the workshop if we lose power or get cut-off by flood waters. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it, but we urge everyone to play it safe should conditions rapidly deteriorate. A big puddle on the road can do A LOT more damage than you think.

Due to ongoing inflation pressures, rising rent and operational costs, we will be adjusting our labour charge from the current rate to $150.00 as of January 1st 2025.

We understand that cost increases are never welcome news, and we want to assure you that this decision was made after careful consideration. But this is what is required if we don't want to slowly go broke.

This adjustment will enable us to continue as one of West End's longest operating, independent workshops with high standards of service and reliability that are the cornerstone of our business.

We greatly value your continued support and understanding. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this change, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Cheers, Simmo
