What your site will do
Built to fill the workshop diary
These are the features we usually build for garages and MOT centres. We'll recommend the ones that suit your business on our call – you only pay for what you need.
MOT & service booking
Customers choose the job and a preferred date and enter their reg – it comes to you to confirm, or into the garage software you already use.
See it in the demoClear prices
MOTs, interim and full services, diagnostics, tyres – with prices or 'from' prices so customers know what to expect.
Services & makes
What you repair, the makes you specialise in and whether you work on hybrids and EVs.
See it in the demoAccreditations & guarantees
Your MOT testing station details, trade scheme memberships and workmanship guarantee, shown clearly.
Courtesy cars & collection
Courtesy cars, collection and delivery, and the waiting area – the things that make you easier to choose.
Reviews & location
Real customer reviews, opening hours, a map and directions to the workshop.
Every site also includes: designed for phones first, we write the words, set up for Google with your Google Business Profile, SSL and spam protection.

What gets in the way for garages and MOT centres
Half the calls are “how much?”
MOTs, interim services and tyres are the questions you answer all day. Showing prices clearly means more of the calls you get are ready to book.
Customers remember their MOT at 10pm
Most people think about their car outside opening hours. A booking form lets them ask for a slot the moment they remember.
Main dealers look more established online
Customers often compare you with a main dealer. A professional site with your accreditations, guarantees and real reviews shows an independent can be just as reliable.

Why we cost less than a big agency
- Small team, low overheads. No city office or sales team. You pay for design and build time, nothing else.
- Proven parts, custom design. Booking, quote forms, menus and galleries are built and tested already, so our time goes on your design.
- Fixed scope. Set page counts and rounds of changes mean no open-ended hourly billing.
- A short brief, not workshops. A 15–20 minute questionnaire and one call replace weeks of discovery meetings.
What you don't get: brand strategy workshops, custom illustration or a dedicated account manager. If you need those, an agency is the right choice.
Four promises on every order
See your design before we build the rest
We design your homepage first and send you a private preview. If you don't love it after two rounds of changes, you can walk away and we refund your deposit in full.
Fixed price, agreed before any work starts
The price on our call is the price you pay. Anything extra is quoted in writing first and never started without your OK.
You own it – no lock-in
Your domain is registered in your name, and once the final payment is made the site is yours. Leave whenever you like and we'll hand over the files and help you move.
Live when we say
We agree a launch date once we have your brief. If we miss it through our own delay, your first 3 months of care plan are free – or £30 off your final invoice if you don't take one.

FAQ
Questions from garages and MOT centres
Can customers book an MOT online?
Yes. Professional includes online booking: customers choose the job and a date and enter their registration, and you confirm. If your garage software has its own online booking, we can link to it or embed it instead.
Can you show my MOT and trade accreditations?
Yes. We show your MOT testing station details, trade scheme memberships and any guarantee you offer, using scheme logos in line with their rules and linking to their directories where they have one.
Should I show prices for servicing and repairs?
Showing MOT and service prices, or 'from' prices, usually saves time on the phone. Repairs vary, so most garages show a guide and ask customers to request a quote. We'll suggest what suits you on our call.
I'm a mobile mechanic or valeter. Is that covered?
Yes. We'd focus your site on the areas you cover, a quote or booking form and your reviews. That often fits Essential.
How much does a website for garages and MOT centres cost?
Most garages need Professional: up to 8 pages with online MOT and service booking, reviews and a gallery. Mobile mechanics and valeters often fit Essential. Our prices are fixed: Starter £299 (up to 3 pages), Essential £549 (up to 5 pages), Professional £749 (up to 8 pages, including online booking and a gallery) and Premium from £999 (online ordering, payments and custom features). It's £0 to order: we call you to confirm the price in writing, then invoice a 50% deposit, with the other 50% due at launch. Hosting is on a monthly care plan from £10 a month, with no minimum term. No VAT to add – we're not VAT registered.
How long does it take?
Starter sites are usually live within a week of receiving your brief and photos, Essential in about 2 weeks and Professional in 2–3 weeks; Premium timelines are agreed together. We design your homepage first – if you're not happy after two rounds of changes, you can walk away and we refund your deposit in full. Once the final payment is made, the site is yours.
