001 / How we work

Car battery replacement, tested before we sell.

The rule
You approve the price first. Every job, every time. The quote comes before the spanner.
The check
We test before we sell. Battery and charging system checked, so you only replace what is actually done.
The call
What’s urgent, what can wait, told straight. If it can wait, we say so. No padding the bill.
002 / What you get

What the battery test and replacement include.

Battery and charging test first. If the battery is done, we quote the right one for your car, fitted, old one disposed of, before any work. If it is the alternator or a cable, we tell you that instead. Book with BATTERY and we call you back with a time.

003 / In their words

Repairs, in their words.

“Joe was awesome to deal with. I had an unexpected coolant leak on a weekend, I called multiple mechanics around Brisbane and they wouldn’t help as it happened midday on a Saturday. Joe and the team were more than happy to take our car in and get it inspected, diagnosed and fixed in a timely manner. Thanks guys”

004 / Straight answers

Car battery questions, answered.

Is it the battery or the alternator?
That is the first thing we check, and it is why we test before we sell you anything. A battery that will not hold charge is one problem; an alternator that is not charging it is another, and a new battery will not fix that. The test takes minutes and you get a straight answer.
How much is a car battery replacement in Brisbane?
It depends on the size and the type your car needs. A small hatch and a diesel ute take very different batteries, and stop-start cars need an AGM or EFB battery, which costs more. We quote the right one for your car, fitted and the old one disposed of, before we touch it.
Do you do battery testing near me, and what does it cost?
Yes. The battery and charging system test takes minutes at Northgate and it is the first thing we do. If the battery is fine we tell you that; if it is done you get the price of the right one before it is fitted.
Can you come to me?
Yes, within 10 km of Northgate on weekdays, 8am to 3pm, from $229 for a mobile visit. Or drive in if the car starts, and it is done while you wait.
How long does a battery replacement take?
Fitting is about 30 minutes. Cars with stop-start need the new battery registered to the car, which we do as part of the job, so the charging system treats it correctly.
Where can I get a car battery replacement near me on the northside?
15 Edgar Street, Northgate, minutes from Nundah, Virginia, Banyo, Wavell Heights, Clayfield, Hendra, Ascot, Hamilton and Chermside. Mon to Fri, 8:00am to 5:00pm · Sat, 9:00am to 2:00pm.
