Engine trouble, gearbox faults, timing belts, head gaskets or suspension work. We handle the bigger jobs in-house with a clear quote first, and our own recovery trucks can bring the vehicle in.
Big repairs handled properly, with a clear quote first and free collection and delivery across Salisbury and surrounding towns.
Call us now on 01722 466654 to talk through your repair and get a quote.
When something serious goes wrong, you want a garage that explains the problem in plain English and gives you a price you can plan around. That is how we work. We diagnose the fault, talk you through the options and agree the cost before any spanners turn.
Our technicians carry out engine repairs, gearbox and clutch work, timing belt and chain replacements, head gaskets, cooling system repairs, turbo faults and suspension work on cars and light commercial vehicles. We use quality parts and road test every vehicle before it goes back.
Because we are also a recovery company, a vehicle that cannot be driven is not a problem. We will collect it from anywhere in Salisbury and around 20 miles out, including Romsey, Andover, Shaftesbury, Warminster and Ringwood, and deliver it home once repaired (terms and conditions apply).
If the MOT is due after a major repair, we will prepare the vehicle and arrange the test on your behalf, so you get it back fixed and fully road legal.
We collect your car from home or work and bring it back ready to drive (T&Cs apply).
Pre-MOT fixes done first, then we book and arrange the MOT on your behalf.
A clear quote before any work starts, quality parts and fully insured while in our care.
Areas we cover
Our workshop is at High Post, just north of Salisbury. Free collection and delivery covers these towns and the villages in between.
What customers say
“I broke down yesterday evening at 1730 with a snapped alternator belt, which meant the battery was completely drained a few hours later so my hazard lights went out leaving me stuck on the outside lane a few feet before a roundabout. The RAC had been called but quoted 4–5 hours. By 2330 and the RAC still quoting 3 hours to wait, I googled local breakdown assistance - FDC were with me in no time.”
“I was recovered home by James today! His estimated time was very accurate and he was very positive and engaging even on a hot Sunday when most people would rather be at the pub. Great service, thank you!”
“My heartfelt thanks to Dervin from FDC Recovery today. He went above and beyond whilst attending my broken-down van on a dangerous stretch of road. Thanks so much for your actions, you are a true superstar.”
“Great work and friendly service. Fast getting to me and fixed my van with no issues. Excellent customer support and great service. Highly recommend. Thanks James.”
