I brought my car to Alan for him to tell me that I didn’t actually need parts that another mechanic told me I needed. He knows what he’s talking about and is very honest, reliable and an incredibly nice person to deal with. Will be returning and recommending to friends.

Got my car serviced and a few other bits done as NCT was well overdue. Alan done a super job and passed. Highly recommend him, even the NCT tester noted the quality of the work done on the car.

I found these guys a few years ago and been going there since whenever something crops up. They go the extra mile and the staff have always been friendly and helpful. Highly recommend these guys if you’re looking for a safe pair of hands and good value for money.

We'll get you moving.

Day or night, rain or shine. Fully insured flatbed recovery across Meath, Louth, Dublin, Westmeath and Cavan, plus nationwide transport.

Quoted first. Then fixed.

Alan Dawson built this business on one idea: do the job right, explain it straight, and charge what was quoted. It is why every one of our Google reviews is five stars, and why the same vans keep coming back.

The workshop takes every make and model, from daily cars to working vans, with the latest Launch diagnostic equipment to find faults fast. And because we run our own recovery truck, a breakdown never leaves you waiting on a third party.

From the first call to the keys back.

01

Call or book

Tell us what the vehicle is doing. We book you in, or we send the truck.

02

We inspect

A full check on the latest Launch diagnostic equipment, so the fault is found rather than guessed at.

03

We repair

You get the price before we touch it. What was quoted is what you pay.

04

Back on the road

Tested, road checked and handed back, usually the same day.

Checked properly. Not guessed at.

Every service and pre-NCT check at Harristown runs the same inspection, on all makes and models, cars and working vans alike.

Car in side profile with the main service check points marked: engine and diagnostics, brakes, electrical and battery, and tyres and alignment

Engine & diagnostics

Fault codes read on the latest Launch diagnostic equipment, so the problem is found rather than guessed at.

Brakes, discs & pads

Pads, discs, lines and handbrake checked and measured against the wear limits.

Electrical & battery

Battery, alternator, starter and lighting tested. The usual reason a car will not start on a cold morning.

Tyres, wheels & alignment

Tread depth, pressures, condition and alignment. Often the difference between passing the NCT and failing it.

Plus suspension, steering, exhaust, air conditioning and the full pre-NCT list. See the pre-NCT check

Navan based. Never far away.

The workshop is ten minutes from Navan town centre and drivers come to us from right across mid-Meath. The recovery truck ranges a good deal further, five counties, day and night, with nationwide transport on top.
