Good to know

- Your approval comes firstBefore your service we will ask you to confirm any parts you would like us to replace. If during your service we find that additional replacement parts are required we will always get your approval to proceed before continuing. Please note that if at any point you choose not to approve any replacement parts or wish to halt the service altogether you will be liable for any parts consumed and works already undertaken.
