Introduction

Welcome to Automation East Anglia.

These Terms & Conditions set out the basis on which we provide vehicle servicing, repairs, diagnostics and engineering services. By booking work with us, you agree to the terms outlined below.

If anything is unclear, we are always happy to talk it through.

Our Approach

We aim to provide honest advice, reliable workmanship and clear communication at every stage.

  • No work is carried out without your approval
  • We explain findings and options in plain language
  • You decide how to proceed, with guidance from us

Estimates & Quotations

Any estimate provided is based on the information available at the time.

  • Estimates are not fixed quotations unless confirmed in writing
  • Additional faults may become apparent during inspection or disassembly
  • We will always contact you for approval before carrying out additional work

We aim to be as accurate as possible, but some issues can only be identified once work begins.

Authorisation of Work

We will only proceed with work once authorisation has been given.

Authorisation may be provided:

  • Verbally
  • By email or message
  • Through our booking system

If we are unable to contact you regarding further work, your vehicle may be reassembled without repair or held safely until we receive instruction.

Parts & Materials

We use quality parts suitable for your vehicle and the intended use.

  • Parts may be OEM, OE or high-quality aftermarket alternatives
  • We will discuss options with you where appropriate
  • All parts remain the property of Automation East Anglia until payment is received in full

Old parts can be returned if requested in advance.

Labour & Timescales

All work is carried out with care and attention using appropriate tools and techniques.

  • Labour is charged based on time, complexity and required expertise
  • Estimated completion times are given in good faith but are not guaranteed
  • Delays may occur due to parts availability or unforeseen issues

We will keep you informed throughout.

Payment Terms

Payment is due upon completion of work unless agreed otherwise in advance.

We accept:

  • Card payments
  • Bank transfer
  • Other agreed methods

Vehicles will not be released until payment has been received in full.

Vehicle Storage & Collection

We will notify you when your vehicle is ready for collection.

  • Vehicles should be collected promptly once work is complete
  • Storage charges may apply where vehicles are left without prior arrangement
  • Personal belongings are left in vehicles at the owner’s risk

We stand behind the work we carry out.

  • Warranty is provided on parts and labour where applicable
  • Warranty terms vary depending on the type of work and parts used
  • Warranty does not cover:
    • General wear and tear
    • Misuse, neglect or external damage
    • Unrelated faults

Please contact us if you have any concerns following work.

Engineering & Specialist Work

In addition to vehicle servicing and repairs, we carry out engineering and fabrication work.
