What We Do at the Scene

  • Safety check & diagnosis: We assess the environment, battery health, and charging system basics (alternator/voltage) to ensure a safe jump.
  • Clean, controlled jump start: We use surge‑protected portable boosters and correct connection points—no risky cable-to-cable jumps.
  • Post‑start checks: We confirm the vehicle is charging and advise on driving time or battery replacement if needed.
  • Next‑step options: If the battery won’t hold charge, we can arrange on‑the‑spot replacement (where available) or recovery to a garage of your choice.

Do you help with EVs and hybrids?

Yes, we assist the 12V support battery where procedures allow. For high‑voltage issues, we’ll advise manufacturer support.
