About us

The mechanic who comes to you

Albert Mechanic Garage – also known as The Mobile Mechanic Service – started with one simple idea: the car should not have to go to the mechanic. The mechanic should go to the car.

Our story

A workshop in the boot

Most people do not have a free day to sit at a workshop, organise lifts and wait for a phone call. So Albert packed the workshop into the car – toolboxes, trolley jack, axle stands, a diagnostic scanner and the parts that fail most – and started fixing cars where their owners already were.

Since 2019, that has meant brake jobs on front lawns, clutch kits on family minibuses, services in complex parking bays and diagnostics in office car parks – for everything from Polo Vivos and Hardbodies to Audis, BMWs and Mercedes-Benz.

From our base at 6 Casey Lane in Abbotsford we cover the whole of KuGompo City (East London). The promise stays the same on every job: we tell you what is wrong, what it will cost and when it will be done – and then we do exactly that.

How we work

Four things we never skip

Find the real fault

Scan, test and check before replacing anything. Guessing with parts is the most expensive way to fix a car.

Quote in writing

An itemised quote on WhatsApp or email – parts and labour separate – before any work starts.

Work you can watch

The job happens in your driveway. Ask questions, see the old parts, see the new ones go in.

Stand behind it

Workmanship guaranteed, parts with the supplier's warranty, and a clear invoice for your records.

Who we help

Built around your day

Families at home

Service, brakes or a flat battery sorted in the driveway while you get on with the weekend.

People at work

We fix the car in the office car park, so you never have to take leave to see a mechanic.

Bakkies, taxis & fleets

Minibuses and work bakkies serviced where they park, so they keep earning money.
