Our team of professionally trained, knowledgeable and experienced technicians offer a friendly and polite service.

In 1963 Charles Douglas Friend (Doug) started the business, renting a building on the site of the old Hardwick Hand Laundry, on the Hardwick Industrial Estate. As time went on, the business grew, forcing Doug to move to larger premises on the site, as well as being joined by his son’s Dennis and Ian; with their younger brother David and sister Fay joining a few years later. Today the business has two sites; it’s Body Repair Centre on the Moreton Hall Industrial Estate and the MOT + Mechanical station based along Eastgate Street. We now employ 8 full-time and part-time technicians.

After two close friends mentioned about the above and beyond service of CD Friend, I though I'll give them a good. They have never failed me. Always going above and beyond. Fantastic pricing. Honest knowledge. Have been using them for a few years now. You can't beat an local independent family company. Thankyou
