Davlyn Fleet Maintenance Ltd

4.7/5

Dear Customers Davlyn Fleet Maintenance is Registered in Wales at 2 Masefield Way, CF37 5HE. We have a site at LE7 9DQ where we can do major jobs that need a ramp. At Davlyn we work on passenger-carrying vehicles, cars, light commercial vehicles, and heavy goods vehicles including light and heavy plant machinery. We have experience dating back to 1991. We operate this business based on THREE very paramount values to us and these are: 1. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 2. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services 3. To value our customers and ensure that they are always satisfied with our services This is therefore evident that even though we are a business, we do not believe that we are doing what we do ENTIRELY for money. We value our customers' satisfaction. They are the basis of our growth. Where we have to lose to meet our customers at their reasonable satisfaction point, we would have to do that. We are not the cheapest garage but we also believe in that customers get what they pay for. There are many garages out there that may regard themselves as cheaper than us but we do not prioritize saving our customers money, our priority is to satisfy our customers by doing the job, doing it right safeguarding them from the unnecessary resultant costs of rectifying rushed jobs done incompetently. We do not claim that jobs will never go wrong but the difference between us and other competitors is that we PHYSICALLY take full responsibility when things go wrong from our end. Many service providers take responsibility HERE but not on the ground. We believe that is why customers should come to us for their work.
