Rang round three garages and this one was the only place that explained what actually needed doing. Price didn't change from the quote and it was ready a day early.

Drafted in your voice

Thanks Priya, that's exactly how we like to work. If something isn't needed we'll say so, and the quote is the quote. Give us a call when the next service is due.

Ask every customer automatically

The relief of getting a car back is the best time to ask. Review Kit sends the request once the vehicle is collected, referencing the work carried out, so the customer has something specific to write about.

  • Requests sent when the vehicle is handed back
  • QR codes on invoices and the reception desk
  • Personalised with the service or repair completed
  • No chasing from your service advisors

Replies only reference facts you've approved, so nothing inaccurate goes public.

Know exactly what to fix first

Know whether the issue is the bill, the wait, or the lack of an update call, and see which of your fixes are already showing up in customer feedback.

  • Topic breakdowns taken from real review text
  • Trends over time, not one-off complaints
  • See which fixes are already working
  • Export insights for team meetings

Worth fixing: Price complaints almost always follow jobs where extra work was discovered mid-repair without a call first.

See which advisors earn the feedback

Reviews are tagged to the service advisor or technician on the job, so the leaderboard builds itself and everyone can see who's doing it well.

  • Automatic tagging by technician and location
  • Weekly leaderboards that drive friendly competition
  • Spot who needs coaching or a nudge
  • No spreadsheets or manual logging

Why reviews decide who gets the call

Drivers don't have a regular garage until they've had a good experience with one. The first one they try is almost always the highest-rated result on the map.

  • Review volume and recency lift you in local Maps results
  • Honest, specific reviews counter the trust problem the trade fights
  • Answering a complaint publicly is worth more than removing it
  • Topic feedback shows whether the issue is price or communication

Questions from auto repair

When is the request sent?

When the vehicle is collected and the job is closed, so the experience is still fresh.

Can we track MOT and service searches separately?

Yes. Maps rank tracking runs on the search terms you choose for each location.

What if someone complains about a price?

Reviews below 4 stars are held in your inbox until you approve the reply, so nothing goes out unchecked.
