Why us

Why Drivers Trust Grange Moor Garage

Four decades of doing things properly, a Bosch Master Technician at the wheel, and the kind of dealer-level equipment most independents can’t justify. This is what genuine expertise looks like.

The owner’s story

From Apprentice To Owner

Sam’s journey began at just 14 years old when he started work experience at Grange Moor Garage one day per week. That progressed into additional workshop time before he undertook a Level 3 NVQ apprenticeship in Light Vehicle Repair & Maintenance under the guidance of founder Robert Gunn.

Following his apprenticeship, Sam successfully completed the Bosch Diagnostic Technician Programme before progressing to the prestigious Bosch Master Technician qualification — the highest Bosch awards. Further qualifications followed in hybrid and electric vehicle repair.

When Robert retired, Sam took over the business he’d grown up in — and continues to invest heavily in training, technology and workshop equipment so customers receive dealer-level expertise with independent garage service.

Had my car booked in this morning for an MOT. I was extremely impressed with the thoroughness of the test and pleased with a pass result. So impressed I will definitely be booking in the car for a service later in the year and also booking the wife’s car in for MOT and service later in the year. Thank you
