Standish Service Station Limited was founded in 1958. Known as Delph Service Station with ESSO petrol on sale situated on Preston Road, Standish and had just one lubrication bay.

The petrol station and lubrication bay became increasingly busy, due to the dedication of both my Mother and Father. As the garage continued to prosper additions were made.

My Father had one of the first automatic car washes to be installed in the area and also an ESSO accessories shop was added. In 1970 the premises were purchased from ESSO Petroleum Company so the business could follow its own direction .

The business has steadily grown over the years, incorporating new ideas and changing with technology and the flexibility of what our customers require. We underwent a refurbishment in 1997 and also gained ISO9002 accreditation. This involved adding 5 workshop bays and modern reception and office areas.

Since then we have decided to move and after a long process a decision was made and on September 18^th 2009 Standish Service Station Ltd moved to a brand new facility located within the Bradley Hall Trading Estate, Standish.

The new facility which is an impressive 6500sq ft has been designed from scratch and has had input from the entire workforce enabling us to maximize space and ease of working.

We have a new comfortable reception area for our customers with hot and cold drinks and snack facilities where they can wait while one of our trained technicians takes care of their vehicle.

Within the new premises we have a large M.O.T lane catering for class 4, 5 & 7 vehicles. We also have a new dedicated vehicle lift specially designed and installed to cater for large motor homes inc 6 wheel versions.

We are very proud of our new premises and although our old site on Preston Road has been our home for over 50yrs, we feel that our new home will impress customers old and new for some time to come!

BLOCK EXEMPTION REGULATIONS:

Under this ruling ‘YOU are free to choose who services your vehicle’

In 2003 the EU introduced a ruling that enabled owners to have their vehicles serviced by independent garages, as opposed to only franchised dealerships without invalidating the manufacturer’s warranty.

Our company is a Bosch Service Garage and also a member of ‘The Good Garage’ scheme and Wigan Trading Standards. We are checked yearly by each organization and all our technicians are Bosch trained who regularly attend courses giving you the customer ‘peace of mind!’
Our servicing types comprise of the manufacturers service schedules which are held on our system and updated each month. This type of servicing allows us to service your vehicle to the manufacturer’s recommendations using only genuine parts so we DO NOT INVALIDATE YOUR WARRANTY under the Block Exemption Ruling.

We also offer 2 other types of service which are:

• Interim Service
• Full Service

Do not confuse our Full Service with other ‘Full Services’ offered by other garages as we actually strip your brakes and clean the brake calipers ,discs and brake linings and adjust everything compared to ‘just checking’

Company vehicles:

If you drive a company car or van and have the inconvenience of having to travel to the franchised dealer to have it serviced, then why not give our friendly service reception a call and book it in with us as we hold accounts with ALL the major fleet companies and for your convenience, we probably could carry out the service while you wait? Or alternatively, you could use one of our courtesy vehicles.
All parts supplied and fitted carry a 12 month, 12,000 mile nationwide guarantee, so if for some reason, something fails then it will be dealt with wherever you may be.

If your vehicle has been in for a service or major repair, we endeavor to hand the vehicle back to you washed and clean.
