How to Find Quality Engineers for Your Commercial Vehicle Repairs

Nick Sampson • 14 September 2023

Getting your commercial vehicle repaired is a daunting task. You need to find engineers you trust to get the job done to a high standard and as quickly as possible to ensure little disruption to your business. The last thing you need is an engineer who overcharges or doesn’t do a good job and leaves you with dangerous vehicles.

 

If your commercial vehicle needs repairs, here’s how to find an engineer you can trust.


Look at reviews and testimonials

One of the best ways to see how well an engineer fares is by checking their reviews and asking for testimonials. Previous customers will be honest and you’ll be able to see if they deliver a high standard of repairs. You can check Google reviews or speak to other businesses in your industry to distinguish the good engineers from the bad.


Check what qualifications they have

You should be able to see on the company’s website what qualifications their engineers have. It’s a good idea to stick with those that have IRTEC qualifications. This validates the competence of technicians working to maintain the commercial vehicle, trailer and passenger-carrying industries. So it's usually a pretty good indicator that they can be trusted.


Do they have the equipment to deal with your vehicle?

One of the most important things you can research is whether or not they are able to deal with your commercial vehicle. Some large or complex commercial vehicles require specialist equipment and parts which means not every engineer is able to help you. Check if they have calibrated brake rollers with a DVSA database, calibrated beam setter and multiple vehicle lifts, ramps, pits, column lifts and scissor lifts.
