DIY and assisted livery prices are reviewed annually in April and will increase to reflect
annual inflation and changes to the cost of consumables and business overheads.
Prices are fixed as shown throughout the year with the exception of Christmas Day, Boxing
Day and New Years Day. Price rates for assistance requests in the holliday period are:
Christmas Day/Boxing Day 4 times standard rate; New Year’s Day 2 times standard rate.
Hours in which services are offered on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day are as usual;
Staff will have the afternoon off on BoxingDay, so no additional services are available to
your livery package between 12noon and 6pm.
Please request any assisted livery work by 4pm the day before if written on the board or by
7pm if by phone or message. We understand that last minute requests can’t be helped from
time to time and are sympathetic to this but unreasonably frequent late requests for jobs
may incur up to a 50% price increase for work done.
Jobs requested to be done specifically out of usual working hours (7.30am-6pm) may incur
a £5 surcharge at our discretion.
