Fixed right. Shown, not told.

Dockside has been fixing Brisbane cars in Woolloongabba since 2010. Nothing gets worked on until you’ve seen the photo and approved the price — and everything leaves with a 12-month parts and labour warranty.

Why the photos matter

You shouldn't need to take our word for it.

The garage trade runs on trust, and trust runs on proof. So before any work happens, you get photos of the actual problem on your actual car, a priced list, and an approve/decline button per item.

No mystery line items, no ‘while we were in there’. Decline anything — the car comes back with the photos so the next garage can quote it too.

What we do

The work that keeps you moving.

Three bays, four lifts, and the diagnostic kit the dealers use.

Logbook servicing & rego prep

Manufacturer-schedule logbook servicing that keeps your new-car warranty intact, plus a free pre-check before your safety certificate is due so nothing ambushes you.

Diagnostics

Warning lights read properly — dealer-level kit, a printed report, and a fix priced before anything is touched.

From the forecourt

What drivers say.

★★★★★
“They sent photos of my worn discs next to a new set. First workshop in twenty years of driving that showed me instead of telling me.”

Grace T., WOOLLOONGABBA

Brakes and a logbook service

★★★★★
“Dealer quoted four figures off a warning light. Dockside's diagnostic found a sensor, not a gearbox. The printed report saved me a repair I didn't need.”

Priya N., EAST BRISBANE

Diagnostics, then a very small bill

★★★★★
“Booked the courtesy car online, dropped mine at eight, had it back by four. The approval texts made it painless.”

That noise isn't going to fix itself.
