Fix Auto Chelmsford unveils new site 

Fix Auto Chelmsford has relocated to a new 8,000 sqft state-of-the-art new repair centre a month ahead of schedule.

The new site is expected to increase repair capacity by 25% to about 150 jobs per month.

The move was accelerated when the spraybooth at the previous site went down.

Owner Danny Ashwell said, “With all the major amenities and facilities installed, all was going to plan and we’d set a moving in date for the end of October. But when our existing spraybooth went down, pushing the move through seemed the obvious solution to maintain our level of workload even though I knew we had a mountain to climb to get it all done.

“Fortunately, the team got right behind it and worked tirelessly to make it happen. I couldn’t be prouder.”

Ian Pugh, Managing Director for Fix Auto UK, said, “What Danny and his team are achieving is totally inspiring. He laid out some bold plans 18 months ago and you must applaud his determination to keep to his script. When faced with a daunting challenge to complete the work needed on his new site and then relocate the business within days rather than weeks is a mighty achievement and is a credit to all involved.”
