Trusted by drivers from Long Stratton (NR15) and across Norwich & Norfolk. Our Ber Street garage is just 10 miles south of Long Stratton via the A140.
Cold weather is particularly hard on car batteries. The chemical processes that produce electrical energy in a battery slow down dramatically in low temperatures, reducing the power available to start the engine at precisely the time when the engine requires more energy to start. An autumn battery check is always worthwhile.

Long Stratton sits on the A140 - Norfolk's main north-south artery - making the drive to our Norwich garage direct and straightforward. As a service hub for a wide rural hinterland, many vehicles from Long Stratton cover high mileages and benefit from regular tyre, brake and service checks at our Ber Street workshop.

Overnight battery drain is usually caused by a parasitic draw - an electrical component that stays active when the ignition is off. Common culprits include interior lights, boot lights, aftermarket accessories and faulty control modules. We can diagnose parasitic draw and identify the cause.
Yes - all old batteries are disposed of in accordance with environmental regulations. Car batteries contain lead and sulphuric acid and must not be disposed of in general waste. We handle this as part of every battery replacement service.
Cold weather significantly reduces battery capacity and increases the current required to start the engine. A battery that starts the car reliably in summer may fail on a cold winter morning. If your car struggles to start in cold weather, get the battery tested - it's likely reaching the end of its life.
