Mount Louisa. Family cars, touring rigs, boats.
Mount Louisa is established residential — family vehicles, the 4WD that tows the van at Easter, and the boat sitting in the driveway most of the year. The work is less about fleet downtime and more about gear that has to be reliable when you finally use it.

The work round here.
Batteries that survive the heat
Townsville heat is what kills batteries here, not age. We test before we sell, fit in store, and size for the actual vehicle rather than whatever fits the tray.
Touring and caravan wiring
Dual battery systems, DC-DC charging, brake controllers, 7 and 12-pin trailer plugs, fridge and solar wiring. Set up once, properly, so it works when you are three hours past the last town.
Air conditioning before December
Regas, leak detection and compressor work. Worth booking before wet season rather than during it, when everyone else has had the same idea.

On-site or in the workshop?
Some jobs are better done where the vehicle is, and some are better brought to us. Gear that cannot move, fleet work and bigger jobs are the ones that suit a visit; a single small job — a battery, a globe, one connector — is usually sorted faster at the workshop. Ring us with what you have got and we will tell you honestly which way works out better.
Mount Louisa in our words.
A lot of Mount Louisa work is seasonal and predictable — battery replacement in Mount Louisa through the hot months, air conditioning just before the wet, and touring setups in the run-up to the dry. Booking ahead of those peaks is worth doing.
