Straightforward Care for Your Car

From our workshop at Chris Matthews Automotive, we help drivers looking for mechanics in Ballarat stay on top of servicing, repairs and inspections without making the process complicated. We work on petrol and diesel cars, covering everyday maintenance as well as faults that need a closer look before they become harder to ignore.

Since opening in 2021, we’ve built our day-to-day work around logbook servicing, brake and suspension repairs, diagnostics, roadworthy inspections and general mechanical care. As a VACC member, we also have a clear set of industry standards behind the workshop work we carry out.

Clear communication matters to us throughout the job. We explain what we’re looking at and what the next step involves so you know what we’re discussing before work goes ahead.

When your car is due for routine maintenance or something does not feel right, we can start with the symptoms or service history you already know. For a practical starting point, call (03) 5335 9499.
