Early shifts at Lufton, the school run on Sherborne Road, and a dead battery outside the Quedam
Yeovil keeps long hours. Engineering and aviation shifts run round the clock, delivery vans are out before dawn, and town centre car parks fill and empty all day. That rhythm is hard on batteries, which is why we see so many car will not start calls at the start and end of a shift.
Where we attend across south Somerset
Cars, vans, SUVs, stop/start petrol and diesel, plus hybrids and EVs with a 12V fault. Short runs to early starts at Lufton or Houndstone rarely give the alternator time to recharge. Vehicles left in town centre car parks for days bleed charge through alarms and keyless systems.

What it costs and how booking works
Most call-outs are from £70, quoted on the phone before we leave. That covers a standard mobile jump start across Yeovil and the BA20 to BA22 area. A battery check once the engine is running is included.
Call or WhatsApp with your postcode, vehicle and symptoms. We confirm we can attend, give a realistic window of 20 to 40 minutes, and head to your kerb, unit or safe roadside location.
Shift workers ring us with these questions
How quickly can you get to me?
We aim for 20 to 40 minutes depending on traffic and availability. A clear run from the town centre is quick, while busy school run times can add a few minutes.
Can you reach the Houndstone and Lufton business parks?
Yes. We regularly attend work vans and cars across the Lufton and Houndstone areas, day or night.
Do you help towards Dorchester, Taunton and Bath?
Yes. Yeovil sits at a natural crossroads and we cover the BA20 to BA22 area plus the routes towards those towns.
My hybrid is dead on the drive. Is that something you handle?
Usually yes. A dead 12V battery can make a hybrid look completely lifeless, and a safe boost often gets everything working again.
Can you help on the A303 or A37?
We cover those routes. If you are on a live carriageway, reach a safe spot first, then call us.
Hybrids, EVs and trade vans
From trade vans parked at Houndstone to family hybrids on the Wyndham Park estates, we work safely on the modern electronics that dead batteries leave stranded. Professional booster packs and careful connection methods protect sensitive systems.
