With more than 25 years in business as a mechanic and company director, it’s fair to say Joe Azzopardi knows a thing or two about cars and motorbikes. His business, Azzco Mechanical Service, in Hoppers Crossing, has many loyal clients and it continues to grow,
Joe says.
“I opened the business in 1989 and many of our customers are still with us after 25 years. We are now servicing their children’s cars too,” he says.
“We have highly experienced mechanics working at our workshop and provide ongoing training to keep them up-to-date with changing mechanical technology.”
As well, the business attracts new customers.
“We had a customer come and see us after receiving a $3500 quote from another workshop for repairs to the air-conditioning in her Volkswagen Golf,” Joe says. “The customer called in to have her wiper blades replaced … I discovered a blown fuse, which was the reason behind her
air-conditioning problem so I replaced it at no cost and her air-conditioning worked again. Needless to say, she was ecstatic about not having an expensive repair bill.”
Joe and his two fellow mechanics, including 4WD specialist Darryn, are all qualified and accredited through VicRoads to provide roadworthy certificates, logbook servicing and repairs to all makes and models of cars, four-wheel drives and motorbikes without voiding warranties.
Azzco Mechanical Service is a stockist for Prestige Steering Centre and carries a large range of remanufactured steering components.
“We have a reputation for high-quality workmanship at competitive prices and are a member of the Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce,” Joe says.
The business cares about its customers and its community too. It has supported charities including the Red Cross, Lions Club, Lort Smith Animal Hospital and the Starlight Foundation.
