Established more than a decade ago, and covering Romford and the surrounding areas as a family-owned company, Hales Commercial are your local commercial vehicle servicing and repair specialists. Operating from one of the best-equipped commercial vehicle garages in the region, we’ve built our business on the principles of first-class service, complete customer satisfaction and word-of-mouth referrals from existing clients.
Very few fleet commercial vehicle garages in or around the Romford area have the workshop capacity to accommodate 6 vehicles at any one time. In the last year alone, our company worked on more than 2,000 customer vehicles. In addition to servicing and repair work, we perform light commercial vehicle and van MOTs for private customers, trade clients and fleet management companies in East London, North East London and Essex.
We undertake commercial vehicle servicing and repair work on everything from light commercial models all the way through to trucks and HGVs weighing 44 tonnes. Our continued investment into staff training, modern equipment and diagnostic software has made Hales Commercial one of the most trusted commercial vehicle garages in Romford.
Our progressive outlook and our pursuit of excellence help us to comply with demanding trade and industry legislation, and to deliver the highest standards of workmanship on every vehicle. Light commercial and van MOTs in the Class IV and Class VII categories take place in dedicated inspection bays to ensure faster turnarounds for our customers.
FLEET MANAGEMENT
Many companies with commercial fleets trust our team to manage them year-round. This typically involves all required scheduled maintenance (e.g interim and annual servicing), pre-MOT checks and cleaning, inspections and diagnostics, and any repair work that might be called for. Our fleet management is always tailored to you and the needs of your vehicles.
MOTS
Not all garages are equipped to provide commercial vehicle MOTs. At Hales Commercial, we handle MOTs for vehicles in Class IV (goods vehicles up to 3,000kg) and Class VII (models between 3,000kg and 3,5000kg), alongside Class I and II MOTs for private clients, covering motorcycles with engines above and below 200cc respectively. Ensure you or your fleet aren’t stopped in their tracks due to a lack of MOT coverage – book in today at Hales Commercial.
COMMERCIAL BRAKE TESTING
At Hales Commercial we undertake brake testing for all categories, makes and models of commercial vehicle. We’ll formulate an in-depth, accurate report on brake performance for your records, so you can better understand the condition of your vehicle’s brakes. This report will measure metrics including bind, time lag, ovality, imbalance and max force, providing a well-rounded and meticulous picture of brake health.
DIRECT VISION STANDARD
All vehicles weighing in excess of 12 tonnes now required Direct Vision Standard permits in order to avoid Penalty Charge Notices. At Hales Commercial, we can help you obtain the required “star rating” by implementing video telematics recorders, blind spot cameras, driver alert systems and similar measures, such as side guards and warning signage.
TACHOGRAPH INSPECTION & CALIBRATION
As an approved tachograph centre for commercial vehicle operators, Hales Commercials provides a range of services fitting into two distinct categories: installation, and inspection / calibration. Working with both analogue and digital tachographs, and all makes and models of vehicles, we help our clients meet regulations around drivers’ hours by ensuring their instruments are operational and accurate.
COMMERCIAL INSPECTIONS AND DIAGNOSTICS
We provide complete inspection and diagnostic services for all light commercial and HGV vehicles. We are accredited with UKAS, the United Kingdom Accreditation Service, and we deliver our inspections on a regional and nationwide basis. All of our inspection work is compliant with the latest DVSA standards and recommendations.
We invest heavily into the latest diagnostic testing equipment and our team undertakes regular training. This means that we can usually identify any fault within your commercial vehicle sub-system and provide a suitable means of repair. The demands of today’s modern commercial vehicles may be complex but with Hales Commercial, you’re always in the safest possible hands
