Need a jump start? There is nothing worse than coming out to start your vehicle in the frigid Red Deer morning air and realizing that for whatever reason your battery is dead. Luckily we are just a phone call and more than likely less than 20 minutes away to help you with that.
We will come boost your car or truck back to life or replace your battery if needed. We also offer battery blankets keeping the health of your battery optimal through winter and oil pan heaters for easy start ups in those cold Central Alberta mornings. Warm oil means less damage to your engine by avoiding a dry start up. Our jump start services will get you back on the road within a matter of minutes.
With more than 2 decades of mechanical experience, we will be able to tell right away if its more than a battery issue and not waste time or money trying to “fix” the battery. In many cases, people will try to turn their vehicle over for too long when they have problems trying to get it running and this will often wreck a starter making it impossible to start up at all.
Everyone gets a flat eventually and most of the time you have to use your spare. A frustrating scenario because you’re more than likely forced to make an unplanned trip to the tire shop. Usually you can choose between one of two things, patch it or replace it. Either way, you didn’t expect this to take time out of your day and if you’re on a tight schedule that could ruin your day.
Wherever you are in Red Deer or central Alberta, all of our service vehicles carry tools for plugging tires if needed, getting you back on the road shortly after we arrive at your location. Keep in mind some damage to your tires may be too far gone for a repair but we will do the best we can to get you back on your journey. If we cant fix it, we can always replace it!
*Plugging tires is for emergency roadside repair only, you will have to go get the tire repaired as soon as possible*
Imagine this; you’re at the mall, pushing through the crowds of people with your Christmas gifts at hand focused on getting to the car as fast as you can to avoid freezing in the Central Alberta cold. You go to open the door and notice your keys are right where you left them, in your cup holder. Don’t worry, we’ve all been there.
The good news is that you still have your phone and since we are a Red Deer based tow truck company, we are just a few minutes away to come save you from the dreaded cold. As soon as we get to you and your vehicle, we will get to work getting you back in the comfort and warmth of your vehicle so you can pump up the heat and get back on your way home.
Betcha can remember every single detail of the last gas station you passed. You could probably recall most of the cars there too while you’re at it. And you’re probably only thinking about all this because you looked right at it after you assured yourself you had enough to get to where you’re going.
We have enough fuel whether you drive a big diesel or a small car to get you to the nearest gas station. Call us anytime, 24/7, and we will be there to get your wheels moving again.
There’s always that one guy that will tell you that you cant do it. Its to deep, the slant is too steep, you don’t have the tires. And does it ever suck when he indeed, told you so.
