The team of mechanics are multi-skilled, while


behind the scenes, the admin staff, accountants and social media assistants work to establish strong relationships with clients and support businesses to promote the extensive services offered. In addition, the workplace has a firm equality


policy, with a balanced female and male organisation and a female lead mechanic. The facilities and expertise apply equally


to fleet maintenance, meeting a business’s requirements as well as legal regulations, including safety checks, repairs, valeting and MOTs. Fleet safety checks cover the 100 points of an


MOT test, with all defects recorded with pictures and repaired or advised to repair. The technicians are skilled to work on vehicles of all sizes, makes and ages - so clients can rest assured that their fleet is in safe hands, maintained to a roadworthy condition and that the time-consuming workload of the fleet manager is reduced. UK Truck and Plant Group also provides a


body build and fabrication service, as well as designing and constructing vehicles including box vans and tippers to request. To ensure customers are happy, vehicles are brought in regularly for inspections and consultation about any further repairs or advice. A full-parts service, which involves a supply


and fit, or just supply, is also available. “HGV management can be a lot for some operators,” said Sarah


Weller, Director and Maintenance Specialist at UK Truck and Plant Group. “ We help our customers keep on top the likes of brake tests and


servicing – which prove beneficial in the long run as it reduces the frequency of major breakdowns and repairs. “We are all about prevention over cure. We can’t emphasise enough that keeping on top of regular checks is the key to a longer vehicle lifespan and to ensure your safety, knowing vehicles are in top shape for the road. “As well as having a valid MOT and regular servicing, a HGV must


also be assessed during daily walk-rounds and checks, and have regular safety inspections. These need to be as frequent as six weeks and are a legal requirement, to act as a preventative maintenance measure and to spot any issues that risk becoming worse.” In addition, UK Truck and Plant Group’s qualified mechanics


look after plant, construction and farm machinery, testing and certifying plant equipment to register it as safe for use. Skilled in repairs, rebuilds, breakdowns and diagnostics: there is no task too difficult for the team. On top of physical repairs and replacements, a free online


maintenance planner and a digital document service is available to help customers manage their vehicle needs.
