About CostDetails.com
Helping drivers understand repair costs clearly and confidently.
Car repair bills can be confusing. Prices can vary between garages, and most people are left unsure what is fair. CostDetails.com was created to help clarify typical repair costs and expectations.
We gather and compare repair cost data from garages across England, Scotland, and Wales. Our guides explain what each job involves, how labour and parts affect the total price, and what to check before approving any repair.
Why We Started
Many drivers have faced the uncertainty of not knowing whether a quote was reasonable. CostDetails began as a small side project to collect and compare real garage quotes. Over time, it became a database of verified averages and researched guidance designed to make information easier to find and understand.
Our Mission
- To make car ownership more transparent.
- To help drivers understand how repair costs are calculated.
- To provide clear, reliable, and regularly updated information on vehicle repairs in the UK.
How We Gather Prices
We use a combination of:
- Publicly available pricing data from trusted automotive sources.
- Information gathered from independent garages and service centres.
- Market averages sourced through research and verified submissions.
Our data is checked periodically to ensure it reflects reasonable current pricing, although individual quotes may differ.
