Madeley Testing Station in short

Madeley Testing Station is a Dawley garage at the Mill on Heath Hill, offering servicing, MOT with online booking, welding, air conditioning, DPF cleaning, clutches and tyres from one site. Phone, email and address are published and match the listing and the company record exactly. Our view: the clear-identity pick for MOT and servicing in Dawley.

Customer reviews sit at 4.5 on Google from 232 ratings, the only source we hold, a steady rather than standout record for the round. What counts against Madeley Testing Station: the site is thin, with no prices, hours, history or insurance details, and the trading name differs from the company name on the record, so the written quote from Madeley Testing Station is the document that matters.
