Service areas
Mechanic and Smash Repairs,
Brisbane Inner South
Our workshop is at 2 Baldock St, Moorooka QLD 4105, which puts it inside the inner south rather than a drive away from it. We service and repair every make and model for drivers across Annerley, Yeronga, Salisbury, Rocklea, West End, Woolloongabba and the rest of the region, and accident repairs happen in the same building.
This is our home patch
Eight years at the
same address.
Moorooka sits between Ipswich Road and Beaudesert Road, with Rocklea on one side and Salisbury, Annerley and Yeronga around it. Almost every suburb on this page is either next door or a few sets of lights away.
John Ruzgani owns the place. There are six of us on the floor, and the person who looks at your car is the person who tells you what is wrong with it.
Ipswich Road and the brake bill
Stop-start traffic is the hardest work a brake system ever does. Pads that would last years on open road get used up in a fraction of the kilometres, and the odometer gives you no warning at all.
Short runs and cold oil
Oil that never gets properly hot holds onto moisture. If your car does a lot of five kilometre trips, the twelve month interval matters far more than the kilometre one.
Suburbs we cover
Brisbane inner south
If you are in Moorooka, Annerley, Salisbury, Rocklea or Yeronga, you are close enough to walk home after dropping the car off.
Mechanical and smash repair
Both sides of the job
in one building.
Most of the region has to use one workshop for servicing and a different one for panel work. We do both at Baldock St. When a car comes in with front end damage, the people fixing the panel and the people checking whether the radiator, the aircon condenser or the steering took a hit are in the same building, talking to each other.
We work with all major Australian insurers, and in most cases you get to choose your own repairer rather than accept whoever your insurer puts forward.

Common questions
FAQ — Brisbane Inner South
Where exactly are you in the inner south?
2 Baldock St, Moorooka QLD 4105. It is the only address we have, and everything gets done there or by a van that leaves from there.
How do I get to you from Annerley or Yeronga?
Straight down Ipswich Road and across. It is a short run from either, and there is parking on site so you are not looking for a space when you arrive.
How do I get to you from West End or Woolloongabba?
Down Ipswich Road through Annerley. Most people from that end drop the car in the morning and carry on into work from here.
Does your mobile service cover the inner south?
Yes. The van works across the Brisbane southside, which takes in this whole region. Servicing, brakes, batteries and inspections all happen fine in a driveway. Anything needing a hoist or a spray booth has to come to Moorooka.
Can I leave the car overnight?
Yes. There is an after-hours key drop. Book online first and describe the fault so we know what we are looking at before you arrive.
How much is a service?
Oil and filter from $149. Full service from $330. The variation above that comes down to oil capacity, oil grade and filter type, and you get the exact figure when you book.
Do you work on European and diesel cars?
Yes, along with 4WD, fleet, commercial, hybrid and electric vehicles.
Can you handle my insurance claim?
Yes. We work with all major Australian insurers and deal with the assessor and the paperwork so you are not chasing it.
What are your hours?
Monday to Friday 8am to 5pm, Saturday 8am to 3pm, closed Sunday. All major cards and cash.
