Workshops wanted in Christchurch: who we would like to hear from

Christchurch is the main city of Canterbury, spread across the flat plains between the hills and the coast, and for many people a car is the practical way to get around. When it needs a WOF, a service or new tyres, most people end up ringing around and hoping the first quote is a fair one.

Christchurch has garages, tyre shops, detailers and wrap and tint specialists who already look after those cars. Motorfy is not about replacing them. It lets a driver ask once and compare the replies, and it puts a local workshop in front of people who are ready to book.

Canterbury winters can be cold and frosty, and cold mornings are hard on batteries and tyres, so seasonal jobs come up every year. A workshop that is listed and ready to quote does not have to wait for the phone to ring when drivers start looking for help.

  • Mechanics and general workshops doing WOFs, servicing, brakes and repairs
  • Tyre shops fitting and balancing tyres, including wheel alignment
  • Wrap and tint shops
  • Detailers
  • Panel and paint businesses, and other automotive specialists

If you run a garage, tyre shop or auto repair business in Christchurch, there is probably a place for you. Anything automotive can be listed.

What happens when you list your workshop

Listing takes a few minutes and it is free to join. Registration asks for your business details, including your business address and NZBN, and workshops are reviewed before they can quote.

Currently live in Auckland, Tauranga, Mt Maunganui and expanding. We are looking for workshops in Christchurch so that local businesses are part of Motorfy as it grows.

How Motorfy works for Christchurch workshops

A driver sends a request

They pick a service or describe the problem in their own words, and add their car and any photos.

You send a quote

The request arrives in your portal with a notification. You reply with your price and your earliest slot.

The driver books

They compare the quotes they receive. Accepting yours books the job, and you can chat with them before or after.

You stay in control of your work

  • You set your own prices. Motorfy never dictates what you charge.
  • You can decline any request that does not fit your skills or your week, with no penalty.
  • Payment is held until you mark the job complete.
  • Questions are answered in chat, so there is less phone tag.

Find the page for your trade

Each trade uses Motorfy a little differently. Mechanics can read about online quote requests for mechanics, and tyre shops can see how to get more customers. Wrap and tint shops and detailers have their own pages too: wrap and tint shops and detailers.

You can also see every area we are looking at on the workshops wanted page, or read how a free workshop listing works.
