What the price usually includes
- Testing the battery and charging system
- Supplying and fitting the correct battery
- Taking away the old battery
- Resetting systems that need it on some modern cars
What changes the price
- Battery size and type: standard, EFB or AGM (stop-start cars need EFB or AGM)
- Battery brand and warranty length
- Mobile fitting or workshop
- Cars where the battery is hard to reach or needs registering to the car
How to get quotes you can compare
- Give the make, model and year, and say if the car has stop-start
- Say whether the battery is new or old, and how often it goes flat
- If a fairly new battery keeps going flat, ask for a charging and drain test
- Say where the car is if it will not start
Why there is no single price
Two cars that look alike can need different parts, oils or labour time. A quote based on your vehicle and what is actually wrong is the only reliable number, so post the details and let local businesses quote.

Questions
Why does my battery keep going flat?
Common causes are an old battery, a charging fault, or something drawing power with the car off. A business can test all three.
Can the battery be replaced at my house?
Yes. Many mobile mechanics and auto electricians replace batteries on site.
Is posting free?
Yes. Posting a job never costs anything.
