Highlights
“Recently had my VW Golf R suffer engine failure, Ken and the team took the car in quickly diagnosed the issues and issued full report of items needing to be replaced in order to get the car working in perfect condition. Picked the car up and had been driving really well. Oil level sensor light kept appearing, called Ken advised to bring the car back for checking and the team rectified the faulty sensor. Looking forward to fully running the engine in and enjoying fully! Highly recommend Regal Engines for there efficient turnaround and help! Thanks again Billy”
“A big thank you to Ken, Ann, Lorraine, Tina, and the team at Regal Engine for instilling another lease of life in our Peugeot 207. I couldn't be happier. Our car engine seemed to be burning oil. It was recommended that I look into an engine rebuild. The things that I was impressed with were: - Very prompt reply with a quote - The very diligent service and excellent knowledge - Very friendly and super helpful: we got offered a lift to the station as we had to leave our car for a few days for repairs - The car's high CO emissions issues were resolved subsequently I would certainly recommend”

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
