He arrived within the ETA and was so good to both me and my children, he went above and beyond and was a pleasure to speak too. Professional and a hard worker. Highly recommend this company the controller sorted the garage out and was also a great help. Very good experience.

    Amy

  • James was great in collecting my vehicle in a short amount of time following a breakdown, and explaining the process and next steps. He also called to let me know he had dropped my car off at the garage, great service would recommend.

    Amy

  • My daughter’s car broke down due to overheating. James came out to assess the vehicle, he showed us some of the signs that the water pump likely needs to be replaced. He rescued the vehicle and took it to our chosen garage. James was very helpful and polite.

    Andrea

  • James came out me to when the engine in my van had given up. It was in the middle of the heatwave, and is a very dangerous spot. He first check if I was okay and gave me an ice cold bottle of water he had on the truck, then he got the van on the truck in double quick time with minimal disruption. Very professional and friendly service. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you James and Burke bros.

    Chris

  • I was stranded 2.5hrs from home on a Sunday and Burke Brothers not only accepted the job when other companies hadn't, but they got their driver James on shift early to come and get me. He was polite, friendly, professional and importantly, careful with my car! I recommend this company if you are stuck and need a reliable service.

    Clova

  • Great example of teamwork and knowledge that we experienced when our car broke down. (London to Manchester) Quick response, professional dealing with recovery and paying attention for our safety. It was good to hear that there is company culture focused on safety and professionalism. James helped us to find the issue and this helped us to act on the way to our friends house. Next day car was fixed in 30’. Wish that all of us support each other in the future once in need. Great company and highly recommend Thanks to James and his team.

    Dariusz

  • My McLaren had a weak battery, I was stuck on the side of the road. This company called to let me know they were on the way, received a text saying how far away they were. Andrew was Very professional and helpful. He made sure we were in a safe place to load my car, covered my wheels to prevent them from getting scratched, took photos, had a check list to make sure the company had everything (keys) and information. As a woman being stuck on the side of the road it was very comforting to know I could rely on them. Thank you so much for taking great care of me.

    Debbie

  • A really big Thank You to Burke Bros Recovery with a very special mention to our driver Valentin who recovered us back to our home address with our Navara and Caravan. It had been a very stressful couple of days after breaking down for us both and Valentin assured us everything would be fine and of course it was. He is a credit to Burke Bros .. Thank you to all the team.

    Derick

  • After 7 hours waiting at the side of the M50 after a breakdown yesterday we were so pleased to be picked up by James. He could not have been more professional and nothing was too much trouble for him. He is an excellent driver and we had a very comfortable trip home. Thoroughly recommended!

    Diana

  • Was recovered and towed over 140 miles with our newborn babies after breaking down - was an extremely stressful situation. Joe from Burke Bros was amazing - so kind and friendly and helpful! Thank you!

    Esther

  • Eden was the best person you could hope for when your tire exploded in the middle of nowhere in the dead of night. He was incredibly patient, great company for a fun conversation, and genuinely helpful. Very accommodating, super friendly, and, last but not least, impressively quick.

    Florian

  • Picked my bike up with a flat tyre. James was brilliant, top guy. Was very professional, did a great job with my pride and joy. Trusted him completely!! Made the commitment for a long journey to got me home in great time. I would highly recommend these guys!

    Iain

  • We were so pleased with this company, firstly they got us recovered earlier than we expected, the driver was absolutely brilliant. He made sure our bike was totally secure and due to the motorway being closed he took a detour to get us home in a decent time. He was kind courteous and great to talk to, highly recommend this company.

    Kevin

  • Where do I start.. faith installed by Mark. Ovewhelmed by his care to make sure we got home. He didn't go an extra mile it was way more. He spoke with the AA to help organise us when we broke down and gave us excellent service. You could say the good old fashioned way. Service a 5 safety a 5 welfare a 5 and caring you guessed it a 5. We already had faith restored. PLEASE KEEP BEING YOU MARK. What seemed to be a disasterous end to an already trying weekend to RTTW. Was turned round to being a relaxing positive experience. An asset to your business. From the Scottish and one south African passengers.

    Mari

  • Their were contracted by RAC to recover my car from Wales to Birmingham at the very last minute. Their made no promises but their did not let me down. LEE from the day shift come as fast as he could and was extremely polite and easy to talk to even the neighbours loved him. He took my car and he delivered on a promise that he get it there asap and he then phoned me and told me he did it safely. Top lad.

    Mohammed

  • After a long wait for the RAC they finally contacted Burke Bros to come out to me. They were with me within 30 mins of being contacted. The driver James was friendly and professional and immediately made me feel at ease. He was very knowledgeable and tried multiple things to get my car to run. It had to be recovered in the end but James took every care to ensure both my car and I got home in one piece. Thank you, you are my hero.

  • Thank you so very much coming to the rescue last night getting my daughter back to Gloucester along with her dad when there car broke down on the way home!

    Samantha

  • Broke down on M6 today phoned insurance company for breakdown assistance and they sent this company out to help, the time from breakdown to recovery was 40 minutes, the chap who arrived was Chris, an extremely professional and polite person who without a doubt an instantly likeable person, who represented the company in excellent form. I wouldn’t recommend breaking down on any motorway but if you do these are the people to come to your aid.

    Simon

  • The recovery service was very professional. Charlie brought us all the home (a distance of 50miles +). He made us feel at ease straight away and we enjoyed the laughs and banter on the way home. Thanks again, Charlie.

    Suzanne

  • Excellent service. Quick response time. I had my wife and children with me at the time of our breakdown and the children were obviously very distressed. Our recovery driver Sam put us all at ease and recovered our vehicle very quickly and efficiently and took us home. I could not fault the service we received. Thank you so much.

    Thomas

  • What an amazing company. We needed recovery of our 8m, 4.5 tonne motorhome and these guys could not have been more helpful. Initially our cover hadn’t passed on the size of our vehicle but another was despatched quickly, and when we couldn’t physically get to our campsite, we were taken back to their base to stay overnight while the mechanic could look at it in the morning. From giving us water and the use of a bathroom, to pointers on where we could get a good meal, amazing. So friendly and helpful. A jumpstart the next morning and we were on our way to the dealer for a longer fix. Thank you to everyone involved, a worrying situation was made much better by these wonderful people.
