About
The red and blue sign on Kennels Road.
For 34 years Stan's has been the place Timaru and Oamaru drivers bring the electrical jobs: the car that won't crank, the mystery drain, the aircon blowing warm. Stan and the team run a proper local workshop, the kind where honest advice comes standard.
The reviews tell the story better than we can. A traveller's blower motor rebuilt on the spot so they could carry on to Dunedin. Batteries swapped with a loan car offered freely. A ute transformed by good advice and fair pricing.
You'll find the workshop at 73 Kennels Road in Washdyke, arrows on the gate, paddocks out the back, Battery Town and Ruralco signs at the fence.
"Locally owned and operated for 34 years. Stan can take care of all your automotive issues from starter motors to air conditioning."

"I dropped in unannounced with a faulty heater blower unit. These guys couldn't source a replacement but spent an hour and a half putting new bushes etc into the blower motor and got it going so I could continue my journey to Dunedin. Brilliant service, awesome price. I HIGHLY recommend Stan's Auto Electrical. Thanks guys for the awesome customer service."
"Stan and his team done a great job sorting my ute out for me with good honest advice and fair pricing, I cant belive the difference it has made."
"Stan was very helpful in sourcing and fitting a great stereo system into my vehicle. Great communication and service. Highly recommended."
"We have replaced batteries in both of our vehicles in the last month unfortunately, but the guys at Stan's made the experience a positive one! Reasonably priced, prompt service and loan vehicle offered freely made the task a breeze. Will certainly be using them again and recommending them to others! Thank you Warren"
