About Us

Andrew Ferris bought Andy’s A1 Auto Care three years ago, but we’ve been a trusted name in Shellharbour since 2010. What started as a mobile mechanic has since grown into a full-service workshop, offering a wide range of mechanical repairs and servicing, as well as professional panel beating under our second business, Andy’s A1 Paint & Panel.


We’re a team that values honesty and clear communication. We don’t fix what’s not broken, and we always wait for your approval before starting any work. Our goal is to make car maintenance easier and less stressful – whether you're coming in for a simple oil change or engine work.


From tyre supply and steering repairs to clutch servicing and paint restoration, we’ll help you keep your vehicle running – and looking – its best. Need a pink or blue slip? We’re authorised to provide those too.


Conveniently located in Barrack Heights, we service vehicles from Albion Park and Kiama through to Wollongong. Get in touch today for an inspection or quote.
