Teaching the Basics - Tyre rotation
About us
Peter and Kay Hewson opened Daly & Richards Garage in 1980, and it quickly became a favourite among the locals. As their business and family grew, their son Matt completed his aprenticeship with the family business.
In 2013 when Peter and Kay retired, Matt knew he wanted to grow the business but needed more skills, so he worked with another local company to complete his diesel Mechanic trade for 5 years.
So in 2017, with the extra skills aquired Matt and Kim reopened Daly & Richards Garage in it's original home at 68 Drayton Street.
Being known in the community to have quality workmanship, affordable prices and a friendly team, many of the old customer returned to check out the new generation.
Daly & Richards are now able to look after not just the family car, but also the work truck, or fleet of company cars.
Daly & Richards are looking to the future with training the the next generation.

Very Helpful
I Bought a car from Dalby recently, and we live 6 hours away. With all the uncertainty around not being able to see or test drive ect, we Google searched a mechanic, went with the good rating these guys had, and the very next day Matt went and did a full check over the vehicle for us, took many photos and gave us the report. Besides the fantastic service regarding the car and great communication the guys there were just so helpful. Even Kristy who answered the phone calls!! And also charged us a great price !!
Thank you so much guys, really appreciate it.
