Balsdons Vehicle Services

Please allow me to introduce our company to you. My name is Allan Balsdon, Having worked in the recovery / garage industry all my working life, i took on the running of a local garage in 1997 concentrating in vehicle maintenance and recovery of light and heavy vehicles.

Through being reliable and consistent, we secured several maintenance contracts and by 2004 we realised we would have to seek alternative premises. After a long search we realised that there were no suitable premises in the locality, so we purchased an acre of land on Exeter Road Industrial Estate in Okehampton, Devon, beside the main A30 trunk road and had a new purpose built workshop erected on it designed for the efficient maintenance of cars, vans and trucks and to use as an operating center for our recovery services.

We opened our new premises in November 2006. We are a family run business with three of my sons, Lee, Michael and Paul working for me, we also employ eight other qualified technicians and two apprentices.
