From Milk Floats to Garages in Downton
Our garage service was founded in 1996 by Stephen Andrews, who began his trade years repairing milk floats while working for a local dairy.
After working for a number of years as a car mechanic, Stephen started Downton Service Station as his own business. He later brought in two more qualified family members, including his son, Jack, who now operates The Garage Milford-on-Sea, to work beside him. Together, they provide high-quality MOT's, services and repairs to anyone in the local area.
