Our Battery Jumpstart Process
- 1
Call or WhatsApp us — tell us your location, vehicle make/model, and what happened (won't start, clicking sound, no lights, etc.).
- 2
We dispatch a roadside assistance vehicle with professional jump equipment and a selection of replacement batteries.
- 3
Our technician attempts a jumpstart using safe procedures that protect your vehicle's sensitive electronics and ECU.
- 4
If the battery holds charge after jumping, we test it and the alternator. If the battery is dead, we can replace it on the spot with a new battery at competitive prices.
- 5
You're back on the road in 15–30 minutes. We provide a receipt and warranty card if a new battery was fitted.
If a jumpstart doesn't solve the problem and the vehicle won't run, we can switch to emergency towing without a second callout fee. For motorcycles with flat batteries, our motorcycle towing service includes battery jump capability.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a jumpstart take?
The actual jumpstart takes 5–10 minutes once our technician arrives. Total time from your call to driving away is typically 30–45 minutes including travel time.
Can a jumpstart damage my car's electronics?
Not when done correctly. We use professional jump equipment with surge protection and follow proper procedures to prevent voltage spikes.
How do I know if I need a new battery or just a jump?
Our technician tests your battery after the jumpstart. If it holds charge and the alternator is charging correctly, a jump is sufficient. If the battery fails the load test, replacement is recommended.
Can you replace my battery on the spot?
Yes. We carry a range of popular battery sizes on our service vehicle. If your battery needs replacing, we can fit a new one right there — no need to tow to a workshop.
How much does a car battery cost in Pretoria?
New car batteries range from R800 for small vehicles to R2,200 for large SUVs and bakkies. We supply quality brands at competitive prices, including fitment and old battery disposal.
My car battery died at a shopping mall — can you help?
Absolutely. Shopping mall and office park callouts are among our most common jobs. We come to your parking bay, jump or replace the battery, and you drive away.
Other common roadside issues we solve without towing include flat tyre changes, fuel delivery, and lockout assistance — all available 24/7.
