About Skilton Truck Repairs

Skilton Truck Repairs’ journey began in Drury, New Zealand, where Layton spent his childhood in his grandfather’s workshop, Skilton Truck Parts. This early exposure planted the seeds for his future endeavors.

Relocating to Australia, Layton formed a lasting friendship with Nick Bell, and over 12 years, they both honed their skills to become certified heavy vehicle mechanics. This partnership led to the establishment of Skilton Truck Repairs in 2015 by Layton, initially servicing trucks during after-hours and weekends.

By 2019, the business officially took shape with Nick Bell joining as a co-founder. Together, Layton and Nick have steered Skilton Truck Repairs, leveraging their expertise as qualified heavy vehicle mechanics and qualified auto electricians.

Since its inception, Skilton Truck Repairs has evolved from a purely mobile operation to a well-established workshop, expanding its team with skilled mechanics. Specializing in Japanese heavy vehicles, the business now operates as an authorized safety inspection station. This growth underscores their commitment to excellence and adaptability in meeting the diverse needs of their customers.
