Two things make an inner-city battery job different. The car is usually underground — a basement bay a tow truck can't reach and a roller door that needs a fob — and the engine is usually stop-start, which rules out the cheap flooded battery a generic parts shop reaches for first.
A stop-start car needs an EFB or an AGM. Fit a standard battery and it will fail inside a year, generally outside warranty, because it's being asked to restart the engine dozens of times a trip instead of once.
Give us the building and the bay number and we'll come to the car, test the battery and the charging system, and fit on the spot — no tow, no moving it into daylight.
What we stock for this
Como is wedged between the Kwinana Freeway and the Swan, with Canning Bridge station at one end and a long stretch of foreshore along the other. That gives us a commuter suburb and a river suburb in the same postcode, and both generate their own kind of flat battery.
Canning Bridge is a park-and-ride, so cars sit there all day in the heat and get asked to start at five — the single most common way a tired battery finally gives up. Down on the foreshore it's boats and tenders, where a cranking battery asked to run electronics all day won't see a second season. We carry both sides of that: AGM for the commuter car, dual-purpose or deep-cycle for anything on the water.

Yes. Como is 15.6km from our Maddington warehouse — about 20 minutes via Albany Highway and Manning Road. There's a small delivery fee outside our three 5km free zones (Canning Vale, Maddington and Fremantle), or you can collect from the counter and pay the straight warehouse price. Call 08 9451 4048 for the exact figure.
Yes, and it matters. A stop-start car needs an EFB or AGM, not a standard flooded battery — fit the wrong one and it'll fail inside a year, often outside warranty. Como has a lot of newer vehicles on the road, so we keep both EFB and AGM in the common sizes. Give us the rego on 08 9451 4048 and we'll confirm which of the two your car actually takes before you buy.
That's a call we get a lot. Station car parks are where a tired battery finally gives up, because the car sits all day in the heat and then gets asked to crank at 5pm. We'll come to the car park, test the battery and alternator free, and if it's the battery we fit a new one on the spot — usually 15 to 20 minutes. Open 24/7 — every day of the year on 08 9451 4048.
Usually short trips. Como has 5 schools inside the suburb, and a school run plus a few kilometres to the shops never puts back what starting the car takes out — so the battery slowly discharges until one cold morning it won't crank. We'll test it and the alternator free. If it's just undercharged we'll tell you that rather than sell you a battery.
It depends on the spec — a small sedan and a European AGM are a long way apart. Because we buy factory-direct there's no retail markup in the middle. Call 08 9451 4048 with your rego and you'll get a fixed number, not a range.
Unit 11/95-97 Kelvin Road, Maddington, WA 6109 — about 20 minutes from Como, via Albany Highway and Manning Road, about 15.6km. Free customer parking on site. Walk in any time we're open, get the battery and the alternator tested free, and have it fitted while you wait.
Open 24/7 — every day of the year — call 08 9451 4048 day or night. If you're stranded in Como we'll give you a straight ETA rather than a "sometime today", and we'll come to the car.
