About Us
Your friendly, local garage in Flintshire!
Paul and Pamela Worley, a husband and wife team, started trading 12 years ago. It all began when Tip Top was started as a bodyshop in Flintshire, providing exceptional quality car body repairs and paint jobs. As demand for their quality repairs and excellent customer service grew, so did the business. Their aim is to build faith, trust and confidence in the garage industry and to provide a safe and rewarding work environment for their employees.
In autumn 2017 we relocated to Flint, taking over what was once Flint Service Station, overlooking our gorgeous North Wales countryside. We expanded our business to include a mechanical repair workshop and MOT centre, and were thrilled to welcome many of the existing staff into our team, bringing their years of skill and enthusiasm.
Private and business customers are all welcome at our centre in Flint. And, some of our staff are up for a chat in Welsh if you fancy it!
The Team
Paul is a time served panel beater and painter (a rare breed these days) whose passion has always been the mechanical side of vehicles. During his early career, Paul worked his way up from repairing cars to managing bodyshops. He has a never ending knowledge of vehicles and how they work – and how to repair them!

Pam’s background is in customer service before serving as a civil servant, she then retrained and started her own holistic business.
