Car Alternator & Marine Alternators Repair
UNITED BATTERY is the home of "THE FREE ELECTRICAL CHECK". This basic service saves our customers time and money because it will isolate the problem to the charging system component that has failed, such as, the battery, starter, alternator, dirty or loose connections or loose fan belt. Once located and fixed the system is rechecked to make sure that was the only problem.
We offer rebuilding services for starters and alternators in the unlikely event that we don't have yours available and in most cases rebuilding is a one day service, subject only to availability of parts. We do installations, with batteries in most cases it is free and on starters and alternators the cost is based on how long it will take. A technician can tell you how long it will take for your application and quote you a price. We install automotive wiper blades for free. Our goal is customer satisfaction after all we want you and your friends back again!
