Welcome to the Mill Garage website!

The Mill Garage is a family run business and started trading in 1974, when Jimmy Horne (Managing Director) a mechanic to trade opened his own premises in Duns, Berwickshire in the Scottish Borders. The garage is very successful and has built its reputation on honesty, affordable rates and excellent workmanship.

In 1984 Stephen Horne, Jimmy’s eldest son joined the company as body shop painter – Steve is now a Director in the company. The body shop plays a major part of the business – all types of repairs for customer and insurance work, motor homes etc. It is a fully equipped body shop with oven bake spray booth. All paintwork is guaranteed. Also in the body shop rally cars are built; full preparation, welding, roll cages, body and car modifications with suspension built.
In 1985 Michael Horne, Jimmy’s youngest son joined the company as a mechanic in the workshop, Mike is a fully trained mechanic and also a Company Director. The workshop is a Crypton Tuning Centre, Class 4 & Class 7 MOT’s, all types of repairs and servicing. Work ranging from engine modifications to a tyre changing facility is on site. Jimmy has been involved in rallying and rally car preparations since the early 1970's and his love of rallying rubbed off on Mike. Mike’s successes include winning the Jim Clark Rally (1994) and the Scottish Rally Championship (1994). Mike will be competing in the 2008 Scottish Rally Championship in a MK2 Ford Escort.
In 1996 Mill Garage saw the potential in converting motorhomes, when a ‘motor home’ came in for repair, the internal workmanship of the vehicle left a lot to be desired, and Jimmy knew we could do better. All conversions are built on site – everything from fitting and painting roofs to match vehicles to all internal fixtures, fittings, soft furnishing, servicing and MOT’s as well as providing full parts and accessories – so we know the conversion inside and out! Customers can come on site at any time and see their conversion in progress – made to their requirements at anytime.
The end result is a conversion we are all proud of – and one the customer can enjoy to the full.
