Default Head Gasket Issue, Anyone know any Decent Garages?

A mate of mine has a 06 2.5Ltr STI Hawkeye Impreza with the PPP, and it's developed a head gasket problem. We did a sniff test on it today and it's definately got an issue. Can anyone recommend any garages that they have used to get there's sorted out or know anyone that's had the same issue.

Cheers Chaps

i used http://www.bridgemillmotors.co.uk/ no idea where u are based but they did a amazing job.

one of the lads used to work at local subaru and the other at austin martin. both really sound and very good.

i has new headgasket/rad/thermostat/clutch/inlet manifolds/water pump/cambelt kit etc had so much done and he did it at a great price mate. really is worth a call if your not to far away

How much would it be roughly for headgasket and labour for that alone?
