Your Sonoma and paint work
Here is how we handle paint work for the 1997 GMC Sonoma: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. As a pickup truck, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental meanwhile
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Planning around the work
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
Pricing, plainly
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. We price the job before we start, never after. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Send a request
A quote costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
