The work on your Rio
The 2004 Kia Rio needs paint work? Send photos and when it suits you. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
What your car means for the work
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a price
Ask anything about the work in the request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A rental meanwhile
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Planning around the work
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Before you drop the car off
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
What goes into a quote
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Keeping it that way
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Over to you
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
