Booking the work for the Sorento
Book paint work for the 2011 Kia Sorento with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
What your car means for the work
As an SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Driving while yours is in
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
When the car is ready
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Why prices differ
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
Looking after it afterwards
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Ready to ask?
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
