What happens after you ask
You can add a rental to the same request. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
When the car is ready
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in.
What goes into a quote
We price the job before we start, never after. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Looking after it afterwards
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Still deciding?
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
