Booking the work for the Regal
Here is how we handle collision repair for the 1981 Buick Regal: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request.
Your Regal, up close
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. 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
You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
Stay on the road
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
How the price is set
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
Getting the car ready
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
How long it takes
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
