Your 2020 Buick Encore: the work
For collision repair on the 2020 Buick Encore, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Repairs can go through an insurance claim or be paid directly; tell us which in your request. Collision repair covers panels, bumpers, paint and, when needed, frame and structural work.
Your Encore, up close
As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. The body is 4.35 m long and 1.81 m wide. It fits most condo and driveway spots. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking the work
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A car while yours is in
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
A few things first
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Planning around the work
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Keeping it that way
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What affects the price
We price the job before we start, never after. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
When you know your dates
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
