Your Escort and collision repair
The Ford Escort needs collision repair? Send photos and when it suits you. 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.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A rental while we work
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
How the price is set
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
Getting the car ready
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. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Aftercare
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
How long you are without it
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
