Booking the work for the Regal
For the 1997 Buick Regal, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 7 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
Driving while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
Keeping it that way
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
What affects the price
We price the job before we start, never after. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
When the car is ready
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
