About your Riviera
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a price
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
How the price is set
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. We price the job before we start, never after. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
What to bring
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Timing
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
Send a request
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
