Booking the work for the Ram 1500 Pickup
Your 2008 Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup needs scratch repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Need a car meanwhile?
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
On the day
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
When the car is ready
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
What goes into a quote
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
