Your Sonata and scratch repair
For scratch repair on the 2002 Hyundai Sonata, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. 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.
What your car means for the work
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 7 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Need a car meanwhile?
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. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
After the work
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
When the car is ready
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
On the day
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
How the price is set
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Your move
Questions about the work? Ask them in your request.
