Booking the work for the Forester
For scratch repair on the 2014 Subaru Forester, 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.
Your Forester, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking a time
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Driving while yours is in
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Delivery is priced by distance in your offer, and pickup from us is free.
When the car is ready
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
Why prices differ
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. We price the job before we start, never after. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
What to bring
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Keeping it that way
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
