Booking the work for the Model S
Your 2013 Tesla Model S and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
About your Model S
An electric car needs care around its charging port and sensors. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 11 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
How to request it
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Stay on the road
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
How long it takes
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
Pricing, plainly
A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Before you drop the car off
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
Talk to a person
