Your Corolla and scratch repair
For the 2003 Toyota Corolla, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. NHTSA lists 8 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
How to request it
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request.
A rental meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is ready. Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
After the work
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
A few things first
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. 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.
Planning around the work
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
What affects the price
The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
