Booking the work for the Prius
Your 2016 Toyota Prius and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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 Prius, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
The request
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Ask anything about the work in the request. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Driving while yours is in
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. We collect the rental when your car is ready. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
A few things first
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
What goes into a quote
We price the job before we start, never after. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
Looking after it afterwards
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
How long it takes
You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover.
Still deciding?
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
