Getting a price
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Ask anything about the work in the request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep your week on track
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
How long it takes
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Keeping it that way
If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work.
Getting the car ready
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. 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.
