Your Encore and rust repair
For your 2019 Buick Encore, rust repair starts with a short request. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. You can add a rental to the same request. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A car while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We collect the rental when your car is ready. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Planning around the work
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Keeping it that way
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a 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.
Why prices differ
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We price the job before we start, never after.
