Your Lucerne and rust repair
Rust repair for your 2008 Buick Lucerne? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
What your car means for the work
As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 3 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Keep driving meanwhile
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
How the price is set
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
When the car is ready
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
A few things first
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
