Your Regal and rust repair
Your 2000 Buick Regal needs rust repair? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Regal, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Its length is 4.98 m, so it is on the long side. Check the size of a tight parking spot. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a quote
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A rental while we work
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
Planning around the work
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
What affects the price
A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Getting the car ready
Ask any question you have before the work starts. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Looking after it afterwards
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Get an offer
Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
