Booking the work for the Express
For your 2012 Chevrolet Express, rust repair starts with a short request. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Express, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking the work
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
A car while yours is in
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Why prices differ
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. We price the job before we start, never after.
Keeping it that way
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
How long it takes
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
