Booking the work for the Ram
Need rust repair for your 2001 Dodge Ram? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
About your Ram
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. NHTSA lists 9 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
The request
A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A car while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Keeping it that way
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
On the day
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
Why prices differ
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation.
Planning around the work
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
Talk to a person
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
