Your Sprinter and rust repair
Rust repair for the 2005 Dodge Sprinter: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Sprinter, 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. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
What to send us
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Keep driving meanwhile
We collect the rental when your car is ready. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Keeping it that way
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
What goes into a quote
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
What to bring
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Planning around the work
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
