Your 2002 Ford Escort: the work
Rust repair for the 2002 Ford Escort: 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.
Size and finish
As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking the work
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Ask anything about the work in the request.
A rental while we work
Add a rental to the same request as the work. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
How the price is set
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
On the day
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
How long it takes
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
When you know your dates
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
