A car while yours is in

Aftercare
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What goes into a quote
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. 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
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
A few things first
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
