Your Mazda3 and rust repair
This page covers rust repair for the 2011 Mazda Mazda3, and a rental while the car is with us. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What to send us
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. You can add a rental to the same request.
Stay on the road
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
What affects the price
We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. We price the job before we start, never after.
After the work
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
How long you are without it
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
What to bring
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. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
