Rust repair: your Maxima
The 2002 Nissan Maxima needs rust repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your Maxima, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Getting a quote
Ask anything about the work in the request. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Driving while yours is in
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Planning around the work
A clear timeline comes with every quote. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
What affects the price
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
