Your 900 and rust repair
Need rust repair for your 1995 Saab 900? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. 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.
What to send us
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. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
A car while yours is in
We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We collect the rental when your car is ready. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Keeping it that way
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Timing
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
Make a request
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.
