Rust repair: the 2002 Subaru Impreza

The 2002 Subaru Impreza needs rust repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.

Your Impreza, up close

A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

The request

We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.

Driving while yours is in

Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

When the car is ready

Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.

What affects the price

Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.

Before you drop the car off

Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Ask any question you have before the work starts.

Looking after it afterwards

Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.

Still deciding?

Start with photos and a short description.
