Scratch repair: your Encore
Need scratch repair for your 2014 Buick Encore? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Driving while yours is in
Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Collect the car at our location for free, or have it delivered.
What goes into a quote
For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
When the car is ready
We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Keeping it that way
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
On the day
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Ask us
Start with photos and a short description.
