Your 2012 Buick Regal: the work
This page covers scratch repair for the 2012 Buick Regal, and a rental while the car is with us. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
As a mid-size car, it is a straightforward size for this work. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
How to request it
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
A car while yours is in
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. A rental means the work does not stop your week. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
On the day
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
Looking after it afterwards
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
How the price is set
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job.
When the car is ready
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
Ready to ask?
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
