The 2005 Dodge Ram: Scratch repair
Scratch repair for your 2005 Dodge Ram? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. As a car, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking the work
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Ask anything about the work in the request. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
A car while yours is in
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. 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. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
What goes into a quote
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer.
Looking after it afterwards
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
Before you drop the car off
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.
How long you are without it
Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.
Still deciding?
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
