Booking the work for the Explorer
Need scratch repair for your 2011 Ford Explorer? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking a time
You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list.
A car while yours is in
Add a rental to the same request as the work. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
When the car is ready
Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Before you drop the car off
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
What affects the price
We price the job before we start, never after. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job.
Ready when you are
A person reads your request and replies with a price and a time.
