Your 2012 Ford Focus: the work
For scratch repair on the 2012 Ford Focus, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
The car itself
If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
A car while yours is in
A rental means the work does not stop your week. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.
After the work
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Getting the car ready
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. 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.
How the price is set
The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
How long you are without it
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.

Send a request with a few photos, and we reply with a price.
