Booking the work for the ES
CarmaCars takes requests for scratch repair on the 2005 Lexus ES, and rents you a car while yours is in. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your ES, up close
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. You can add a rental to the same request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
A rental meanwhile
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
Looking after it afterwards
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
How long it takes
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
Pricing, plainly
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
