About your LS
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
How to request it
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Ask anything about the work in the request. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Driving while yours is in
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.
When the car is ready
A clear timeline comes with every quote. We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price.
How the price is set
Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person.
Keeping it that way
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
On the day
Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
