The work on your Mazda3
For the 2012 Mazda Mazda3, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Your Mazda3, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking the work
Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Ask anything about the work in the request.
Need a car meanwhile?
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Getting the car ready
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim.
Looking after it afterwards
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
When the car is ready
Collect the car when it is ready, or ask us to arrange the handover. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
What goes into a quote
If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. A quote from us is free and comes with no obligation. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
Ready when you are
Send photos and a few details, and a person replies with the next step.
