The Subaru Forester: Scratch repair
For scratch repair on the Subaru Forester, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
About your Forester
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.
Your request
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental means the work does not stop your week. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
How the price is set
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. We price the job before we start, never after.
After the work
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
Timing
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Waiting on parts is the most common reason a repair takes longer.
On the day
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. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
