What your car means for the work

Booking the work
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. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
A rental while we work
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Looking after it afterwards
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Why prices differ
Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
Getting the car ready
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
How long it takes
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.
