The work on your Lancer

Your 1985 Dodge Lancer and windshield repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. A small chip in the windshield can often be repaired before it spreads into a crack.

The car itself

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.

How to request it

Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.

Need a car meanwhile?

Add a rental to the same request as the work. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.

After the work

Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.

Getting the car ready

Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work.

What affects the price

We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.

How long it takes

Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.

Get an offer

A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
