Bubbling paint, brown staining or flaking metal all mean different things — rust repair starts with an inspection to understand how far the damage actually goes.

  • Inspection First

    To see how much sound metal remains.

  • Different From Rustproofing

    This repairs existing damage, not just prevention.

  • Free Estimates

    A clear scope before any work begins.

What's Included

Corrosion Assessment

How much sound material remains, and where.

  • Checked in person, not judged from a photo
  • Sound metal identified, not just the visible rust
  • Extent of the damage explained clearly
  • A clear estimate before anything is cut
Surface Prep & Refinishing

For damage that doesn't need metal replacement.

  • For rust that hasn't compromised the metal
  • Corrosion removed and the area treated
  • Properly primed before any paint goes on
Metal & Panel Replacement

For more extensive corrosion.

  • Corroded metal cut back to sound material
  • New metal or panel welded in
  • Used only when surface repair isn't enough
Colour-Matched Paint

Prep, priming and paint to match the surrounding finish.

  • Matched to your factory paint code
  • Blended into the surrounding panel
  • Proper cure time before pickup

Signs You Might Need This

  • Bubbling paint or brown staining
  • Flaking metal or visible holes
  • Changes around wheel arches or door edges
  • A previously repaired area that looks different again

Questions

Rust Repair FAQ

Is rust repair the same as rustproofing?

No. Rust repair addresses damaged metal and coatings; rustproofing aims to limit future corrosion. Existing damage needs assessment before a protective treatment is considered.

Does painting over rust fix the problem?

No — covering a damaged area with paint or undercoating doesn't mean the underlying problem has been repaired.

Can the full extent of rust be seen from outside?

Not always. The visible patch may not show the full extent of corrosion underneath the finish, which is why an inspection matters.
