FAQ: Do you offer fixed-price restorations, or is it based on time and materials?

At Finch Restorations, we operate on a time-and-materials basis. Unlike modern manufacturing or straightforward repairs, vehicle restoration is inherently unpredictable. Each project is unique, and unforeseen challenges can emerge as we uncover hidden damage, assess structural integrity, or source rare components.

While a fixed-price model might seem appealing, it is not practical for restoration work. Many classic and vintage vehicles require custom fabrication, extensive handcrafting, or specialist parts that may no longer be in production. The time required for these processes can vary significantly, making a pre-determined cost unrealistic.

Our approach ensures flexibility and transparency. We work closely with our clients to provide regular updates, detailed documentation, and cost breakdowns throughout the restoration process. This way, you remain informed and in control as your vehicle is brought back to its former glory.
