What We Offer
Corrosion Prevention Treatments
After cleaning the metal on a Richardson vehicle, we seal it with specialized epoxy primers, rust inhibitors, and undercoatings that lock out the moisture and oxygen that cause corrosion.
Seamless Metal Fabrication
For extensive damage or hard-to-find panels, we hand-fabricate custom metal patches for Richardson vehicles, matched precisely to the original body contours.
Complete Oxidation Removal
Covering rust up is not a repair. We grind down to bare metal, cut away severely corroded sections, and weld in fresh steel on Richardson vehicles so the corrosion has nothing to come back to.
Our Process
From initial assessment to final inspection, here's what to expect when you bring your vehicle to Texas Five Star.
Thorough Inspection
Inspection covers visible rust as well as probing underneath paint bubbles and undercarriage components for hidden structural corrosion.
Eradication & Cutting
Surface rust gets ground to bare steel; deep rot gets cut out completely. Either way, no oxidized metal is left behind.
Welding & Shaping
New sheet metal is precision-welded into place on your Richardson vehicle, ground smooth, and shaped to restore the exact factory body lines.
Sealing & Refinishing
Epoxy primer seals the repair against future moisture intrusion, followed by color-matched paint and clear coat.

Rust Repair FAQ for Richardson Drivers
Is rust repair worth it on an older car?
In most cases, yes - rust spreads and weakens the metal over time, so addressing it early protects both the vehicle's structural integrity and its value. We'll give you an honest assessment of whether repair makes sense for your specific vehicle.
Why can't you just paint over rust?
Paint doesn't stop corrosion that's already underway - it just hides it temporarily while the rust continues spreading underneath. We grind or cut out the affected metal and weld in fresh steel so there's nothing left for the corrosion to come back to.
Do you repair rusted frames?
Yes. We use precision welding and our frame equipment to repair structural rust on Richardson vehicles, restoring the metal to factory-correct condition.
How long does rust repair take?
It depends on how extensive the corrosion is and whether custom metal fabrication is needed. We'll give you a specific timeline after a thorough inspection.
Do you offer a warranty on your work?
Yes — all of our paint and bodywork, including rust repair performed for Richardson customers, is backed by a 5-year paint warranty.
Do I have to use the body shop my insurance recommends?
No. In Texas, you have the right to choose your own repair shop — your insurance company cannot require you to use one of their recommended shops.
