I would be very cautious about getting something "fixed up" if you're talking scratches, chips etc. It's hard to have a good match and blending. You should post pics on here to get some feedback on paint condition.

I don't know any good places in Sask but calling a car club or two might give you some ideas. Then you can get some quotes.

Pics would be nice to see the condition of the paint. Typically $2,000-3,000 for a respray in the same color with no or very little body work, if its much less than that I would question the quality. I would think Sask should be priced close to Alberta prices.

I'm not sure how prices are in Sask, but in the GTA an oem quality re-spray is ~$5k to start. You're almost always better off having the panels with damage re-sprayed, then dealing with the rest of the car via other means. Keep as much OEM paint as possible unless you're switching colours.
