FAQ

Paintless Dent Repair is a method of removing dents by carefully reshaping the metal from behind the panel. It restores hail damage without repainting, helping keep the original factory finish and vehicle value.

Yes. We work with all insurance companies and can help you understand the claim process. We’ll provide an estimate and explain the next steps clearly.

Turnaround depends on the severity of the hail damage. After the assessment, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe and keep you updated until pickup.

An appointment is recommended so we can inspect the vehicle properly and plan the repair. If you have an insurance claim, bring your claim number (if available) — we’ll guide you from there.

If the paint is compromised or the damage is beyond what can be restored without paint, we’ll tell you honestly and recommend the best solution after inspection.

No. Once the metal is properly restored, the dents don’t “return.” As long as the panel isn’t damaged again, the repair is permanent.

No, we perform free estimates in person only to guarantee accuracy.

We stand behind our work. Ask us about warranty details during your estimate, and we’ll explain what’s covered for your specific repair.

It helps, but it’s not required. A clean surface makes dents easier to see, so if possible, a quick wash can improve the accuracy of the assessment.

Hood, roof, and trunk are the most common, but hail can also hit doors, fenders, and pillars. During inspection, we check all panels to make sure nothing is missed.
