Hail and door dings
Paintless Dent Repair
Whether it is hail damage across a roof or a single ding from a careless door in a parking lot, most shallow dents can be worked out from behind without touching your factory paint. Call for a free estimate.
Chapter 01
The dents this actually fixes
A dent qualifies for this repair when the paint over it is not cracked or chipped and the metal has not been stretched past what the panel can spring back to. That covers most hail damage across a roof, hood or trunk lid, and most of the door dings a shopping cart or a careless neighbor leaves behind. It does not cover a dent with a crease so sharp the paint split, or a hit hard enough to fold the panel edge.
North Texas hail is the reason this service exists on our board year round. A storm can leave forty or more small dents across one vehicle in under ten minutes, and every one of those panels still has its original factory paint underneath the dents, which is exactly what makes them fixable without a paint booth.

How we work a panel back
We work from behind the panel with specialized rods and tools, pushing the metal back out toward its original shape from the inside rather than sanding or filling from the outside. It takes a trained hand and patience, not a shortcut, because the metal has to come back to true without stretching it further or leaving a low spot that shows under parking lot lights.
Because nothing is sanded, filled or repainted, the factory finish and its factory color match stay on the car exactly as it left the manufacturer. We give free estimates on hail and dent damage before any work starts, so you know what a panel needs before you commit to it.

Insurance, aftercare and when it is not enough
Hail claims are some of the most common insurance work that comes through our doors, and we walk customers through that claim the same patient way we handle a collision claim, working directly with the adjuster on the estimate rather than leaving you to translate paperwork on your own.
If a dent has a crease, a paint chip, or sits right on a body line where the metal is under more tension, tell us when you call. Those cases sometimes need a small amount of filler and paint on top of the dent work to finish clean, and we would rather tell you that up front at the free estimate than surprise you once the panel is already opened up.
