PDR works when the paint is not broken. Door dings, small creases and most hail dents are good candidates; sharp creases, dents on a panel edge or cracked paint usually need conventional body work. Many PDR technicians are mobile and come to you.

Good to know

How much does paintless dent repair cost?

A single small door ding often costs about $75–150, with larger or multiple dents priced higher; hail damage is usually quoted per panel or per car and is often covered by comprehensive insurance.

Is paintless dent repair permanent?

Yes. Done properly, the metal is reshaped to its original form and the dent doesn’t come back, and because the original paint isn’t touched there is no color match to fade.
