Why Paintless Dent Repair Is the Right Call for Hail

Most hail damage is cosmetic, not structural — which makes it a near-perfect match for PDR. Our technician massages each dent out from behind the panel, so your factory paint and clear coat stay exactly as the manufacturer applied them.

Keeps Your Factory Paint

No sanding, filler, or repainting in most cases — your car keeps its original finish and resale value.

Usually Faster

PDR typically turns around quicker than traditional bodywork, so you're back in your vehicle sooner.

Built for Insurance Claims

Hail damage is almost always a comprehensive claim. We document every dent and work the claim with your adjuster.

Today's storm hit directly across Davis County. If your vehicle was outside in any of these cities, it's worth a quick free inspection — hail dents are easy to miss on darker paint and can hide cracked clear coat that only gets worse if left.

Hail & Insurance: What Davis County Drivers Should Know

  • Hail damage is typically covered under your comprehensive coverage, not collision.
  • You owe your comprehensive deductible — we'll help you understand it before any work starts.
  • You are not required to use a shop your insurance company recommends. The choice of repair shop is yours.
  • Hidden hail damage (cracked clear coat, roof and hood dents) is easier to document right after a storm, so it's worth getting inspected soon.
  • Be cautious of out-of-town "storm chasers" — we're a local shop that's been here since 1989 and will be here after the season ends.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can all hail dents be fixed with paintless dent repair?

Most can. PDR works best on dents that haven't cracked or chipped the paint. If a panel has sharp creases, broken paint, or deep damage, we'll let you know upfront if traditional bodywork or repainting is needed instead.

Will my insurance cover hail damage repair?

In almost all cases, yes — hail is covered under comprehensive coverage. You'll be responsible for your deductible. We can help you understand your policy and coordinate directly with your adjuster.

Do I have to use the shop my insurance company suggests?

No. You have the right to choose your own repair shop anywhere in Utah, regardless of which shop your insurer recommends.

How long does hail damage repair take?

It depends on the number and severity of dents. Light hail can sometimes be finished in a day; heavier damage with many panels affected takes longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline after your free inspection.

How experienced is your PDR technician?

Our paintless dent repair work is handled by a specialist with over 25 years of dedicated PDR experience, helping drivers across Davis County, Wasatch County, Salt Lake County, and Summit County recover from Utah hailstorms.

Do you use glue-pull dent repair?

Yes. Depending on where a dent sits and how easy it is to reach from behind the panel, our technician uses either traditional rod-and-tap PDR or glue-pull repair — pulling the dent out from the front with specialized glue tabs — sometimes both on the same vehicle. We use whichever method gets the cleanest result without disturbing your factory paint.

What if my car has more than just hail dents?

No problem. If a panel needs paint or structural work beyond PDR, our full collision repair shop handles that under the same roof — no need to go to a second shop.
