What is Paintless Dent Removal (PDR)?
Paintless Dent Removal repairs dents on vehicles without affecting the original paint work. The process uses a variety of custom-made tools that massage and manipulate the metal back to its original form without affecting the paint work.
How long does it take to remove a dent ?
This depends on the severity, size and location of the dent. Dents can be caused by many things, from runaway shopping carts to hail storms. If the dent was caused by a shopping trolley, it will likely be easy to access and will take up to 20 minutes to remove. Vehicles damaged by hail storms could take a day or longer, depending on the severity of dents.
How much does it cost to repair a dent?
It depends on the size, location and complexity of the damage. The average dent, such as one made by a shopping trolley, will cost approximately $120 to repair. Whatever the damage, PDR consistently costs about 1/3 as much as traditional body shop repairs. For larger dents, please call Dent-A-Way for a free quote.
Will a dent come back?
Absolutely not. Once a dent has been removed properly with PDR, it never comes back.
Thinking of selling your car? PDR can help...
If you are selling your car, PDR is one of the best ways to get top dollar. Image is everything, and most people judge a car by its appearance. If it looks good, they assume it has been taken care of. Used car dealers and wholesalers know this.
Do you have a discount for more than one dent?
Yes, we offer discounts for multiple dents. If you have more than one minor dent on a panel, we can generally do a better price, depending on the sizes and number of dents.
Typically, any dents the size of a 50c piece or less are repairable. Dent-A-Way may be able to fix larger dents, depending on the location and severity. Please contact us to organise a quote for these types of dents.
