Hail Damage Repair
Paintless repair for the whole car, written up for your insurance claim. Free estimate at the Broomfield shop.
01 / What this involves
The whole car, under proper light.
Hail rarely hits one panel. Hood, roof, trunk lid and the tops of the fenders usually take it together, and dents you cannot see in a driveway show up under shop light. That is why the estimate is a full walk-around of the car, and why it is worth doing indoors, by someone who does this every hail season.
From storm to repaired car
Four steps. You know what happens next at every one of them.
- 01
Right after the storm
Take a few photos of the car and note the date. Park it under cover if you can, and do not let anyone talk you into a repair in a parking lot.
- 02
File the claim
Hail is normally a comprehensive claim, not collision. Call your carrier, open the claim, and keep the claim number handy. Paying out of pocket instead? Skip this step.
- 03
Free estimate
Book a 90-minute hail estimate. Jason inspects every panel under shop light and writes the estimate in the format your insurer expects. Bring the claim number.
- 04
Approve and drop off
You get the scope and the number before anything is authorized. Say go, pick a drop-off time, and the work starts.
A closer look
See what the light reveals.
Paintless dent repair is careful work on the original metal. These before-and-after illustrations show how a dent changes the reflection on a panel.
Hail dents across a hood
Multiple small dents interrupt the reflected lines. The smooth-panel view shows the continuous reflections a technician looks for while checking the repair.
AI-generated examples to explain the process, not photographs of customer repairs. Paint condition, panel access and metal stretching determine what is possible on your car.
When we will tell you something different
- Cracked or chipped paint usually needs refinishing
- Sharp creases and stretched metal can change the method
- The car has to be seen before the number is final
Straight answers
Hail repair questions
Can hail dents be repaired without repainting?
Often, when the paint is intact and the metal can be reshaped. The inspection checks the depth and location of the dents, access behind each panel, and any damaged paint before the repair method is chosen.
Why do you inspect the whole car under special lights?
Small dents can disappear in ordinary daylight. Inspection lights reveal changes in the panel's reflection, helping us find damage across the hood, roof and other panels and write a more complete estimate.
What should I bring to my hail estimate?
Bring the vehicle and your claim number if you have opened an insurance claim. Book the full hail estimate for a detailed write-up. If you are paying yourself, you can still start with a free estimate.
Can I get a firm repair price from photos?
Photos help show the general damage, but they can miss shallow dents and cannot show access behind the panel. The final scope and price follow an in-person inspection.
How long does a hail repair take?
The number of damaged panels, dent depth and access all affect the work. Jason gives you a time estimate with the repair scope before you approve the job.
