Dent Repair Cost -> Repair Map Locations

The most asked question by customers is the cost of hail dent repair, trolley dents or door dints. The industry standard for pricing of that first standard dent varies from $80 to $130. Factors influencing pricing depend on:

• size of the dent or dents
• depth of the dent or dents – one deep slightly stretched dent may even be quoted
• number of dents – the more dents to be fixed in that visit sees a rapid drop in per price of the dent
• complexity of the dent or dents including creases or folds
• expected quality and what people are wanting to pay just so they don’t see the annoying dent as compared to a person who is extremely fussy and keep their vehicle extremely immaculate
• time to do the dent or dents
• whether paint needs to be maintained (ie panel will be resprayed regardless so being careful not to crack the paint is no longer an issue)
• removal and replacement and access to the dents (often luxury cars have different standard removal and replacement of part as compared to the standard Japanese and Australian made vehicles lending to varying times)
• how far the PDR technician must travel to and from home to repair the vehicle or if you drop the car to them instead
• urgency such as quick sales or return of damaged rental vehicles
