PDR Doesn’t. Body shop repairs follow the car. PDR leaves no trace.
Right Damage. When PDR isn’t right for your damage, we’ll say so.
This Is Harder
Than It Should Be.
A hail storm leaves adjusters, estimates, supplements, and deductibles. Insurance companies have no interest in making that easy.
“The adjuster said totaled. The car still drove fine.”
“I didn’t know I could pick my own shop.”
“I just wanted it back the way it was.”
“Nobody explained the process until it was already a mess.”
One Method.
Two Situations.
Paintless dent repair works when your paint is intact. The method is the same for a door ding or a full hail storm. The process around it isn’t.
Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) — The Method
Technicians work from behind the panel with metal rods, coaxing each dent back to factory shape. No filler, no sanding, no paint. Your original finish stays exactly as it left the manufacturer.
Small & Mid Dents
“You’d never know there was ever a dent — the repair was flawless.” — Warren E. · Demolition Dent Denver, our sister company. Same team. Same standards.
Door dings and parking lot hits don’t need a body shop. When the paint is unbroken, PDR restores the panel to factory shape — and because nothing is repainted, no repair record follows the car.
Factory finish. Clean history. Same day.
Hail Damage
“Not only does the car look like the hail damage never happened, but they worked with my insurance and the rental car company. They made the entire process absolutely effortless.” — Erik L. · Demolition Dent Denver, our sister company. Same team. Same standards.
After a hail event, 2 things need handling — the repair and the claim. Most shops do one. We do both. We inspect under PDR lighting, document what the adjuster missed, and negotiate with your insurer until the numbers are right.
Insurance handled. Factory finish preserved.PDR Works On Most Dents.
Not Every One. Here’s How To Tell.
The right method depends on the damage. When PDR isn’t the answer, we’ll say so.
Hail Damage
When paint is intact, and it usually is after hail, PDR is the right call. No repaint. No filler.

Step by Step.
The claim process is built to be confusing. Here’s what happens at every stage.
The Storm Hits.
You walk out to your car. The hood looks like the surface of the moon. Panic, then confusion, who do you call first? Most people contact their insurer before they know what they’re agreeing to.
Hail is a no-fault comprehensive claim in Texas, it generally won’t touch your rate. But your first move matters. Call us before you accept anything.
We tell you what to do, and what not to agree to.
We coach you on documentation. Specific angles, what panels to photograph, how to capture dents that don’t show in flat light.
We prepare you for the adjuster call. What to say. What not to agree to. What rights you have before a single estimate is written.
We remind you: you choose your shop. Insurers often steer customers to preferred vendors. You are not required to go there.
You File the Claim.
You call your insurer. They assign an adjuster and schedule an inspection. The adjuster may show up in person, or they may send a photo-only estimate through an app. Either way, the first number they give you is almost never accurate. It’s a starting offer.
Photo estimates routinely miss 30–40% of hail dents. Don’t accept the first number until we’ve inspected the car.
We make sure the estimate reflects the real damage.
Free inspection before you commit. We assess your vehicle under PDR lighting and document every dent, before your adjuster writes anything final.
We flag low estimates. If the insurer’s number doesn’t cover the actual repair, we document the shortfall and help you push back with evidence.
We discuss deductible options. Most of our customers pay nothing out of pocket beyond what insurance covers. We explain how that works on your first call.
We Inspect Your Car.
Shops write a quick estimate and move on. We treat the inspection as the most critical step. What we find determines what your insurance covers.
PDR lighting reveals dents invisible in natural light. The adjuster’s photos miss them. We don’t.
A complete count. Panel by panel. Written down.
PDR lighting inspection. Our fluorescent lighting system reveals every dent contour regardless of size. Nothing gets missed.
Panel-by-panel documentation. We count every dent, measure impact size, and produce a written report organized by panel — the same format insurers use.
Full written estimate. You receive a complete repair estimate before any work begins. No surprises, no revisions after the fact.
We Handle the Insurance.
There’s almost always a gap between what the insurer offered and what the repair costs. Most people absorb it. It doesn’t have to go that way.
Most of our customers never speak to their insurance company after filing. We handle everything after that.
We make the calls. You do nothing.
We contact your adjuster directly. We submit our documentation and negotiate the supplement on your behalf. Zero calls required from you.
We handle the paperwork. Supplement requests, revised estimates, approval confirmations — all managed by our team from start to finish.
We coordinate your rental. If you need a vehicle during repair, we help arrange it through your insurer’s rental coverage so you stay mobile.
You Pick Up Your Car.
The repair is done. You see your car the way it was before the storm. No filler. No color variation. No evidence anything happened.
PDR preserves your factory paint. “Like it never happened” is a technical result, not a marketing line.
We walk you through every panel before you drive away.
Final walk-through with you present. We inspect every repaired panel together before you sign off. You see everything we did.
No filler. No repaint. No guesswork. Your factory finish is intact. No blending issues. No color that shifts in different light six months from now.
Resale value protected. Filler and repaint show up on CarFax inspection reports. PDR doesn’t. Your car’s history stays clean.
Same Panel.
Same Paint.
No Evidence.

Hail-Active Metro
In The Country.
These are the numbers worth knowing before the next storm.
NOAA storm reports within 10 miles of Dallas. The most recent hit April 27, 2026.
Texas leads every state in hail damage. The June 2023 DFW storms alone produced an estimated $7–10 billion in insured losses.
Hail is a no-fault comprehensive claim in Texas. It generally won't affect your rate — but confirm with your agent before filing.
The Texas industry average. Photo estimates often come in 30–40% lower — they miss what PDR lighting finds.
Most PDR repairs wrap within 48 hours. A traditional repaint takes 5–10 business days, before storm backlogs add to the wait.
North Texas hail peaks March through June. Shops fill within 48–72 hours of a major storm.

Straight Answers.
If the answer to your situation is "don't use PDR," we'll say that. No hedging. No upsell. These are the questions we get.
Call with your questionGenerally no. Hail is filed under comprehensive coverage, a no-fault weather event. In Texas, comprehensive claims typically don't raise your rate the way collision claims do. Confirm with your agent before filing since every policy differs.
Not necessarily. In Texas, repair costs must equal or exceed the vehicle's actual cash value for a total loss declaration. If the market value is being underestimated, you can dispute it. We've seen repairable vehicles declared totaled, call us before you accept anything.
Yes. Texas law protects your right to choose your own shop. Insurers may steer you toward preferred vendors but cannot require it. Tell them you've chosen Demo Dent Dallas and give them our number. We'll handle it from there.
We discuss deductible assistance on your first call. The structure depends on your situation. We'll walk through it together rather than making blanket promises. Most customers pay nothing out of pocket.
PDR works the metal back to its original shape from behind the panel. Factory finish stays intact, and nothing shows up on vehicle history.
A body shop sands, fills, and repaints. Paint fades, filler can crack in the heat, and repainted panels appear on inspection reports.
If your paint is already chipped or cracked, PDR probably isn't the right fit. We'll let you know on the first call.
Most hail repairs finish within 48 hours. Heavily damaged vehicles may take 3–4 days. You get a timeline after the initial inspection. If your insurer covers a rental, we arrange that too.
Common. Photo estimates miss 30–40% of hail dents. The process for recovering that gap is called a supplement request, and we handle it as a standard part of our service. We document, submit, and negotiate directly with your adjuster. You make zero calls.
