Paintless Dent Repair

You can leave your door dings, minor dents, hail damage and other small mishaps to the paintless dent repair professionals at Caliber Collision. Since we don’t disturb any of the original paint, the process is quicker and less costly than other methods. Plus, our paintless dent removal services are backed by the same written lifetime warranty and satisfaction guarantee as all services we offer.

What is paintless dent repair?

Also known as PDR, this specialized technique works to remove any dings or dents while preserving the original paint on your vehicle. By carefully manipulating the metal exterior of your car with dent repair tools, our technicians at Caliber can get your car looking as good as new. Without having to match and apply paint plus a clear coat, paintless dent repair saves you time and money while restoring the exterior of your vehicle.

This removal process works particularly well on newer vehicles because their modernized paint systems respond well to our in-shop tools. The best candidates for PDR dent repair are instances where the paint remains intact, the metal hasn’t been stretched beyond its natural tolerance, and the ding isn’t on a body panel edge.

What factors affect how much PDR may cost?

The cost of paintless dent repair may vary based on a few factors that our technicians will evaluate during your initial assessment. For example, the dent’s location on your vehicle will affect the final cost because repairs on certain panels may require specialized techniques or additional time to reach.

The size and depth of the dent also influence the repair’s cost. While smaller, shallow dents from door dings generally cost less to repair, dents with deeper creases require more extensive work to restore the panel’s original shape. Caliber’s specialists will carefully evaluate all these factors and provide an accurate estimate for the proposed work before beginning any PDR repair work on your vehicle. 

Is paintless dent removal permanent?

Unlike other body repair methods that often require ongoing maintenance, paintless dent repair delivers lasting results that restores your car or truck to pre-damage condition. Once a dent is properly removed, it won’t resurface again. The factory paint finish remains intact to preserve your vehicle’s original protective coating and maintain its resale value.

Though the results of PDR dent repairs are permanent, the restored area remains susceptible to new damage just like any other part of your vehicle. Regular washing and proper vehicle care will help to maintain your car’s exterior appearance for years to come.
