PDR stands for Paintless Dent Repair, a specialized technique used to remove minor dents and dings from a vehicle’s body without damaging the paint. The process involves using specialized tools to gently massage and reshape the metal back to its original form from behind the panel. Heat and reflection techniques are often used to help with precision. PDR is particularly effective for dents caused by hail, minor collisions, or other non-paint-damaging impacts, and it can save both time and money compared to traditional body repair methods.
Thanks to modern tools and techniques, our skilled body technicians can repair a variety of damages without the need for repainting the body panels. However, if the paint surface has been scratched, traditional body repair and refinishing may be necessary.
The cost of Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) can vary depending on several factors, including the size and location of the dent, the type of vehicle, and the extent of the damage. However, on average, PDR typically ranges from:
It's important to note that PDR may not always apply to your damage. It is important to bring your vehicle to our collision center for the most accurate pricing. PDR is often more affordable than traditional bodywork because it doesn’t require repainting, materials, or time-intensive labor.
