What Is Hail Damage Repair?

Hail damage typically leaves behind dozens — or even hundreds — of small dents across your vehicle’s roof, hood, and panels. Using Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) techniques, we carefully massage each dent out from behind the panel, preserving your car’s original paint finish and value.

Our process is non-invasive, fast, and approved by most insurance providers, making it the go-to solution for hail repairs.

Hail Damage FAQs

Whether you’re dealing with hail damage for the first time or you’ve been through it before, there are always questions. Below, we’ve answered some of the most common ones to help you confidently navigate the process:

What should I do first if my car has hail damage?

You’re probably rattled if you’ve just come through a hailstorm. Pull over as safely and quickly as possible, and assess the damage. If it’s safe to get out of the vehicle, do so and document the damage, if you can, by doing the following:

Stay safe: Wait for the storm to pass and then find a secure location to pull over. Before you leave the vehicle, ensure the hailstorm has passed and you have a safe place to pull over. Other drivers might be driving very slowly or erratically while hail is coming down.
Take notes: You can do this right on your phone. Write down everything you see, including other motorists who might be pulled over.
Take photos: Take photos of the damage immediately. Get wide shots of your vehicle and then move in for close-ups of the damage. Go over your car and look for dents and dings and any damage on the hood, panels, undercarriage, and any other damage.
Gather info: If other motorists nearby were affected, get their names or contact info if you plan to file a claim together.

Depending on the severity of the hailstorm, it might be challenging to do the above if you’re rattled. However, documenting what happened will be helpful later when dealing with the adjuster.

Will my insurance cover hail damage?

Most comprehensive auto insurance policies do cover hail damage. However, you’ll have to double-check your policy. If you have liability-only coverage, your hail damage won’t be covered, and you’ll have to pick up the cost of the repairs out of pocket. If you’re covered, you’ll typically just need to pay your deductible, and the insurance company will handle the rest of the approved repair costs.

Should I get an estimate before filing an insurance claim?

Yes, you should get an estimate before filing a claim to get a clearer picture of the exact damage, which will help you decide whether it’s worth going through insurance. If the repair cost is close to or lower than your deductible, you might choose to pay out of pocket. Some hail damage repair shops will even work directly with your insurance company, making for a smooth process, which makes the entire process less stressful and more streamlined.

Do I need to use my insurance company’s preferred repair shop?

No. You have the right to choose your own repair shop. Although your insurance company may recommend repair shops, they can’t force you to use them. A trusted, experienced hail damage repair specialist can still work directly with your insurance provider to handle the paperwork and ensure the repairs are covered. Always choose a shop you feel comfortable with that offers a warranty on its work.

How much does hail damage repair cost?

Hail damage can be costly to repair, especially if you don’t have insurance to cover it. Depending on the extent of the damage, the type of vehicle you have, and the type of repair you need, the cost can range from a couple of hundred to thousands of dollars.. Fortunately, if you have comprehensive insurance, most or all of the cost may be covered, minus your deductible. A free estimate from a qualified hail damage repair shop is the best way to get an accurate idea. However, in some cases, you can repair hail damage yourself.

How long does hail damage repair take?

Repair times depend on the extent of the damage to your vehicle and how busy the body shop is after the storm. Minor repairs might take a day or two, especially if paintless dent repair (PDR) is used. More extensive damage, like cracked glass or deep dents, may take several days to a week. The shop will give you a timeline during your estimate, and many can help coordinate with your insurance to speed things up.

Can paintless dent repair fix all hail damage?

Paintless dent repair (PDR) is a low-cost repair method that works best for minor dents that don’t involve chipped or cracked paint. It’s often the preferred choice for hail damage because it preserves your original factory finish. However, traditional bodywork may be required if the dents are too deep or the paint has been damaged. A technician will evaluate your car to see if PDR works.

Will hail damage affect my car’s resale value?

Yes. Unrepaired hail damage can affect the value of your vehicle. Minor dings and dents make a potential buyer think the damage wasn’t repaired properly. However, professional repairs can restore your vehicle and preserve its value, especially PDR repairs, where the paint wasn’t damaged. That’s why it’s smart to address the damage sooner rather than later.
