Hail Damage And Paintless Dent Repair In Ft. Pierce, FL
We all love living in The Sunshine State for the obvious reasons: 24/7/365 outdoor lifestyle, beautiful beaches, and tropical living on the continental U.S. And when we think of the tropics, we are pretty familiar with the rain and hurricanes that are just a part of life down here.
But every now and then, mother nature catches us by surprise. Our vehicles left outside become the unwilling beneficiary of a dish served cold: Hail. Hail makes an appearance here in Florida when windy conditions send rain up into the higher atmosphere where it freezes, and plummets to ground. Hail comes down in the size of a pea to the size of a grapefruit and when it does, it comes down like rocks being flung from a slingshot.
Since hail isn’t the run-of-the-mill type of damage you might expect to see on your car here in Florida, a lot of people are confused about what they should do or that repairs are even possible! We make it easy. Our repair specialists have a keen eye to assess the severity and quantity of the damage so that we can present you, or your insurance provider, with an accurate repair quote.
There are so many questions that we hear when it comes to paintless dent repair that we thought it might be helpful for you to have this handy FAQ:
- What is paintless dent repair and how long does it take? Paintless dent repair is the implementation of various dent pulling techniques to ultimately restore body damage back to its pre-repair condition. Depending on the severity and amount of damage, it can take anywhere from a few hours to several days.
- What if something else is damaged in a hail storm like my windshield or headlights? We pride ourselves on the accuracy of our initial quotes, but supplemental repairs are sometimes part of the equation. If we discover that something additional needs to be repaired, you will be notified the moment we discover an issue. An adjustment to the overall work order is submitted and we proceed with the modification to the original assessment with the appropriate services outlined.
- How good will paintless dent repair look? It will look great. Period. It is important to note, however, that paintless dent repair is not inclusive of other wear and tear on your vehicle’s exterior. When we assess your car for hail damage, we will also look for other wear and tear items that are pre-existing. This way, you’ll have confidence in the quote, process, and end result. If a more comprehensive restoration is in order, we can look towards implementing conventional bodywork and repair at our collision center.
