The hood of my car was damaged last week during the nor’easter storm. I sent a photo to Chris who immediately called back with a price quote. He came to my house the next day and the dent was repaired in less than thirty minutes. I would recommend this business.

My car was side swiped and the quarter panel over the wheel well was also damaged. After the Dent Doctor was finished, I was amazed at the results. You can barely see any of the previous damage. All dents are removed and even my paint looks normal again. He buffed out all the markings of the car that caused the damage. In addition, the price was right. I would highly recommend the Dent Doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Paintless Dent Removal (PDR)?

PDR is a specialized technique used to remove minor dents, dings, and creases from a vehicle without the need for traditional body filler or repainting. Our technicians use custom-designed tools to “massage” the metal back to its original factory shape from behind the panel.

Traditional body shops often fill dents with “bondo,” sand them down, and repaint the panel. This is time-consuming and can lead to paint-matching issues. PDR preserves your vehicle’s original factory finish, is much faster, and typically costs a fraction of a traditional repair.

No. Once the metal is professionally returned to its original state through PDR, it will stay that way. The repair is permanent.

We specialize in:

  • Door Dings: Small dents from parking lots.

  • Hail Damage: Multiple small impacts across the hood, roof, and trunk.

  • Creases: Longer indentations caused by shopping carts or bike handlebars.

  • Large Dents: Even significant damage can often be repaired as long as the paint is not cracked or peeling.

If the paint is severely cracked, chipped, or if the metal is sharply “stretched,” PDR may not be the best solution. Additionally, plastic bumpers with cracks or heavy structural damage usually require traditional replacement or repair.

Lease Return

The Dent Doctor Lease Return Guarantee

Returning a leased vehicle shouldn’t mean sweating over surprise dealership penalties. At Dent Dr., we erase the damage so you can hand over your keys with total confidence.

We are so sure of the quality of our work that we back our lease-prep services with our 50% Lease-End Protection Guarantee.

The Promise

If you hire Dent Dr. to repair dents and dings before your lease return, and the leasing company still charges you a penalty for the exact damage we repaired, we will refund you 50% of what you paid us for that specific repair.

How It Works

  1. Prep Your Vehicle: Bring your car to Dent Dr. before your turn-in date. We’ll remove the dents, dings, and creases that dealerships typically penalize.

  2. Return Your Lease: Hand your keys back to the dealer with peace of mind.

  3. Show Us the Bill: In the rare event the lease inspector flags a spot we repaired and charges you a fee, simply provide us with the itemized lease-end statement.

  4. Get Your Refund: We will promptly refund 50% of your Dent Dr. invoice cost for that specific repair.

Official Terms & Conditions

  • Scope of Guarantee: This policy applies exclusively to the specific areas and panels repaired by Dent Dr. It does not cover new damage sustained after the vehicle leaves our shop, nor does it cover existing damage the customer previously opted not to repair.

  • Required Documentation: To process a refund, the customer must present the official, itemized lease-end inspection report from the dealership or authorized third-party inspector clearly showing a charge for the repaired area.

  • Timeframe: Refund claims must be submitted to Dent Dr. within 30 days of the official lease return date.

  • Refund Limit: The 50% refund applies to the amount the customer paid Dent Dr. for the specific failed repair, not 50% of the dealership’s penalty fee. Maximum refund cannot exceed the total invoice amount for that panel.
