When people consider the accidents that could befall their vehicle, they often think of tree branches, careless people catching the paint with their keys, or the scratches and dents that can come with the everyday rhythm of life and work. One area you may have neglected to consider, however, is the weather, and particularly hail.

Believe it or not, this seemingly innocuous weather condition has the potential to cause a great deal of damage to your car, leaving dents and scars which seem expensive or time-consuming to remove. Luckily, that is not the case with Elite Hail International and our paintless dent removal process.

We offer expert repair service backed up by our experience, with over 17 years in the industry. We have seen, done, and fixed it all, and we offer thorough and professional service at bargain prices, allowing you to get back on the road in no time!

How We Repair Your Vehicle

Paintless dent removal is an ideal solution to the marks and indentations that hail may leave behind. It offers an innovative alternative to traditional sand, fill, and repaint methods, which may leave behind evidence or traces of the repair. This process can have a detrimental effect on the resale value of the vehicle.

Paintless dent removal, or PDR, is able to fix 80-90% of all dents, and is an ideal solution for a flawless finish. There is a simple process our technicians follow to implement PDR:

     1. Take an overview of the situation

In order to fix the damage, technicians will first need to assess the damage, including looking at the size and location of the dent, and the best way of reaching it. The area around the dent then needs to be prepared for fixing.

2. Secure access to the dent

Our technicians need to get behind the dent in order to smooth it out, and this may require the removal of features such as tail lights, body panels, and interior panels to ensure access.

3. Light up the workspace

To allow workers to see the area clearly, the space will be illuminated with LED or fluorescent lighting, or even reflective boards. This helps to create a shadow of the dent so that the technicians can tell by sight when they’ve solved the problem.

4. Use gentle pressure to remove the dents

PDR works by elevating precise areas of metal back to their correct height to eliminate the flaw. Technicians use metal rods and body picks from inside the body panel to massage out the dents. Smaller dings can usually be fixed in a day, while deeper dents may need several stages.

We Work With Your Insurance Company

If you have been involved in an accident or a hailstorm and your car requires repairs, the last thing you want to do is spend hours on the phone to the insurance company, learning the ins and outs and making sure you are covered. At Elite Hail International, we take care of this hard work for you by dealing with the insurance company.

The only thing you need to do is contact your provider initially to ensure that you are covered for hail damage; this is not universally offered as standard coverage. Then all you do is book an appointment with us.

Other Benefits

Paintless dent removal offers a simple a quick, easy process which gets you back on the road the same day. There are also a number of other benefits, such as:

• Costs are low. No painting is required, so this is an ideal solution if you are looking to reduce the costs of your repair.
• Similarly, you won’t need to worry about mismatched paint or discoloration; this offers a flawless result.
• PDR helps to maintain resale value of the car, since there will be no evidence of the dent after the process is complete.
• It keeps insurance premiums low, and you won’t need to file a claim.
• It can be used to tackle both large and small dents or to prepare a larger panel for repainting.
• The repair procedure is endorsed by many leading manufacturers.

What Can We Fix? 

As well as being effective, paintless dent removal is versatile and can be applied to a variety of situations, such as:

• Door dings and minor bodywork creases: whether you got too close to a stationary object or just caught another car while driving, don’t let your dent be an eyesore. PDR is the perfect solution.
• Large dents: As mentioned, paintless dent removal on smaller areas can help with larger panel repairs.
• Hail: perhaps most unexpectedly, this technique can also help to repair any damage done by hail, a less common source of dents.
