Having answers gives you a good idea as to how much the average hail damage repair costs, too, so you can prepare financially for any out-of-pocket expenses you’ll be required to pay.

What You Need to Know Prior to Having Your Auto Repaired

Most people like to be aware of what they’re up against when there is a cost involved. To ease your mind and prepare you for what’s ahead, we’ve decided to answer some of your most pressing questions. That way, when you come to us for an estimate, you’re fully aware of what we’re talking about when we discuss options with you.

Here are some of the most common questions you’ll have when your car has hail damage:

1. How much is it going to cost me to repair my vehicle?

This is often the most important thing that motorists want to know. The answer depends on how much deductible your insurance policy requires you to pay. If it is high, we offer a Deductible Forgiveness Problem to help take the burden off the repair expense.

2. What is my deductible?

You’ll want to check with your insurance company to see what you’ll be required to pay. Your policy should clearly state what the deductible is. This varies from company to company and depends largely on the type of insurance you cover on your vehicle. It should specifically mention hail damage repair as something that is covered by the auto insurance provider.

3. What is Paintless Dent Removal and why is it ideal?

Paintless Dent Removal, which is referred to as PDR, is required by insurance companies paying claims. It’s the most trustworthy way to have a vehicle repaired because it requires auto body experts to undergo extensive training.

4. How long will I be without a vehicle?

It depends on how badly your vehicle was damaged. If the damage isn’t too extensive, you should have your car, truck, van or SUV back within a day. We’re open evenings and weekends as a convenience to you. We know that many people work and go to school during the day. Keeping the hours we keep, allows us to work on more vehicles and serve more customers.

5. Can I repair my vehicle myself or have a friend do it for me?

It is not advisable to try to do this repair yourself even though many companies sell kits that claim to make the process easier. If you’ve never done this type of repair before and are trying to save money on out-of-pocket costs, trust the Auto Dent Specialists instead. Look into our Deductible Forgiveness Program so that you won’t take a risk and further damage your vehicle.
