Hail damage repair in Phoenix

Phoenix hail is a monsoon-season problem, and most of it is fixable with paintless dent repair: the dents are massaged out from behind the panel with no filler and no repaint, so your factory paint stays. It's priced per panel by dent count and size, and it's filed under your comprehensive coverage — not collision — so it's no-fault and usually doesn't raise your rate.

PDR vs. conventional repair for hail

Paintless dent repair (PDR) is the right answer for 90% of hail: the paint is intact, the dents are shallow and round, and we can reach the back of the panel. Your original factory finish is untouched, which matters for resale. Conventional repair (fill and repaint) is only for dents where the paint cracked, or on braced areas we can't get behind. Roofs sometimes need the headliner dropped for access; that's built into the quote.

What it costs

Light hail, one panel
A handful of small dimples
$150–$450
Moderate hail, one panel
Dozens of dents, some medium
$400–$900
Whole car, light to moderate
Hood, roof, trunk, both sides — typical insurance claim
$2,500–$7,500
Severe / large stones, panel replacement needed$7,500+

Per-panel PDR pricing by dent count and size; roof and aluminum panels price higher. Your insurer's adjuster uses the same matrix we do.

How the insurance claim works

  1. File under comprehensive as soon as you can. Hail is an "act of God" — no fault, and in most policies no surcharge.
  2. Tell the adjuster the car is coming here. You choose the shop in Arizona (A.R.S. §20-468). How that works.
  3. We count the dents under PDR lights, panel by panel, and send the adjuster the estimate with photos.
  4. Repair. One to three days for most cars. You pay your comprehensive deductible (often lower than collision); the insurer pays the rest.
Don't wait for the "hail-chaser" tents. After a big storm, out-of-state PDR crews set up in parking lots, take insurance checks, and are gone in three weeks. We're at 24th & Thomas year-round — if anything ever needs a second look, you know where we are.

Common questions

Will a hail claim raise my insurance rate?

Usually not. Hail is filed under comprehensive, which is no-fault. Check your policy, but most Arizona insurers don't surcharge comprehensive claims.

Can hail dents be fixed without repainting?

Yes — that's paintless dent repair. If the paint isn't cracked, the dent comes out from behind and your factory finish stays.

How long does hail repair take?

One to three days for most cars with PDR. Longer only if panels need replacement or the roof needs the headliner removed.

How do I get a quote?

Text 2–3 photos to (480) 690-8998 (one close, one from a few feet back, one at an angle) or use the form on our homepage. Same business day.

Can I pay cash instead of using insurance?

Yes. Most of these repairs land near or under a typical deductible, so we always give you a cash price alongside the insurance route.
