Is Paintless Dent Repair Worth It?

Cars in Florida can take a real beating, especially in the summer heat. That’s why taking good care of yours should be a top priority. If you really want to protect your investment, that means not only getting your car detailed and serviced regularly, but also periodically checking in on its overall condition and paying attention to the details. There comes a time in every car’s life where it needs some TLC from its owner, and this includes removing dents from your car before they permanently lower your car’s value.

While fixing some dents does require paint work, at The Dent Trooper, we exclusively pop out car dents that don’t involve paint damage—making us some of the most highly skilled dent removers in Central Florida.

If you have a dent in your car that does not impact your car’s paint job, the professionals at The Dent Trooper are on standby to restore it to its former glory. We offer mobile paintless dent repair (PDR) services for cars in Tampa Bay, and can come to your home or business and remove dents without even touching your paint job. All you have to do is snap some pics and send us your dents!

If you’re not familiar with the brilliant effectiveness of paintless dent repair services, you’re not alone. The technology is fairly advanced and very few professionals—even at the best body shops in Central Florida—know how to perform the procedure. Those who do know how to remove dents without ruining the paint are often given very little time to do so properly due to volume.

The Dent Trooper is different. We’ve spent more than a decade honing our paintless dent repair process and specialize in providing the best mobile dent removal services everywhere from Citrus County to Sarasota, including Tampa Bay.

We carve out enough time to ensure each customer is given the one-on-one attention they deserve from the top auto-body professionals in Florida. We also devote enough time to each project to ensure everything is done to perfection—but we’re still usually able to take care of your dents within the span of a few hours or perhaps a single day or two.

We pride ourselves on offering white glove service to our busy clientele, who simply send us pics of their car dents (new or old—but without paint damage) and await a visit from The Dent Trooper. Yes, that’s right—with mobile PDR services, you can now get dents removed and preserve the value of your car without ever leaving the comfort of your home or office. Talk about multi-tasking!

The paintless dent repair process may sound too good to be true, but it is not. In fact, The Dent Trooper uses PDR to repair dents and hail dings on cars that don’t have paint damage. Using a variety of tools, we access panels from behind to push dents out of cars—sometimes utilizing a special glue so as to not impact or ruin the paint. This is a labor-intensive operation that should only be undertaken by a highly trained mechanic, like the ones you’ll work with when The Dent Trooper stops by.

While getting a dent kit and trying to figure out how to do paintless dent repairs yourself may sound nice, there’s a lot at risk and it’s harder than it looks. If you’re trying to keep your CARFAX report clean and keep your car in mint condition, your best bet is to protect your investment by bringing in PDR experts who’ve been removing dings like these for more than a decade. Don’t trust your car to just anyone—yourself included! Let The Dent Trooper take care of it instead.

You wouldn’t trust your car with just anyone, which is why clients choose The Dent Trooper to take care of their most prized possessions. Whether you have an antique car or one that just came off the lot, we treat your automobile with the utmost respect and strive for 100% customer satisfaction. Unless your car is totaled or has paint damage, there is a good chance we’ll be able to restore your car to perfection (and if not, to near perfection, meaning that only very experienced eyes would notice anything had ever happened—if they noticed anything at all!).

But because we strive for perfection, our services are priced accordingly. We all know that you get what you pay for, which is why our mobile team of experts provides top-tier services that are priced per project.

We consider the size and location of your dent—as well as your geographic location—before giving you a quote, with prices starting as low as $160.

Insurance companies know that paintless dent removal is a well-established method for popping out dents in certain (but not all) situations and recognize PDR as a legitimate form of repair. It is common for our clients to make insurance claims after minor accidents or hail damage, and our office is able to communicate directly with your insurance company to assist with the car repair process.

The Dent Trooper specializes in restoring cars with dents, especially those that have been baking in the Florida sun, and we know just how important your paint job is to you. Sure, getting your car detailed is easy, but getting paintless dent repairs done right is tricky. With The Dent Trooper, you don’t have to worry about commuting across Central Florida and getting a loaner (or a ride) just to fix a dent.
