Assessment
The certified technician will assess your car and look for damage using special PDR UV lighting. This has to be done in person and not through pictures that you take. Seeing the car in person, the PDR specialist can show you the actual damage and let you know what you’re dealing with.
-
How long do estimates take?
An initial estimate typically takes 20-45 minutes to write up. The initial estimate may not include
parts pricing because that process requires calling up your car dealership and getting part prices
and availability. This is typically done when you are getting the actual dent repair done and takes
around 30 minutes.

Why are insurance companies’ estimates always substantially lower than your costs?
Insurance company adjusters never get estimates right because they are not trained and don’t have the proper equipment or specialized PDR lighting to assess the hail damages; therefore, they tend to miss many of the dings on the vehicle. They may write up that there is about 10 dents, when in reality it may be closer to 50. This is a very common theme.

The insurance company said I need to go to their approved or preferred shop. Can I still use you?
You can get an estimate for hail damage for your vehicle at any shop. If your insurance company
tells you that you can only go to their authorized shops or they won’t cover the repairs, know
that this tactic is called “steering”, which is illegal in South Dakota.
Most dent repair shops, including Sioux Falls Dent Repair, offer a lifetime warranty on repairs. We even offer you a written warranty card for peace of mind. As for additional costs, sometimes there is an element of negotiation with insurance companies, but it isn’t something that will cost you much in the long run.
If anything, preferred shops cut corners to save money for the insurance company, and this can mean poor results.
Why should someone take their vehicle to the Sioux Falls Dent Repair?
If you want accurate estimates for the hail damage sustained on your car, you need a professional PDR-certified technician to look at it in person. Insurance companies will always underestimate the damage and compensate you accordingly.
Do not let them get away with your deserved compensations and “steer” you into insurance pitfalls. Get an estimate at Sioux Falls Dent Repair today! If you want to learn more about hail damage repairs or about paintless dent repair with Sioux Falls Dent Repair,Click Here!
