Paintless Dent Repair in Carrollton, TX
Paintless dent repair (PDR) removes dents, dings, and hail damage by massaging the metal back to shape from behind the panel — no filler, no sanding, no repainting. Westway Collision Center in Carrollton, TX uses precision PDR tooling to preserve your original factory paint, which protects both your warranty and your resale value.
How much does paintless dent repair cost?
PDR typically costs depending on dent size, depth, and location — and estimates at Westway are always free.
Pricing is driven by access and severity: a shallow door ding on a flat panel is quick; a dent on a double-walled quarter or a sharp body-line crease takes specialist time. Hail damage is quoted per vehicle after a full dent-mapping under PDR lights, and comprehensive insurance usually covers storm damage — we handle that claim for you.
Will PDR damage or crack my factory paint?
No — PDR preserves the original paint completely, which is precisely why manufacturers and collectors prefer it over conventional body work.
The technique uses polished rods and tabs to apply controlled pressure from behind (or glue-pulling from the front), working the metal in small increments. Because nothing is sanded or filled, the factory clear coat — the most durable coating your car will ever have — stays untouched. For luxury and exotic vehicles, keeping original paint is the single biggest protector of resale value.
How long does paintless dent repair take?
Single dents and dings are often repaired the same day; full hail repairs take longer depending on dent count.
Because there is no curing or blending stage, PDR is the fastest professional repair that exists. Drop the car in the morning and a typical door ding is gone by afternoon. Multi-panel hail work is scheduled after dent mapping so you get an honest delivery date up front — and a loaner or rental if you need one while we work.
