Start by gathering all necessary information, including your insurance policy number, details of the hailstorm, and photos of the damage. Then, visit our Claims Assistance page to find your insurance provider and submit your claim online.

Alternatively, you can call your insurance agent and they can walk you through how to file a claim for your auto hail damage.

Once your claim is filed, contact PDRTX immediately. The sooner we get involved, the sooner we can coordinate with your insurance company to ensure that everything is handled properly. We’ll keep you informed every step of the way, making sure that your claim is processed quickly and efficiently.

"Fast, effective and fairly priced.  Amazing work on my 2019 Toyota Highlander. Less than an hour to remove a large dent caused by a fallen garage cabinet on a pearl white finished fender.   Could have been so expensive to fix but Jesse did his magic!!!"

"Jesse hooked it up, did a decent amount of work free of charge and made my car look better and more new than it did before somehow. 10/10 recommend him for anyone need hail dent repair or any auto-body work in general!"

Tyler Herrick

Hail Damage Repair

"Joel and the team at PDRTX were great. Our Tesla was damaged from a hail storm and we found it difficult getting places to give us quotes for repair. Not only did PDRTX get us in quickly, they also worked directly with our insurance, and did a phenomenal job getting the car back to new. PDRTX will now be the first shop we call when we need hail damage and dents fixed!"

"Honestly I would give PDRTX 10 stars if I could. Took my brand new 2023 full size Range Rover there for hail repair & everybody there was amazing. From the initial call with Jesse, to Joel, Joey & Jayden. The Range looks brand new again & they kept it garaged & indoors the entire time as promised. I highly recommend PDRTX. A++"
