Dent Removal

Why This Service Matters

How We Work

Specialist people, proven processes and the right equipment—so you get quality results quickly.

1
Assessment & Imaging

Estimators capture high-resolution photos and panel measurements, checking paint condition, access points and OEM notes to confirm PDR suitability.

2
Clear Quote & Insurer Liaison

You receive an itemised estimate. We work directly with major insurers to streamline approvals and confirm parts ETAs if refinishing is required.

3
Access & Setup

Trim is safely removed where needed. Panels are cleaned, illuminated and mapped. We protect adjacent areas and mark high spots before repair.

4
Paintless Dent Repair (PDR)

Technicians massage from behind or use glue-pull systems to lift lows in controlled stages, preserving the original paint wherever possible.

5
Refinishing

Where paint is cracked or stretched, we prep, prime and refinish in down-draft bake booths with computerised colour-matching for an OEM-grade finish.

6
Systems & Sensors Check

If sensors or trims are disturbed, we scan and validate functions; selected sites perform ADAS calibration where required.

7
Final QA & Handover

A second-person quality check verifies panel contour, reflection and fit. You receive clear documentation and warranty details.

Capabilities and Equipment
Advanced PDR Tooling

Hardened rods, interchangeable tips and glue-pull systems move metal precisely without damaging factory paintwork layers.

Lighting & Reflection Boards

Multiple light sources and reflection boards reveal highs and lows, enabling accurate, repeatable contour levelling.

Plastic Repair & Shaping

Controlled heat, reshaping fixtures and plastic welding restore bumper profiles, tabs and mounting integrity reliably.

Down-Draft Bake Booths

Clean airflow and timed baking cure coatings for durable gloss, colour consistency and improved longevity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on collision repairs, alignment, paint matching, turnaround times, and insurer approvals.
