The difference between Paintless Dent Repair and Body Shop Repairs

  In the event of a dent, ding or hail damage to your vehicle, you may be questioning what the difference is between Paintless Dent Repair and Body Shop Repair. This is a very common question to ask and understanding the difference is crucial to saving you time and money. 

 When dealing with a dent or damage to your vehicle, it is important to know which option is best for you. This article will give you a better understanding of the pros and cons to both paintless dent repair and body shop repairs. 

 With paintless dent repair or PDR, you can get the dent or ding repaired without damaging the paint on your vehicle. This method is typically most preferred, due to it costing less and being less invasive. Paint repairs can add quite a bit of cost to the overall price of the damages being repaired on your car. With that being said, the method of paintless dent repair can only be used on dents and dings that haven’t already damaged the paint itself. 

 Traditional body shop damage repair is usually preferred when the damage to the vehicle is more extensive, such as large scratches or dents that have damaged the paint. Body shop repairs usually include sanding down the area that has been damaged and repainting it after the damages are fixed or replacing the parts completely. This method involves a lot more time and work, and can cost you more to have fixed. Body shop repairs also depreciate the value of your vehicle.

 At Axe-A-Dent, we offer paintless dent repair, as well as minor paint repairs. This allows us to cover more damage repairs in total and work on a larger range of vehicles. The decision is ultimately yours. However, if you still have questions about whether or not paintless dent repair is for you, give us a call today at 352-455-5994.
