How much does automotive hail repair cost?
The full cost of hail repair will vary quite drastically depending on factors like vehicle condition, make and model as well as the size and quantity of dents caused by the hailstones. Even the lightest of hail damage will cost about $3000 to repair with the more extensive damages requiring new parts or panels can cost upwards of $15000.
Don’t worry though, hail damage is fully covered under comprehensive coverage. Choose VIP Hail Service for the repair and there are usually NO OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS including a rental vehicle, insurance deductibles or repair costs.
Will filing a hail damage claim increase my insurance rates?
Not at all, ever. Hail storms are an Act of Nature that even the greatest weatherman can’t predict. Insurance companies will not increase your premiums or hold this against you in any way. If you have comprehensive coverage, hail repair can be an absolute breeze after a seemingly stressful situation.
Who pays the difference if an estimate from VIP Hail Service is higher than one provided by my insurance company?
Estimating the cost to repair hail damage is 100% subjective and will vary from each repair shop and insurance adjuster. Taking a look and providing an average cost from previous experience is not the same as a professional bumper to bumper inspection using lights designed for paintless dent removal, which is our process for giving free estimates.
With over 30 years of experience local to Plano we truly are experts and advocates for getting our customers the most out of their hail claims by negotiating these types of differences. We are well-known by most providers and communicate with them directly, on your behalf, to get additional repair costs approved.
If hail damages the paint on my vehicle will paintless dent removal be used for the repair?
Paintless dent repair is used specifically for removing the dents caused by hail but we are a full service repair shop with vast knowledge and experience in repairing even the most extreme hail damage. Whether your vehicle needs new parts, body panels, paint, or even new glass VIP Hail Service has you covered. If any of these are required our technicians will be upfront and honest with you for the estimated cost and time to repair.
Does auto hail repair come with any warranties?
Every vehicle repaired at our shop leaves with a lifetime warranty. One major benefit of paintless dent removal is called metal memory. This means the metal naturally wants to retain it’s pre-damaged condition and once we meticulously mend it back into shape the repair will last the lifetime of your vehicle.
How long do hail damage repairs usually take? Will I be without a vehicle?
There are many factors at play in reference to repair time that VIP Hail Service has no direct control over but we strive to ensure a quick and painless experience for each customer which includes repairing most hail damages in days, not weeks and getting you a rental to drive home immediately.
Variables that can sometimes cause delays are due to varying insurance procedures or having to order and paint new parts or body panels from more severe hail damage.’
Will I receive updates throughout the hail repair process?
Absolutely. We keep an open line of communication throughout the entire repair. You’ll be informed immediately if anything changes or upon finding unforeseen damage that could result in a few extra days to achieve a flawless finish for your vehicle. You’re welcome to call our technicians any time for any reason and you’ll also be notified of milestones reached during the repair, especially when your ride is ready for the roads again!
Are auto hail damage repairs reported to CarFax?
Routine hail damage repairs fall under the paintless dent repair category and PDR is NOT reported to CarFax. We do have to report a vehicle as totaled from time to time and if you choose to retain the vehicle in this instance only then will the hail damage be reported to CarFax. In short, if you choose VIP Hail Service to complete the repairs, your vehicle will retain its value and no one has to know it was in a hail storm. Don’t just take our word for it, see what CarFax has to say on their hail repair blog post.
