2. **Mobile inspection at your home or office** in Plano, Frisco, Allen, McKinney
3. **Photo upload** through our website (good for light damage; we may follow up for in-person inspection)
## What to bring
- Your vehicle (or detailed photos if remote)
- Your insurance card and policy number (we file the claim for you)
- The date and approximate time of the storm
## Why estimates from us are better than insurance "drive-throughs"
Many insurance companies offer a "drive-through" estimate at their preferred shop or claims center. These are notoriously **under-estimated** because:
- Lighting is usually poor (you can't see most hail dents in normal lighting)
- They use a 5-minute walk-around instead of detailed panel inspection
- They miss roof, hood, and trunk dents that require ladder or stand inspection
- They skip the supplement process for hidden damage
A proper PDR shop estimate is typically **30–60% higher** than insurance drive-throughs because we actually count every dent. That higher number is the real cost — and your insurance company is contractually obligated to pay it.

Frequently asked questions
Can hail dents be repaired without repainting?
Paintless dent repair may be suitable for shallow dents when the paint is intact and the panel can be accessed. A technician needs to inspect the vehicle to confirm.
Does auto insurance cover hail damage repair?
Coverage depends on your policy. Comprehensive coverage commonly applies to hail damage, subject to your deductible and insurer’s claim decision; confirm the details with your carrier.
What should I do after hail damages my vehicle?
Photograph the damage, review your policy, and arrange a professional inspection. You can request a free estimate or call VIP Hail Service for next steps.
