Service overview

A thorough inspection of a hail-damaged car

After a hailstorm, a car can carry anywhere from a few to a very large number of dents. Most damage usually appears on upward-facing surfaces, but we check the whole vehicle. PDR lighting reveals even minor deformations and lets us sort them by size and level of difficulty.

Having a local workshop matters when the insurer has already produced an estimate and the owner wants to verify the real scope of damage before repairs begin.

Locally

PDR for hail damage

If the paint coating hasn't been broken, PDR can often repair many dents without repainting whole panels. With deeper deformations, cracked paint, or heavily stretched metal, we choose a different technology for that specific panel.

We don't assume a single method for the whole car. The bonnet might qualify for PDR while another panel needs a hybrid repair - or the other way round.

assessing hail damage under PDR lighting
documenting the damaged panels
repairing dents without repainting wherever technically justified
classifying panels for other technologies where the coating is damaged
handling private, fleet and lease claims within an agreed scope

How we map hail damage

During a thorough inspection, we don't focus solely on the largest dents. We check the car panel by panel under lighting that reveals even subtle disruptions in the reflection. This shows where the damage is isolated and where it's densely concentrated, which needs a different approach to planning the work.

This damage map also helps split panels by technology. Some may qualify for classic PDR, others for more complex repair. What matters to the car's owner is that the decision isn't made for the whole car at once, but based on the real condition of each individual panel.

What affects the scope and cost of hail damage repair

The key factors are the number of dents, their diameter and depth, how densely packed they are, their position on body lines, and the panel material. Access from underneath also matters, since repairing a roof may need different preparation than working on a bonnet or wing. Aluminium panels are priced separately due to the material's properties and the technique required.

With a local workshop in the Mińsk Mazowiecki municipality, we can verify all these factors during the inspection itself. This helps avoid a situation where a scope estimated from photos turns out to be incomplete only after the repair has begun.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where do you repair hail damage near Mińsk Mazowiecki?

At our workshop in Królewiec, within the Mińsk Mazowiecki municipality.

Is it worth inspecting the car after hail if only a few dents are visible?

Yes, because some damage may not be visible in ordinary light. PDR lighting lets us assess the whole surface.

Is a claim on comprehensive (AC) cover always cashless?

No. The settlement method depends on the policy, the variant chosen, and arrangements with the insurer.

Can every panel be repaired without repainting?

Not always. We classify each panel individually, based on the condition of the paint, the metal and access.

Do you count every single dent when there are many?

The scope of the assessment is matched to the scale of the damage. With very dense damage, structured estimation methods can also be used.

Can light hail dents be invisible in photos?

Yes. Minor deformations often only show up under a controlled light reflection. That's why photos are a good starting point but don't replace a full inspection.

Is it worth repairing hail damage before selling a car?

It depends on the car's value, the scope of damage, and the planned sale. Keeping the original paint through a correctly done PDR repair can be an advantage, so it's best to decide once you know the real scope and quote.
