Fortunately, paintless dent removal and other mobile dent repair services eliminate many of the high costs associated with accidents and insurance deductibles. In fact, at roughly 70 percent savings from what you can expect to pay at a traditional auto body shop, paintless dent removal is one of the best repair options currently on the market.
Sidestepping the Insurance Issue with Paintless Dent Removal
The minor dents that occur from wayward shopping carts, small rear-end accidents, and debris from the roads are part of the coverage offered by most insurance policies. Because many insurance companies build their quotes based on services from traditional auto body shops, however, they may estimate the costs to be anywhere from several hundred to several thousands dollars worth of work. That's why they encourage higher deductibles on your policy; according to their calculations, you'll save money even with a $500 deductible.
However, this reasoning only works when you take your car, truck, or SUV to a traditional auto body shop. If you consider paintless dent removal or any of the other dent repair services offered by a reputable mobile paintless dent repair company, you're looking at costs that are much, much lower. The experienced professionals at these facilities are trained to work with your vehicle's existing materials to get the most effective results as quickly as possible. You get a more polished finish with minimal operating costs. In fact, most repairs start from $99 and up for door panels.
With these kinds of low figures, you can get the same great results you expect from a more expensive auto body shop, but without the need to tap into your insurance policy. This means that instead of paying a high deductible and facing increased insurance rates, you get the dent removal repairs you need without any lasting monetary repercussions.
By choosing a mobile dent repair company you trust, you get the further benefits of guaranteed, impeccable results. Make a call today to discuss whether or not going through your insurance is the best solution for you. You might even be able to make an immediate appointment for the friendly professionals to come to your home or office to do the repairs, saving you time in addition to saving you money.
