HAIL DAMAGE REPAIR.
Storm Damage & Mass PDR Restoration

HAIL DAMAGE REPAIR.
RESTORE HUNDREDS OF DENTS IN HOURS.

Severe summer hail storms leave vehicle hoods, roofs, and trunk lids peppered with micro-impacts. We use specialized mass-PDR techniques to restore panels with zero body filler or repainting.

Storm Catastrophe Recovery

MASS PDR DENT RESORPTION

A single hail storm can generate 50 to 500+ micro-craters across horizontal vehicle panels. Using specialized high-frequency LED line boards and customized glue-pulling arrays, we massage metal back into shape without compromising the vehicle's structural integrity.

Zero Bondo or Body Fillers

Preserves original factory sheet metal elasticity, preventing cracked body filler years down the road.

Maintains Factory Anti-Corrosion E-Coat

Avoids repainting entire roofs and quarter panels, preserving original factory corrosion protection.

Direct Insurance Storm Billing

We work directly with Intact, Desjardins, Beneva, Aviva, and TD to expedite storm catastrophe approvals.

Aluminum & Roof Restorations

LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM & ROOF PANEL MASTERY

Modern vehicles frequently utilize aluminum hoods and high-strength steel roof structures that behave differently under hail impact tension.

Thermal Induction Metal Shrinking

Uses electromagnetic induction heating to shrink stretched metal crowns without burning paint.

Roof Rail & Pillar Glue-Pulling

Specialized cold and hot-melt glue tabs pull out dents on double-walled roof rails where internal rod access is impossible.

Molding & Trim Protection

Careful removal and reinstallation of roof ditch moldings, roof racks, and sunroof assemblies.

Q&A

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers regarding auto collision, insurance claims, paint matching, and warranties in Quebec.

01. Does my auto insurance cover hail damage in Quebec?

Yes. If your policy includes 'Comprehensive' or 'All Perils' coverage (Section B), hail damage is covered. It is considered a 'no-fault' weather event and will not increase your insurance premium.

02. Can hail damage on aluminum hoods be repaired with PDR?

Yes. Although aluminum has less elasticity than steel, our specialized aluminum PDR tooling and heat induction systems allow us to massage aluminum hail dents flawlessly.

03. How long does a full hail damage repair take?

Most hail-damaged vehicles with 50 to 200 dents are fully repaired within 2 to 4 business days, significantly faster than traditional body shop repainting (which can take 2-3 weeks).

04. Will the dents come back after being parked in the sun?

No. PDR permanently releases the locked stress within the metal. Once the sheet metal returns to its original factory contour, it remains stable under all weather extremes.
