Why PDR
Paintless Hail Repair That Protects Your Factory Paint
PDR, also called paintless dent removal, is how we handle auto hail repair in Lubbock. Most hail dents leave the paint unbroken, so the metal can be worked back into shape without new paint.
Our technicians use PDR rods to reach behind each panel and slowly push the dent out. An LED line board shows the exact shape of every dent. Where we cannot reach from behind, we use glue pulling to lift the dent from the outside.
BEFORE- Original paint stays on your vehicle Which helps protect resale value.
- No filler or color matching That can crack or fade later.
- Faster than a body shop Because there is no paint or cure time.
- Works on steel and aluminum panels Including hoods, roofs, trunk lids, doors, quarter panels and roof rails.
Our Hail Damage Repair Process
Free inspection and estimate. We check every panel under PDR lights, since many hail dents are hard to see in daylight. Then you get a clear hail damage estimate.
Insurance estimate review. If you filed a claim, we compare your insurer's estimate to the real damage and point out anything missed.
Supplements when needed. If dents, panels or labor were left out, we prepare a supplement for your insurance company.
Remove and install (R&I). Some dents need parts removed for access, like the headliner or taillights. We remove and reinstall them carefully.
Repair and final check. We repair each panel, then inspect everything again under the lights before you pick up your vehicle.
Help With Your Hail Insurance Claim
Hail damage is covered under comprehensive coverage, minus your deductible. Liability-only policies do not cover it (Texas Department of Insurance).
In Texas, you have the right to choose your repair shop. Your insurer cannot require you to use a specific one (TDI bulletin). You can bring a hail claim to us from any insurer, including State Farm, Allstate, GEICO, Progressive, USAA, Farmers, Liberty Mutual and Texas Farm Bureau.
We work from insurance estimates every day. Our goal is a complete and correct repair, not a rushed one.
What Does Hail Damage Repair Cost?
Every hail claim is different, so we do not list fixed prices. Your cost depends on:
- The number and size of the dents
- Which panels are damaged, such as the roof, hood or roof rails
- Vehicle size
- Aluminum or steel panels
- Access to the damage and any parts that need R&I
We give you an accurate number after we see your vehicle, whether you file a claim or pay yourself.
Can Every Hail Dent Be Fixed With PDR?
Most can, but not all. PDR may not work when the paint is cracked, the metal is sharply creased, or there is no way to reach the back of the panel. We tell you during the inspection if any panel needs paint or replacement.

Hail Damage Repair FAQs
Does insurance cover hail damage on my car?
Yes, if your policy includes comprehensive coverage. Your insurer pays the approved repair cost minus your comprehensive deductible.
Do I have to use my insurance company's shop?
No. Texas law lets you choose your repair shop. You can bring your vehicle to Turner PDR with any insurance company.
What if my insurance estimate is too low?
That is common after big storms. We compare the estimate to the real damage and prepare a supplement for anything that was missed.
How long does hail repair take?
It depends on the number of dents, the panels involved and any insurance supplements. We give you a time estimate after your inspection.
Will hail damage lower my car's value?
Unrepaired hail damage usually lowers trade-in and resale value. PDR keeps your factory paint, which helps protect your vehicle's value.
Can my car be totaled from hail damage?
Yes. If the repair cost gets close to the vehicle's actual cash value, your insurer may declare a total loss. This is more common with older vehicles and severe storms.
