Colorado’s beauty comes with a cost—hail. Every year, especially during spring and summer, Colorado Hailstorms enter the Front Range. These devastating hailstorms leave behind a trail of damaged roofs, shattered windshields, and dented vehicles. If your car is a recent victim, you’re likely searching for the best, fastest, and most cost-effective way to fix the damage.
Thats why we have created this complete guide on auto hail repair in Colorado—featuring everything you need to know about Paintless Dent Repair (PDR), your best option for restoring your vehicle without paint or body fillers.
Let’s break it down so you know exactly what to do, when to act, and how Epic Dent Pros can help.
What is Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) and Why Is It the Best Option?
Paintless Dent Repair is a technique that restores your vehicle to its original condition by gently massaging out dents from the underside of the panel. No sanding, painting, or fillers involved.
Why PDR?
-
✅ Preserves your factory finish (no mismatched paint)
-
✅ Insurance-approved and often fully covered
-
✅ Faster turnaround time (days vs. weeks)
-
✅ Eco-friendly (no chemicals or waste)
-
✅ Cost-effective
In short, PDR is the gold standard for hail dent repair—and it’s exactly what we specialize in at Epic Dent Pros.
Why Colorado is a Hail Hotspot (And What That Means for Your Car)
Colorado ranks #2 in the nation for hail damage claims, with most storms striking from May through August. Denver, Lakewood, and surrounding areas see the most hailstones large enough to break windshields and pockmark car hoods within minutes.
Most Common Hail Damage We See:
-
Roof dents and dings
-
Hood and trunk panel damage
-
Door and quarter panel dents
-
Chipped paint (if hail is severe)
-
Broken or cracked windshields
These damages may look cosmetic, but they can lower your car’s resale value, invite rust, or void warranties if left unrepaired.
How Do You Know If Your Car Has Hail Damage?
Sometimes it’s obvious—other times it’s subtle. If you’ve recently experienced a hailstorm, look for:
-
Small circular dents on the roof or hood
-
Wavy reflections under sunlight
-
Unexplained drops in resale quotes
-
Chipped or missing paint spots
