    Auto Hail Damage comes in around 5th place in auto insurance occurrences related to dent damage claims. Certain areas of the United States are especially susceptible to yearly spring & early summer hail storms. Hail dent damage can be especially stressful for the car owner and be devastating to the pocketbook if the owner doesn't hold a comprehensive insurance policy on the damaged vehicle. Car hail damage is one of the leading causes of Denver's total losses. Even if the car is still drivable, it can be totaled by a severe hail storm. Most car owners do not know that auto hail repair cost is 100% covered under their comprehensive policy. Even better, insurance premiums will not be affected nor rise because of a hail damage claim. The only cost the car owner is responsible for in the deductible. The average deductible cost is $500. At Summit Hail Repair, we cover your deductible 100%.

  3. Everyday Door Ding Repair Cost

    The other cause of car dent damage is of the "everyday" variety. For example, everyday door dings are caused by parking lot door dings, runaway shopping carts, small stones, golf balls, baseballs, softballs, and vandalism. We would even put 'fender-benders' in this category. This category of vehicle dent causes can be repaired with paintless dent removal, but there are a few exceptions. In order for the repair to be "paintless," there must be no paint damage. Although we CAN remove the dent, the repair is not 100% as the paint will still have damage. At Summit Hail Repair, we work with some amazing local Denver auto body shops that can quickly and affordably do paint touch-ups and get your vehicle looking back to new! The only caveat is the original factory paint warranty will no longer be valid but the cost to repair is still relatively low.

    For example, most everyday door dings can be repaired in less time than it takes to get your oil changed and the cost won't require you to take on a second job. You can expect anywhere between $45 and $250 for these more minor types of repairs.
