How DentLID works

From dent to decision in three steps.

One clear request is more useful than describing the same dent repeatedly over the phone.

  1. 01

    Show the damage

    Add 2–3 photos: one view of the whole panel and one or two close-ups. Include the Orlando-area ZIP where the car is located.

  2. 02

    We check the request

    DentLID reviews the location and checks for an available independent PDR technician who may fit the job.

  3. 03

    You decide what happens

    If coverage is available, discuss the estimate, timing and final terms directly with the technician. Sending photos does not book a repair.

Honest limits

PDR preserves paint. It cannot fix everything.

A photo review is a first assessment. Panel access, stretched metal and previous repairs may only become clear in person.

Likely PDR fitFactory paint is intact

Door dings, shallow parking-lot dents, minor creases and some hail damage may be repaired without filler or repainting.

Needs another lookCracked paint or sharply stretched metal

A traditional body-shop repair may be safer when paint is broken, metal is severely folded or structural parts are affected.

Orlando cost guide

A useful range. Your dent sets the number.

Size matters, but panel location, depth, body lines, metal type and tool access often matter more.

Small door ding$100–200

Usually under two inches, with intact paint and straightforward access.

Medium dent or crease$200–400

Roughly two to four inches. Body lines, edges and aluminum can increase the work.

Complex or multiple dents$400+

Large, sharp or multi-panel damage requires a closer technician assessment.

These are Florida market estimates, not repair quotes. Final pricing is set by the independent technician after reviewing the vehicle and damage. See the complete Florida PDR cost guide.

Documented Orlando weather

Hail is occasional here. It is also real.

Orange County recorded 59 large-hail reports from 2011 through 2020 in the NWS Melbourne warning area study. That does not make every storm dent a PDR job; it gives Orlando drivers local evidence instead of scare copy.

Mobile PDR in Orlando

The repair may be able to come to the car.

Mobile availability depends on the technician, ZIP, damage and working space. Confirm the location before scheduling.

HOME

Driveway or residence

Often the simplest setup when there is room to open the affected side fully and work around the panel.

WORK

Workplace parking lot

Check whether the property requires vendor registration or permission before a technician arrives.

GARAGE

Parking garage

Low ceilings, columns and tight stalls can limit lighting and tool access. Mention the setting with your request.

HAIL

Multi-panel damage

Larger hail jobs may require a controlled indoor workspace. The technician should confirm where the work can be completed.

Questions, answered

Before you send the photos.

How much does paintless dent repair cost in Orlando?

Many small door dings fall around $100–200, while medium dents may run $200–400. Location, depth, panel access, body lines and aluminum can change the price.

Can a technician come to my home or workplace?

Possibly. Mobile service depends on technician availability, working space, property rules and the type of damage.

Can PDR fix scratched or cracked paint?

PDR reshapes metal; it does not restore damaged paint. A technician may decline PDR or recommend a body shop when the finish is cracked or deeply scratched.

Does PDR work on aluminum and Teslas?

It can, but aluminum behaves differently from steel and some panels are harder to access. The technician must confirm the specific panel and damage.

Will the photo estimate be the final price?

Not always. Prior repairs, hidden bracing, panel access and stretched metal can be difficult to confirm from photos. Any change should be explained before work begins.

Does DentLID perform or guarantee the repair?

No. DentLID is an independent matching service. Final price, scheduling, workmanship and warranty are agreed directly with the technician.

No booking · No obligation

Start with the dent, not a sales call.
