FAQ'S
ABOUT PDR: Frequently asked questions
Choosing the right way to fix your vehicle can be a minefield of conflicting advice. Whether you are worried about protecting your car’s resale value, understanding the cost vs. your insurance excess, or simply wondering how mobile PDR works on your driveway, we believe in total transparency. Below, we’ve answered the most common questions from customers across Kent to help you understand why Paintless Dent Removal is the smartest, fastest, and most cost-effective choice for your vehicle.
Q: How much does Paintless Dent Removal cost compared to a body shop? A: Typically, PDR is 50% to 70% cheaper than traditional body shop methods. Because we don't use paints, fillers, or heavy machinery, we pass those savings directly to you. Most repairs cost significantly less than the average insurance excess.
Q: Will my car's paint be damaged during the repair? A: No. The "Paintless" in PDR means we keep your original factory finish 100% intact. We use specialised tools to massage the metal from behind the panel. This is actually the safest way to repair a dent while maintaining your vehicle's value.
Q: Can PDR help me avoid expensive penalties on a lease or PCP return? A: Absolutely. This is one of our most popular services across Kent. Leasing companies are notorious for charging "premium" body shop prices for minor shopping trolley dings and door creases during end-of-contract inspections. By using our mobile PDR service before you hand the car back, you can save hundreds of pounds in refurbishment charges. It is the most cost-effective way to ensure your vehicle meets "Fair Wear and Tear" standards without an insurance claim.
Q: Does PDR work on modern aluminum panels found on modern vehicles? A: Yes, it does—though it requires much higher skill. Many newer vehicles (especially Teslas, Audis, and Range Rovers) use aluminum panels, which are "stiffer" and have less "memory" than traditional steel. We are specifically trained in aluminum dent repair, using specialised tools to massage the metal back to its original shape. Whether your car is steel or aluminum, we can restore the factory finish without compromising the panel's integrity.
Q: What happens if it’s raining on the day of my mobile appointment? A: Because we are a professional mobile dent repair service, we are used to the Kent weather! All we need to perform a flawless repair is a dry area to work in. If you have a garage or a carport, we are good to go regardless of the weather. If you don't, we can often work under a portable professional shelter or, in cases of extreme wind or torrential rain, we will simply rearrange your appointment for the next available dry slot at no extra cost to you.

ABOUT US: Who is Kent Dent Repair?
"I’ll be honest: I wish I’d started my journey in Paintless Dent Removal much earlier in life. I absolutely love what I do. There is a genuine "magic" to restoring a car without a drop of paint, and after over 10 years as a PDR specialist, that feeling hasn't worn off. My goal isn't just to fix a dent; it’s to provide the kind of service that I’d want for my own family’s vehicles. Before specialising in PDR, I spent years in the high-pressure world of fleet management, looking after everything from local taxis to high-end chauffeur vehicles. That background taught me two things: perfection is non-negotiable, and time is money. I know that when your car is damaged, you want it fixed properly, professionally, and without the week-long headache of a body shop. When I’m not out on the road across Kent, I’m a proud father of two living in Sittingbourne with my wife. Being a local family man, my reputation in the community means everything to me. Whether you’ve got a minor door ding or a complex crease, you’re not just getting a technician—you’re getting over a decade of expertise from someone who truly cares about the craft."
