Does insurance cover hail damage?

Hail damage is usually covered by casco insurance – the exact terms are in your policy. Third-party liability insurance does not cover hail. For a casco claim you pay us only the excess and we settle the rest directly with the insurer. Report the damage to your insurer and say you want the repair done at Fix Wheels – you have the right to choose the workshop. We prepare the calculation and insurers accept our quotes.

PDR – dents out without painting

If the paint and clear coat are intact, the dent is brought back to its original shape with special tools. No filler, no sanding, no paint – the factory paint stays, which matters when you sell the car, and the job is usually quicker than painting. If the dent has a sharp crease, the paint is cracked or the dent is on a panel edge, PDR will not work: then we do panel work and paint, matching the colour with a spectrophotometer. See also paintless dent removal.

How hail repair works

1) Send photos on WhatsApp +372 5455 4001 or come to Marja 9/2 – we inspect the damage. 2) We count the dents panel by panel and prepare the calculation in the insurer's system. 3) We communicate with the insurer and wait for approval. 4) Repair: PDR, plus panel work and painting where needed. 5) We hand the car back washed. You have a courtesy car during the repair.

Without insurance

If you have no casco, or there are only a few dents and the repair would cost less than the excess, we also do the job at your own expense. Send photos and we will tell you which option is cheaper. See also insurance claims.

FAQ

Hail damage repair – frequently asked questions

Does third-party liability insurance cover hail damage?

No. Hail damage is covered by casco insurance if your policy includes it. Third-party liability only covers damage caused by another driver.

Will the repair be visible after PDR?

If the dent is suitable for PDR, no mark is left on the paint because the paint layer is not touched. If a dent is not suitable for PDR, we tell you honestly before we start.

How long does hail repair take?

It depends on the number of dents and whether painting is needed. We give you the deadline together with the calculation.

Do I get a courtesy car?

Yes, for the whole repair period. Casco insurance usually covers it; we tell you in advance if it does not.
