# PAINTLESS DENT REMOVAL IN PLANO, TX — FIX THE DING BEFORE THE LEASE INSPECTOR FINDS IT.

A garage-door ding or a parking-deck crease on a Plano lease car is cheapest to fix before turn-in day: paintless dent removal works the metal back from behind, so the factory paint the inspector checks stays original. Single dings run $75–$200 per dent cash for dents up to about half-dollar size (larger ones are priced after we see them, and trim R&I is added only when a panel has to come off for access, quoted first). A panel peppered by hail runs $750–$1,500 as multi-dent PDR. When the paint is cracked or the dent sits on a sharp body line, PDR is the wrong tool — and we say so before you pay. Free pickup and drop-off of drivable cars anywhere in Plano, plus a free loaner if the car stays with us.

TL;DR — Plano

Paintless dent removal (PDR) for Plano takes dents out without a repaint — the metal is pushed back level from behind the panel, so the factory paint stays original, which is exactly what a lease-return inspection or a trade-in appraiser looks for. Published prices: $75–$200 per dent cash for dents up to about half-dollar size (bigger dents priced after inspection; trim R&I only when access needs it, quoted first) and $750–$1,500 for a hail-peppered panel. PDR needs unbroken paint and a dent off the panel edge; cracked paint, sharp creases, or old filler mean conventional refinish instead, quoted from our [published dent repair ranges](https://dgcollision.com/services/dent-repair/). We pick up and drop off drivable cars anywhere in Plano for free — text a photo to (817) 907-2822 first. Car covered in hail?

Paintless Dent Removal For Plano

## WHERE PLANO’S DENTS COME FROM — AND WHY PDR FITS THEM

A lot of Plano’s cars live in parking structures. The decks around Legacy West and the Shops at Legacy, the corporate garages on the Toyota Motor North America and Liberty Mutual campuses, and the lots at the Shops at Willow Bend are where most of the dents we see from 75024 and 75093 begin: a neighbor’s door swung into your quarter panel, a pillar you clipped backing out, a cart that drifted across the row. Those are low-speed, clean-edged dents with the paint still whole — the textbook paintless dent removal job. Nothing gets sanded, nothing gets sprayed, and the clearcoat the factory baked on is the one the car leaves with.

That matters more in Plano than almost anywhere we serve, because so much of the city’s fleet is leased. Lease-end inspections are built to find two things: dents, and evidence of repair. A refinished panel answers the first question and creates the second — a paint-depth reading that doesn’t match the door next to it. PDR removes the dent without leaving that trail, which is why we push owners to fix dings before the turn-in appointment rather than after the bill arrives. Our answer on [fixing damage before a lease turn-in](https://dgcollision.com/answers/do-i-have-to-fix-hail-damage-before-lease-turn-in/) walks through how that charge usually works. The same logic holds at trade-in: an appraiser with a paint gauge finds nothing to discount.

Plano’s luxury and EV mix adds one honest caveat. Aluminum hoods, doors, and fenders are common on that end of the fleet, and aluminum holds less memory than steel and work-hardens as it moves — so an aluminum dent crosses into body-shop territory sooner, and we tell you at the first look whether yours still qualifies. Hail is the other Plano source: the National Weather Service log shows 18 days of inch-plus hail in or near the city since 2015, from golf balls at Park Boulevard and Preston Road in March 2016 to a 3-inch stone on the south side in April 2023, and 1.75-inch hail on the Richardson line during the April 27, 2026 outbreak. Light scatterings from storms like those are multi-dent PDR work; whole-car damage moves to our [Plano hail page](https://dgcollision.com/hail-damage-repair-plano/). Either way, the car doesn’t have to come to us — free pickup and drop-off of drivable cars covers every Plano ZIP, both sides of the Collin–Denton county line.

Published Pricing

## PDR PRICES FOR PLANO — AND THE DENTS IT CAN’T FIX

| Repair | Published price | When it applies |
|---|---|---|
| Single-dent PDR (cash) | $75–$200 per dent | Paint unbroken, dent up to about half-dollar size, reachable from behind. Oversized dents are priced after inspection; trim R&I added only when access requires it, quoted first. |
| Light hail / multi-dent PDR | $750–$1,500 | One or two panels with a scattering of small dents and intact paint — worked dent by dent instead of repainted. |

What we check before we quote. PDR depends on the metal still remembering its shape: the paint has to be unbroken, the dent has to sit away from a panel edge or a sharp body line, and we need a path to the back of it. Under the reading light we tell you which of those your dent passes. If it fails one — cracked or chipped paint, a sharp crease, an edge dent, or old filler underneath — it becomes conventional dent-and-scratch work, and we quote that from the published rows on our [collision repair page](https://dgcollision.com/services/collision-repair/) ($300–$800 for minor dent-and-scratch refinish, $1,500–$3,800 for fender or door bodywork) rather than forcing PDR on a dent that won’t finish clean. Every repair, from one ding to a full panel, carries our written lifetime warranty.

Cash usually beats a claim on a single dent. One ding almost always costs less than a comprehensive deductible, so filing would add a claim to your history and still leave you paying. Run your own numbers with the [file-or-pay guide](https://dgcollision.com/guides/file-claim-or-pay-out-of-pocket/) or the [repair cost estimator](https://dgcollision.com/repair-cost-estimator/), and read the full method on our flagship [paintless dent repair page](https://dgcollision.com/services/dent-repair/).

Plano Questions

## PAINTLESS DENT REMOVAL IN PLANO — FAQ

**Q: Should I fix dents before turning in my Plano lease?**

A: Usually, yes. Lease-end inspections commonly bill for dents over a set size, and a cash PDR repair at $75–$200 per dent is often less than the charge. PDR also leaves the factory paint untouched, so there’s no refinished panel for the inspector to question. Schedule it a few weeks before the appointment and text us a photo first.

**Q: Can you fix a parking-garage ding from Legacy West without repainting?**

A: If the paint isn’t broken, almost always. Garage dings are low-speed and shallow, which is exactly what PDR handles: the metal is worked back from behind and the original finish stays on the car. If the door edge chipped the paint, that spot needs refinish instead, and we’ll show you why before quoting.

**Q: Does PDR work on aluminum panels and EVs?**

A: Sometimes. Aluminum holds less memory than steel and work-hardens as it’s moved, so small, shallow aluminum dents can come out, but larger ones cross into bodywork sooner. The car being electric doesn’t change the method on an outer panel; the panel material does. We tell you at the first look which side of that line your dent is on.

**Q: What does PDR cost in Plano?**

A: The same published table we use everywhere: $75–$200 per dent cash for dents up to about half-dollar size, with larger dents priced after inspection and trim R&I added only when a panel must come off for access. A hail-peppered panel runs $750–$1,500 as multi-dent PDR. Plano doesn’t get a different price list.

**Q: Do you pick up cars in Plano for dent repair?**

A: Yes. Free pickup and drop-off of drivable cars covers every Plano ZIP — 75023, 75024, 75025, 75074, 75075, 75093, and 75094 — from your driveway or your office garage. If the car stays with us, a free loaner from our 50+ fleet comes with the pickup.

**Q: Can PDR fix light hail damage from a recent Plano storm?**

A: Often. A scattering of small dents with unbroken paint is multi-dent PDR work at $750–$1,500 for the affected panels. Hail is usually a comprehensive claim, and carriers commonly allow about a year from the date of loss to file, sometimes less — check your policy. On qualifying hail claims we cover the first $1,000 of your deductible. Whole-car damage is on our [Plano hail page](https://dgcollision.com/hail-damage-repair-plano/).

**Q: Is the dent repair warrantied?**

A: Yes — a written lifetime warranty, the same one that covers our collision work. A properly finished PDR repair puts the metal back in its original shape, so it doesn’t pop back. If a dent can’t be finished cleanly, we quote the refinish instead of forcing it. Bigger damage goes to [collision repair in Plano](https://dgcollision.com/collision-repair-plano/).
