Why should I choose Daly’s PDR over competitors?


As a locally owned and operated business, I take pride in being both the owner and the one personally handling your repairs. My passion for what I do drives me to offer efficient, high-quality service at a price that’s truly affordable.

What is Paintless Dent Repair (PDR)?

Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) is a method of removing dents from a vehicle without using paint, fillers, or chemicals. It involves carefully massaging the metal back into its original shape.

How is PDR different from traditional dent repair?

PDR is faster, more affordable, and doesn’t require repainting, which avoids issues like color mismatching. It also preserves the original paint and is environmentally friendly.

How long does the PDR process take?

Most small jobs can be completed in 2-4 hours. Larger or more complex repairs may take up to a day.

How long have you been in business?

Daly’s Paintless Dent Repair has been in business for three years, but we bring 29 years of auto body repair experience.

Are you certified?
