When do you need bodywork instead of PDR?

When the paint is cracked, chipped or scraped through, when the metal is torn or stretched too far, or when a plastic bumper needs refinishing. We still keep as much original paint as possible and blend the repair so it matches the rest of the car.

01

Repair the panel

Straighten what we can first, so less filler and paint are needed.

02

Refinish

Prime and paint only the damaged area, matched to your colour.

03

Blend and inspect

Blend into the surrounding paint and check it in daylight.

What bodywork do you take on?

Minor collision and cosmetic damage, done in our Maple Ridge shop.

We fix

  • Bumper scuffs and cracks
  • Scratches through the clear coat
  • Dents with chipped or cracked paint

PDR or bodywork?

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly. If paintless repair can do the job for less, we’ll recommend it before any paint work.

How much does bodywork cost?

It depends on the panel, the damage and how much paint work is needed. Send photos and we’ll quote it — and tell you if PDR could do the job for less.

Bodywork questions

All questions

Do you match the paint?

Yes. We colour-match to your car and blend into the surrounding panel. [Confirm process with client.]

Can bodywork be done mobile?

Paint work is done in the shop. Small dents without paint damage can often be done on a mobile visit with PDR.

How long will my car be in the shop?

It depends on the job and parts. You’ll get a timeline with the quote.
