If the windshield is weakened by a chip, fracture or hole from a hail storm, your safety is being compromised. To ensure occupant safety and the integrity of the vehicle, we a Linear Automotive follow the strictest guidelines of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. We use only OEM glass and use the manufacturers recommended urethane adhesives to replace your glass. Your safety is our primary concern.
From March through November is hail season, with multiple storms and tornados having the potential to produce hail and along with it hail damaged vehicles. Hail begins as tiny ice pellets that collide with water droplets. The water droplets attach themselves to the ice pellets and begin to freeze as strong updraft winds toss the pellets and droplets back up into the colder regions of the upper levels of the cloud and a cycle of freezing and adding more droplets continues until the ice becomes too heavy and falls to the earth and landing on your vehicle leaving dings and dents.
Linear Automotive provides certified technicians to perform PDR or Paintless Dent Removal on hail damaged vehicles. It is a specialized process for removing dents without the use of sanding, bondo or paint in the removal process of the dents. PDR is the most cost efficient method of dent repair available. Painting a single door (even for a very small dent) will cost hundreds of dollars. With Paintless Dent Removal, you will pay a fraction of that price for your dent repair. We reshape the metal without affecting the original factory paint finish of your auto. A vehicle with original paint always retains a higher value than a repainted vehicle. Additionally, since no auto paint, body fillers, or sanding work are required, Paintless Dent Removal is one of the most environmentally friendly options in the auto repair industry.
Even though Paintless Dent Removal is very successful for hail damage it is also very successful for smaller everyday dents that can occur. There are the parking lot dents and dings from shopping carts and bumpers; the driveway dings from balls, and bikes; and the anywhere dings and dents from driving about. If the dent was due to an accident, we can work with your insurance company for you, if involved. We also offer a blended service with PDR and body repairs. We welcome you to stop in for an evaluation for PDR service to bring back that pre-damaged look. If you decide to stay while your auto is being repaired, our customers enjoy a comfortable waiting area with a billiard table, large TV, computer stations, a kitchen, and comfortable seating.
