North Texas Hail

Big Storm? How to Access for Hail Damage

Has your vehicle been hit by hail recently? Sometimes a hail storm shows up when we least expect it, and we do not have time to move our vehicle to shelter. At Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas, we know that sometimes there’s just nothing you can do when it comes to damage from a hail storm. Once the storm has passed, it is important to do a thorough inspection of your vehicle to access for any damage. Here’s what to look for: 

Glass

First, look over all the glass on your vehicle. Check for broken, chipped, or cracked glass. Check your windshield, then check your side and back windows as well. Cracked glass could impair your vision while driving. Also, if it is cracked badly enough, it could shatter while the car is in motion making it a safety hazard to you and your passengers. 

Mirrors

Next, check your side mirrors. Are they still there? If they aren’t, I’d say it’s a safe bet the hail knocked them off. If they are still there check their joints. Just because the hail didn’t knock them off initially does not mean they have not taken on damage. Make sure they are still properly attached with no signs of potential failure. You use your mirrors to access your surrounding while driving. If your mirrors are damaged you run the risk of them falling off while driving putting yourself and others at risk. 

Dents

Finally, to thoroughly inspect for hail damage, check the body of your vehicle for dents. You will want to be sure to check the entire body. Dents from hail can be anywhere on your vehicle, but specifically check the trunk, hood, door jambs, and sides. Hail produces dents in all sizes, big and small, so if there is a dent on your vehicle it could be from a recent hail storm. 

If you do find indicators of dents on your vehicle, it is not a big deal! Dynamic Dent is here to make your vehicle like new. One of the largest benefits to repairing hail damage, in addition to general aesthetics, is resale value. Our Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) system can repair any dent related damage on your vehicle. PDR repairs tend to be quicker than your average body shop, and unlike a body shop, PDR does not harm your vehicle’s finish. 

Dynamic Dent is locally owned and family operated, and we work with all insurance companies. If you choose to work with us a rental car will be provided by your insurance, or us, at not cost. Repairs are guaranteed to be fully covered by your insurance, no out of pocket cost on approved claims with discounts, your insurance rates will not increase for a hail damage claim, and hail damage repairs are not reported to CarFax. 

Contact us immediately to start the claims process with your insurance. We look forward to getting your vehicle back to its former glory! 

4 Methods for Protecting Your Vehicle From Hail

It is spring in North Texas! You know what that means… unpredictable weather. Thankfully, if you keep up with the weather, you generally get a heads up about severe storms heading this way. If you haven’t experienced a hail storm yet, get ready! It’s important to prepare and have a plan already in place so you know what to do when you hear that a potential hail storm is approaching. When you know that it is on its way, then you have a plan and you can implement it. 

Personal Garage

For sure the best and easiest location to protect your vehicle is in your own garage or covered driveway. Your vehicle will be close by so you can keep an eye on it from the safety of your own home. However, this is not an option for everyone. You may not have a garage, or the space in your garage is already occupied and cannot accommodate your vehicle. 

Covered Public Parking

Your next line of defense is going to be covered public parking. While you are driving around go ahead and take note of local covered parking. Maybe there is a parking garage at a shopping mall or an office space. Then when a storm is fast approaching and you don’t have a garage at home that will work, you know exactly where you should take your vehicle. However, if you are out and about and don’t have time to locate covered parking, an overpass or gas station canopy will provide some protection. 

Large Buildings

If you keep an eye on the radar and know what direction the storm is approaching from, park your vehicle on the opposite side of the building. For example, if the storm is approaching from the north, park on the south side. This may not shield your vehicle completely, but you are using the coverage of the large building to hopefully keep your vehicle safe from the worst part of the storm. If the wind is strong enough the building may shield your vehicle from damage completely. 

Blankets

Finally, as a last resort, search your house for as many blankets as you can. Cover your vehicle with them and use duct tape to secure them in place. Be sure not to put the duct tape directly onto your vehicle. Duct tape could leave behind unwanted tape reside in unwanted places, damaging the aesthetics of your vehicle. The blankets should take the brunt of the hail and protect your car from dents. An alternative to blankets could be purchasing and utilizing a car cover. 

If you didn’t have time to formulate a hail storm plan and you find yourself with a vehicle that has sustained damage, don’t worry! Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas, is here to help. Contact us immediately to start the claims process with your insurance!

Here Come Spring Showers

As the weather gets warmer and North Texas starts to wake up, it is important to stay aware. Not only are we heading into hail season, but the spring season brings its own set of hazards. 

Winter Roads

Harsh winter weather can wreak havoc on roadways. Keep a close eye on new potholes or unevenness that have emerged since the fall season. 

Animals

As we in North Texas begin waking up, so does the wildlife. As you are driving be aware that animals may be starting to scavenge for food, and may end up in the middle of the road. Stay vigilant and do your best to avoid the critters. 

Rain/Hail

Because North Texas is prone to spring storms, this is one to pay extra attention to. Rain makes roadways slippery and reduces your vehicle’s tire traction and handling. Hail can shatter windshields and leave dents all over the body of your vehicle. Honestly, if there is a storm and you can stay inside, do it. 

Pedestrians

As the weather gets warmer people start to venture out. More people are walking, exercising, and biking, so there is an added danger of pedestrians cutting in front of you or getting in your way. 

If you do accidentally end up in a situation that has left your vehicle dented, call us at Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions in Lewisville, Texas.

Where Does Hail Come From?

Hail storms in North Texas are a matter of fact. You cannot always be sure when they will strike, but you can guarantee at some point they will. 

But how does hail form? 

Hail is formed when the winds going into a thunderstorm carry a raindrop into the cold air of the upper levels of the atmosphere. This causes the raindrop to freeze and a small ball of ice is created. 

Okay, how does hail grow in size? 

Hail grows when it encounters raindrops that are “super cooled.” Super cooled water means the temperature of the water is below freezing, but it has not frozen yet. When the super cooled water comes into contact with the hail they bond, thus making the size of the hail larger. 

So what determines how big the hail gets?

The stronger the winds that are going into the thunderstorm, the higher the hail will lift. This give it more time to connect with super cooled water and expand in size. As long as the wind keeps lifting it, it will keep expanding. When the hail finally gets to heavy for the wind, it will fall. 

It hailed, my car is damaged! What do I do? 

We’re glad you asked! Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas is here for you every step of the way. With our Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) system, we can repair any hail related damage your vehicle acquires. Often times, we even repair hail damage faster than a typical body shop, saving you time. 

How does PDR work? 

A highly trained PDR technician will use a set of unique tools designed to access the dent/s from the backside of the metal panel. The technician will then slowly massage and push to reshape the dented panel, restoring it to it’s original glory. 

Dynamic Dent - June 1.jpg

We all know hail is unpredictable, making it hard to plan for, but with us, Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, the fear after the storm is gone! 

Protecting Your Car From Hail Damage

Oh no! You’ve checked the radar, and a storm with potential hail is coming! You don’t have a garage or carport to store your car. What do you do? How can you protect your car? 

Large Buildings

Have any large buildings nearby? If the storm is approaching from the west, try parking your car on the east side of the building. Basically, you are using the coverage from the building to hopefully alleviate the worst of the storm. If the wind is strong, the building may completely shield your car from the damage of the storm. 

Blankets or Car Covers

Old blankets will work in a pinch. Lay them over your car and tape them down with duct tape. Just be careful where you put the tape. You don’t want the tape leaving any residue behind in unwanted places. With enough advance warning, or if you live in a hail prone region, you may benefit from purchasing a car cover. 

Covered Public Parking

As you are out and about it may benefit you to keep an eye out for any sort of covered public parking. Look for shopping center or mall parking garages. If the hail gets to you before you make it to the parking garage, look for any sort of shelter (i.e. gas station canopy, overpass). 

If none of the options pan out and you do end up with hail damage, do not despair! Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions in Lewisville, Texas is here for you. With our Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) system, we can repair any hail related damage on your vehicle. By repairing your vehicle with PDR you save time, so you don’t have to worry about missing out on other things.

How to Spot Hail Damage

Living in North Texas means you see your fair share of hail in the weather. At Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions we specialize in repairing your hail damaged vehicle with our simple process with guaranteed results. One of the largest benefits to repairing hail damage, in addition to aesthetics, is resale value. If it has been hailing it is important to be able to spot and properly identify hail damage to your vehicle, so you can get it repaired properly. 

Dents

Dents are the first thing to look for if you suspect hail damage to your vehicle. Dents can be located anywhere, but specifically check the trunk, doors and sides of the vehicle, and the hood. Any dent, major or minor, could be from the hail storm. You should also double check doorjambs. If the doorjamb is stuck or dented, that could also be a result of hail damage. 

Cracked Glass

Secondly, check for broken or cracked glass. The most obvious glass to check would be the windshield, but be sure to inspect the windows and mirrors as well. Severely cracked glass can shatter while you are in the vehicle posing a safety risk to you and your passengers. It also impairs your vision while driving. 

Mirrors

Lastly, check your mirrors. Are they still there? Depending on the severity of the hail storm, the hail may have knocked your side mirrors off. If your mirrors are still there, check the joints to make sure they are still properly attached to your vehicle. You absolutely do not want your mirrors shaking or falling off while you are driving down the road. 

If you find your vehicle with any dents from hail damage, let us repair it for you! Our Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) can repair any dent related damage on your vehicle. By repairing your vehicle with PDR you save time you could spend doing other things. PDR repairs tend to be faster than your average body shop, and unlike a body shop, PDR does not harm your vehicle’s finish! 

We at Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions in Lewisville look forward to working with you soon!
