How to Repair Fender Damage

There are a couple of ways that fender damage can be tackled. It all depends on the type of car you have and the extent of the damage. Our team is well-trained in the following areas so that we’re ready to provide you with accurate repairs.

Heat: Heat guns can be used to buff out dents on minor fender damage. This works well if the paint hasn’t been scuffed or worn off. We can use heat to mold the dents back into place. This happens when the plastic is warm and can be pushed back to its original shape. 

Fillers: Sometimes, the damage will happen in the form of holes instead of dents. The damaged area will need to be sanded down, and then a filler such as cement or epoxy will be filled into the hole. Once it’s hardened, primer and paint will be added. 

If your entire fender needs to be replaced, we’ll have to remove it from the car. We’ll order a replacement part if needed. We also handle paint and finishing work. This is an area that can be extremely difficult to do at home. Matching paint colors isn’t easy, which is why we also recommend calling our team to handle paint and finishing work. We’ll be able to create a fender that will blend in with your car, looking beautiful, shiny, and new. 

Why A Fender Repair Can’t Wait

Your fenders play an important role in ensuring sand, mud, rocks, liquids, and other road sprays are not being thrown into the air by the rotating tire. When your fender is damaged, it can push up against your tires, causing your tires to become damaged as well. This is why we suggest having your fender repaired as soon as possible. Delaying a fender repair can cause more costly repairs in the future for your vehicle. 

When your car has a fender dent, your vehicle is left vulnerable to rust and other cosmetic problems. These problems can reduce the resale value of your car. We suggest scheduling a fender repair with us as soon as you notice the damage to your car. During your fender dent repair, we will not only fix the fender dent, but we will also restore your car’s paint in the damaged area. Don’t wait till your fender dent causes more damage to your car, let a trained professional handle your fender repair!

Fender repair costs are highly variable depending on your car’s make and model. Higher-end brands require replacement products that are more expensive. It also depends on how much damage occurred and where it’s located. If the area is around your wheels, it may be more expensive, as it may accumulate more scratches and dents.
