Paintless Dent Repair and the Economy

May 8, 2008


Imagine driving down the street to drop your kids off at school when...WHAM! Your car is hit by a motorist who wasn't paying proper attention when pulling out of their driveway. No, the damage is not extensive. It is just a little dent. But, a little dent often comes with a huge bill. For many families the need to shell out hundreds of dollars to repair a dent can prove to be extremely cost prohibitive particularly in today's tough economic climate.

There is much in the news these days regarding economic downturns and problems. This is not an imagined crisis. That is to say, there are serious issues facing working people and it is the result of various "pinches" hitting the budgets of most families. For example, gas prices and food prices have started skyrocketing and this leaves many people with limited dollars in their savings. When people are in such situations, the last thing they need is to see their budgets busted by car accident related bills......


This is why paintless dent repair provides such an excellent alternative to traditional bodywork. After all, bodywork on a car ' even if the repairs needed are minor ' can cost a significant amount of money. There are parts and labor involved and that will always run costs up. Even if you have solid insurance, a $500 deductible means you will be forced to shell out $500. When a household budget is tight and credit is hard to come by, a $500 deductible can really be difficult to part with.

While paintless dent repair isn't free, it is significantly cheaper than having traditional bodywork performed. In fact, the amount of money that can be saved on paintless dent repair can reduce your body shop bills by 80%. Obviously, this would be a huge boost to a family that needs to save money as opposed to shelling out hundreds of dollars on a repair bill...especially if an alternative repair method is available.

Paintless dent repair basically molds dents back into their proper, original position. This is a radical departure from the "classical method" that replaced the dented area and then painted over it. Obviously, such a classic procedure means additional parts. These parts aren't free and their cost will be passed to the consumer. In the past, there was no way around this. Now, thanks to the great innovations of paintless dent repair the ability to have such work performed is quite possible and quite effective as well.

So, if you family is concerned about their household budget and are unwilling to shell out more than is necessary on auto bodywork, seeking the help of a reliable paintless dent repair service is highly advised. Really, do you want to spend more money than you really need to? Keeping a budget under control just makes solid fiscal and financial sense. In today's tough economic times such decisions are more important now than ever before. If that means changing your previous auto body decisions then so be it. The end result will be well worth it!
