Our story

A family business, focused on one thing

Going to a general body shop for hail damage is like taking a MacBook to a Microsoft store. We're the specialists — and specialization changes everything.

Express Hail Repair is a family-owned hail restoration company that concentrates exclusively on paintless dent repair for hail-damaged vehicles. That focus lets us manage insurance claims efficiently, preserve your factory finish, and deliver consistent, high-quality results — vehicle after vehicle.

Since 2020 we've restored more than 10,000 vehicles. But ask our customers and they'll tell you it's about more than the repair: we operate with structure, treat people like family, and restore vehicles the right way. Most folks come to us with hail damage and leave with a shop they trust for good.
