Send the damage from your driveway. Straight on, then at an angle with a reflection running across the panel — that second shot is the one that tells us how deep it is.
New Richmond sits in open St. Croix County farm country with very little between it and a storm cell. When hail comes through, this is one of the first places we hear from — and paintless repair is almost always the right answer.
A hail-damaged roof, hood and trunk lid is the best-case scenario for paintless dent repair. The dents are shallow, round and sit in the middle of large flat panels with good access from behind — which is precisely the geometry the tools are designed for. Worked properly, the metal returns to shape and the factory paint is never touched.
The alternative is filler, sanding and repainting, which means new paint that is not the paint the vehicle left the factory with. That shows up on a vehicle history report, and it shows up in what somebody will pay you for the truck in four years.
A lot of what rolls through New Richmond earns its living. Work trucks pick up bed-side dents, tailgate creases, and door damage from gates, trailers and job sites — and taking a truck off the road for a week of body work is not a real option.
Paintless repair fits that reality. Most panel work is measured in hours, not days, and the truck goes back to work with its original paint and no downtime spent waiting on a paint booth.
You should never guess at a repair price, and you should never make the forty-minute drive to find out we can't help. Three steps, no games.
Send the damage from your driveway. Straight on, then at an angle with a reflection running across the panel — that second shot is the one that tells us how deep it is.
We come back with the price, the method, and the turnaround before you leave New Richmond. If paintless isn't the right path, we tell you that instead of selling you something.
Most single-panel work is finished the same day, so the drive happens once. Bigger jobs get a firm pickup time, not a "we'll call you."
Our shop is at 663 Valerie Ave in River Falls. Text photos before the drive and we will have a real number waiting.
Straight answers for the Highway 64 corridor.
That depends on your deductible, your premium, and how much damage there actually is — and it is your call, not ours. What we can do is scope the vehicle panel by panel so you know the real repair number before you decide. Hail is typically a comprehensive claim rather than a collision claim, but your policy and your insurer determine that.
Yes, and it is a different job than steel. Aluminum work-hardens and does not want to return to shape the way steel does, so it takes more heat cycles, more patience, and a lighter hand. Any shop that quotes an aluminum panel exactly like a steel one is not thinking about it hard enough.
Most single-panel repairs are hours, not days. Full-vehicle hail is typically one to three days depending on panel count. We give you the number before you commit so you can plan the week around it.
Yes. Fleet and multi-vehicle work is scheduled directly — text us the count and what you are dealing with.
