For dents that qualify, paintless dent repair can restore the panel while preserving the vehicle’s original finish. Advanced Bodyworks provides paintless dent repair in Round Lake Beach, Illinois, serving drivers across Lake County, including Grayslake, Mundelein, Libertyville, Wauconda, Fox Lake, Antioch, and surrounding communities.

A focused option for eligible dents

Paintless dent repair, often called PDR, uses specialized techniques to carefully work a dent from behind the panel when the paint and panel condition allow it. It is not the right solution for every impact, so our team begins with an honest assessment of the damage.

As Round Lake Beach's independent auto body and collision repair specialist, we explain the available options clearly. If PDR is a good fit, we will outline the work and expected result. If another approach better supports the vehicle, we will tell you why.

Hail damage repair in Lake County

A Lake County storm can leave a roof, hood, and trunk covered in dents in a matter of minutes. Hail damage is often a good candidate for paintless dent repair, because the impacts are usually shallow and the factory finish underneath is still intact.

When you bring a hail-damaged vehicle to our Round Lake Beach shop, we map the affected panels, assess the depth and spread of the dents, and tell you honestly whether PDR will restore them or whether refinishing is the better path. We can also prepare the documentation your carrier needs.

If a storm has moved through Round Lake Beach, Grayslake, Fox Lake, or Antioch, call (847) 924-6708 for a free hail damage assessment.
