The best PDR companies invest in continued dent repair training

Not all Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) companies are the same. It's important to do your research when selecting a repair professional to take care of your investment. Some great ways to find a quality PDR company are to look at reviews, either on social media or right on their Google business profile, and check out what they post on their social media channels, looking for before and after shots of their work, showcasing their skills.

One more important way to evaluate a dent repair company before booking an appointment is to inquire about the specific training they've invested in to keep their technicians knowledgeable in the best ways to fix your damage with quality and precision.

The technician (and business owner) of My Dent Shop LLC, Stefan Esche, has completed many training programs. An extensive career in body repair, manufacturer certifications from VW/Audi, BMW, MINI, Tesla, GM, Honda, Rivian, Subaru, Toyota, and many more, have taught safety, quality, and manufacturer-approved repair methods.
