Hardings Accident Repair Centre, Luton
Dent repair in Luton typically starts around £85. Where the paint is unbroken, paintless dent removal massages the panel back into shape with no filler or respray at all, which is the cheapest and quickest option. Where the paint is cracked or the dent is on a body line, the panel needs filling, priming and refinishing, which costs more. Door dings, trolley dents and car park damage are the jobs we see most. Hardings Accident Repair Centre will tell you which method your dent needs, free, from a photo. Call 01582 477 801.
Guide prices only take you so far. The final figure depends on your car, the paint finish and how much of the panel is affected, which is why every quote here is free and given in writing before any work starts.
We cover Luton, Dunstable, Houghton Regis, Leighton Buzzard and Harpenden, with free collection and delivery across Bedfordshire on most repairs.
