Dent & Ding Repair in Burlington, NC
Fast, affordable dent and ding repair for Piedmont Triad drivers. Small dents and door dings don't need a full-service body shop, just a free estimate.
When Dent and Ding Repair Makes Sense
Dent and ding repair covers the small stuff: shopping cart dings in a parking lot, a hailstorm that peppered your hood, or a minor fender bump that left a shallow crease. Most of these dents don't require repainting a whole panel or replacing parts, which is why they fall under lite body repair rather than a full collision job.
Drivers across Burlington, Greensboro, and the surrounding Triad bring vehicles in for dent removal after any of the following:
- A door ding from a tight parking spot at a shopping center or apartment lot
- Hail damage repair needed after a spring or summer storm rolled through the area
- A small crease or dent from a low-speed bump or backing into something
- Minor auto body repair paired with chipped paint repair on the same panel
- Sun-faded or oxidized spots that show up once a dent is smoothed out
- Dents discovered during a pre-sale inspection or trade-in appraisal
If you can press on the spot and it springs back into a rough shape, or the paint is still intact, there is a good chance our team can fix it without sending you to a traditional body shop.
Why Choose Us
Why Choose a Lite Body Repair Shop Over a Full Body Shop
A full-scale body shop is built for major collision work: frame damage, panel replacement, full repaints. That kind of shop often means longer waits, higher bills, and more back-and-forth with an insurance adjuster than a simple dent actually calls for. Cars & Truckware exists as your body shop alternative for exactly these smaller jobs.
Choosing us for dent and ding repair means:
-
Faster turnaround since we specialize in minor auto body repair, not full collision rebuilds
-
Free estimates before any work begins, with no pressure to add services you don't need
-
Paint-matched touch-up work when a dent has cracked or chipped the finish
-
Support with auto insurance claim repairs if your policy covers the damage
-
Walk-ins welcome for a quick look at your dent or ding
-
A family-owned shop that has served Burlington for over 30 years, not a corporate chain
How it works
Our Dent Removal Process, Start to Finish
Getting a dent fixed at Cars & Truckware is straightforward. Here's what to expect from your first call to driving away with a smooth panel.
- 01
Free Estimate
Bring your vehicle in or call ahead, and we'll take a close look at the dent, ding, or hail damage. We'll walk you through what caused it, what it will take to fix, and give you a clear, no-obligation price before anything happens.
- 02
Damage Assessment
We check the depth of the dent, the condition of the paint, and whether the metal has stretched. This tells us whether paintless dent removal will work or whether the repair needs paint touch-up to finish the job cleanly.
- 03
Repair Work
Our technicians use the right technique for the specific dent, whether that's careful paintless dent removal or a filler-and-paint approach for creases that broke the finish. Either way, we match your factory paint color so the repair blends in.
- 04
Final Inspection and Pickup
Most dent and ding jobs are completed same day or within 24 to 48 hours, depending on how many panels need attention. We inspect the finish in daylight before handing back the keys, so you drive away with a panel that looks like the dent was never there.

Been using these guys for over 20 years they have did everything from light body work to putting on step rails and bed covers. I have always been 100% satisfied with their work. I've read some of the negative reviews here and they would not have done damage to a car and not fixed it Barry is a honest and straight forward person.
