Auto Body Repair · Laguna Beach, CA
Serving Laguna Beach Drivers
Laguna Beach auto body shop searches lead most drivers to limited local options — which is why Laguna Beach owners of Porsche, Ferrari, Tesla, and Mercedes make the 18-minute drive to Dentco. For over 30 years we have been the trusted repair choice for Laguna Beach's coastal and luxury vehicle community.
Dentco is at 26945 Cabot Rd, Laguna Hills — 18 minutes via PCH north to the 133 inland, or a straight shot up the 133 to I-5. Most Laguna Beach clients drop off in the morning and have their vehicle back within 1–3 days.
Laguna Beach drivers deal with a specific set of conditions that accelerate vehicle damage — salt air oxidation on paint, tight canyon road debris on PCH, and parking damage from the compressed street parking in and around the arts district and Main Beach. Luxury vehicles also make up a large share of what we see from Laguna Beach.
The Bluebird Canyon and Top of the World communities bring regular Porsche, Mercedes, and Tesla repairs. We understand what these vehicles demand and do not default to repainting when PDR is the better answer.

Arts District Parking Damage
Compressed street parking and gallery/restaurant foot traffic near Forest Ave and PCH produces regular door dings.

What Laguna Beach Customers Say
Trusted by Laguna Beach Drivers
I was looking for a Laguna Beach auto body shop that could handle my Porsche properly. A neighbor sent me to Dentco. 18 minutes away, perfect paint match, and they told me upfront not to file a claim. I sent three people the next week.
