Expert bumper repair at often half the price of big-box shops — cracks, scrapes, dents, and full replacements, done right the first time.
Get a Free EstimateA cracked, scraped, or dented bumper is one of the most common types of vehicle damage we see — and one of the most misunderstood when it comes to repair options. Whether you backed into a pole, got rear-ended at a stoplight, or picked up a parking lot scrape, DentCo repairs bumpers to like-new condition using OEM-quality materials, without the inflated pricing you'll find at big-box body shop chains.
Plastic welding and reinforced backing restore structural integrity before repainting, so the repair holds — not just cosmetic filler.
Surface-level sanding, filler, and color-matched repaint — usually the fastest, most affordable repair category.
Heat and pressure correction techniques often avoid the need for a full panel replacement.
Reflectors, sensors, and mounting tabs are inspected and replaced individually, not swapped as a whole assembly by default.
When damage is too extensive to repair, we replace using OEM or OEM-equivalent parts, matched to factory finish.
We check the reinforcement bar, absorbers, and sensors underneath — not just the visible cosmetic layer.
Bumper and body repair is our core focus every day, not one of many rotating tasks.
We evaluate every job for repair before replacement — usually cheaper and just as durable.
We source parts competitively instead of defaulting to the highest-margin option.
Most repairs complete in 1–3 days versus 1–2 weeks at larger shops.
