Hail Damage Repair for a 2016 Chevrolet Silverado in Ottawa, Kansas

This black Silverado took a heavy storm in Ottawa, at the southern reach of our service area. Black paint hides nothing, and the owner — a rural property owner who parks the truck outside — found the hood, cab roof, and bed thoroughly pelted. Hail damage repair on a full-size truck this size is a job we make the drive for.

The dent count pushed this toward severe hail damage repair. Our LED inspection found 156 dents, several deep enough for patient glue-pull work alongside standard rods. The black paint never cracked, keeping it a clean paintless dent repair job. Our severe hail damage repair page shows what we recover even when a truck looks written off.

One phone call from Ottawa and we ran the route south. We picked the Silverado up, documented all 156 dents in CCC ONE format, and submitted a supplement when the first estimate came in light — standard on hail this heavy. Comprehensive insurance covered the repair and most customers pay only the deductible. Our hail damage insurance claim hub walks through the supplement process.

The Silverado went back to Ottawa ready to work. Factory black paint intact, no repaint, no CARFAX flag, back on the road in four days. We make the drive for hail damage repair in Ottawa on a regular storm-season route. For similar jobs, see how we restored a 2015 Ram 1500 in Smithville or a 2015 Toyota Tacoma in Raytown.

Ottawa is a drive, but a full-size truck this beat up was worth making it for. The owner figured a hail job that size meant either a long haul north or a body shop that would never fully finish it. Instead we ran the route south, pulled all 156 dents, and submitted the supplement so every panel got covered. The factory black stayed original, the lifetime warranty came standard, and comprehensive covered the repair, minus the deductible. He had his work truck back in four days, paint uniform under the lights. For rural customers who assume they're too far out, we make the drive.
