How to best repair hail damage

[champcar50]

We live in Anderson Indiana and last night we had a pretty severe thunderstorm with quarter size hail. When I checked the Newell this evening it has lots of little dents on the top. What is the best way to repair these. I contacted the insurance company tonight and expect an adjuster in the next few days. Any advice? Thanks Jack

Jack,
Sorry to hear about the hail damage. I had a car get hail damage last year. I was told they could either "pop the dents out" or replace the roof. Cost was about the same. In my case they replaced the roof, but on a motorhome I'll bet they will try to "pop them out" and repaint. On a car the roof is easily visible. On a motorhome the roof is not visible----I would try to get them to "pop them out".

Good luck..........................

Growing up in South Dakota hail was an issue we all had to deal with just about every year. Dry Ice was used quite a bit and you would be amazed how well it worked. Hope it works out for you, Robert
