The reason to move now is where the crew is
This one arrived before six in the morning. Most people in Olathe slept through it and found the car later, which is exactly the situation where damage goes unnoticed for months.
One report was filed from two miles southwest of town at 1.75 inches. Inside Olathe proper the readings that morning were smaller, at 1.00 and 1.25 inches, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What that means in practice is that whether your car was hit depends on which side of town you park on, and that is a question for a look at the vehicle.
Dents do not settle out on their own. The only thing that changes while you wait is how long you have been driving a dented car, and whether our crew is still close enough to look at it.
What that size of hail does to a car
1.75 inches is golf ball on the weather service size chart, and golf ball is already more than enough to dent a hood.
Hail lands hardest on the flat, horizontal panels: hood, roof, trunk lid. Most owners do not see the full extent in daylight. It shows up under a low, raking light, which is why the inspection happens in person and not over photos.
Paintless dent repair works the metal back from behind the panel. When a panel qualifies for it, the factory paint is never touched. How paintless dent repair works.

Where hail lands on a car
Hail falls close to vertical, so it collects on the flat panels and mostly misses the doors and the sides. Those three panels are where the damage count is decided.
You do three things. We do the rest.

We handle the insurance side with you
Hail repair on a vehicle is handled through your auto insurance claim. That part is the same everywhere. What changes is who does the work of it.
You open the claim, because only the policyholder can. After that we document the damage, send the estimate, deal with your adjuster and file the supplement when the first estimate misses damage. You hear from us at every step rather than chasing anyone.
How a hail insurance claim works, step by step
Questions about your specific claim or policy? Bring them to the inspection. Every policy is a little different, and that is a conversation about your car, not a paragraph on a website.
