Repairing Dents Before a Lease Return: What East Yorkshire Drivers Need to Know
If you’re coming up to the end of a lease agreement, it’s worth getting any dents and dings looked at before the inspection rather than after. Leasing companies typically charge for panel damage found at handover, and those charges are rarely cheap.
A paintless dent repair beforehand is usually quicker and less costly than leaving it to the lease company’s assessment — and because PDR doesn’t involve filler or repainting, it won’t introduce any repaint history to flag during the inspection either.

Common Questions
Answers to the questions we hear most often about this topic.
Q: Should I repair small dents before my lease return inspection?
It’s worth getting dents assessed before a lease return, since lease companies typically charge for panel damage at end of contract. A PDR repair beforehand is usually quicker and less costly than leaving it to the inspection.
Q: Is it worth repairing dents before selling my car?
Yes, generally. Removing dents and dings before a sale or valuation tends to support a higher resale price, and because PDR keeps the factory paint intact, it doesn’t introduce the kind of repaint history that can put buyers off.
Q: Can you provide an invoice for insurance or warranty purposes?
Yes — every repair comes with a full written quote and invoice from the MTRX estimating system, which can be used for your own records, insurance, or warranty purposes if needed.
