Paintless dent repair is a small trade with steady demand across Australia, and hail makes it spike. After a big storm in Sydney, Canberra, Melbourne or Adelaide, thousands of cars need fixing and there are never enough trained technicians.
Where the work is
Hail repair follows the storms, so many technicians travel for the big events and do retail work in between. Cities with regular severe weather keep a steady supply of work for people who can quote and repair properly.
Work for someone or work for yourself
Employed or contract work. Hail repair companies add technicians when storms hit. Training and a good portfolio help you get the call.
Your own business. PDR needs far less equipment than a panel shop. The PDR eBook covers how to quote, how insurance and excesses work, and how to set up the business.
