"Tried several repair centres and was only quoted for filling and resprays. Came across FVD and my car now has no dent! Dan gave a fair estimate and the matt paint was not an issue — he took the time to explain the whole process before starting."

Response from the owner · Forth Valley Dents

Thanks Stuart, glad the matt finish came out as well as it did. Appreciate you taking the time to leave this.

"Other PDR companies said it wasn't possible without a body shop. Dan effortlessly did the repair, leaving the car looking like new. Sent photos on the Tuesday, booked in on the Thursday, done by lunchtime. Cannot recommend enough."

"Service was outstanding from start to finish. Every dent removed to an incredibly high standard — you wouldn't know the dents had ever been there."

"Picked up a door ding in the Thistle Centre car park and was gutted — new car, three months old. Dan had it lifted out in a couple of hours and the paint is completely untouched. Saved me a fortune against the bodyshop quote."

Response from the owner · Forth Valley Dents

Cheers Graham — annoying dent but a good one to fix. Thanks for choosing us.

"Honestly can't find where the dent even was. Sharp crease along the body line of my A4 that two mobile guys refused to touch. Dan explained why they wouldn't and why he could — proper workshop, proper tools. Faultless job."

"Quick reply to my photos, honest advice over the phone, booked in the same week. My lease car went back without a single penalty charge. Wish I'd found Dan before paying for repairs through the dealer on my last car. Massive relief."

Sound Familiar?

Getting A Dent Fixed Shouldn't Be This Difficult

"The Bodyshop Wants My Car For Days"

You can't be without your car — work, school runs, life doesn't stop for a dent.

Most dents fixed in 2–4 hours, same day

"Bodyshop Quotes Are Ridiculous"

Hundreds of pounds for what looks like a small dent — their paint and labour overheads get passed to you.

No paint, no filler, no parts — nothing to mark up

"I See It Every Time I Walk To My Car"

That dent catches your eye every single day. You keep putting it off, but it's always there.

Send a photo now, booked in this week

"My Lease Is Going Back Soon"

Fair wear and tear won't cover it — you're looking at a hefty penalty charge when you hand it back.

Fixed for a fraction of the lease penalty

Keeps Your Factory Paint

No filler, no respray, no colour-match risk. Your car's original paint stays exactly as it left the factory — protecting resale value.

Fixes The "Unrepairable" Dents

Sharp creases, body-line dents, aluminium panels — the ones mobile techs turn away. Trained at the UK's top PDR centre.

A Proper Workshop

Temperature-controlled bay, hex LED lighting, glue-pull tooling. Precision that a driveway visit can't match.

What We Can Fix For You

If Your Paint's Intact, We Can Probably Lift It Out

We specialise in the dents other techs say can't be done. Send a photo and we'll tell you straight.

  • Door dings & car-park dents
  • Creases & sharp lines
  • Body-line dents
  • Glue-pull repairs
  • Aluminium panels
  • Lease-return damage

We can't help with rust, scratches or cracked/chipped paint — those need a bodyshop. We'll tell you honestly.

I'm Dan. I've spent 17+ years in vehicle body repair and trained at the UK's top paintless dent removal centre. I'm NVQ Level 5 qualified, and I built Forth Valley Dents because too many drivers were being told their only option was filler and a respray.

In most cases, that's wrong. If your paint is intact, I can lift the dent out — keeping your car's original factory finish, protecting its resale value, and saving you the bodyshop bill.

I take on the jobs mobile techs turn away — sharp creases, body-line dents, tricky aluminium panels. Every repair is backed for life.

Beat The Penalty

Our Repair Vs The Lease Charge

Leasing companies charge for every dent that fails their BVRLA inspection — typically far more than the actual repair costs. Fix it with us and pay a fraction of the penalty, quoted from your photos.

Damage typeWith usLeasing company
Small door dingFair fixed priceFull penalty charge
Crease / body-line dentFair fixed priceHigher penalty charge
Larger panel damageFair fixed priceBiggest penalty charge

Penalty amounts vary by leasing company and vehicle. Send photos through the form for a fair, fixed quote.

Inspection booked? Tell us the date.

We keep urgent slots for lease hand-backs — most repairs done same day, well before your inspection.

Your Questions, Answered

Frequently Asked

No — that's the whole point. Because your factory paint stays untouched (no filler, no respray), there's nothing for a BVRLA inspector to catch. The panel matches everything around it because it IS the same panel.
