Hendersonville is a city in Sumner County on Old Hickory Lake, north of Nashville. For collision and body repair, Hendersonville drivers can use our dedicated collision shop in Berry Hill.
Many Hendersonville drivers commute into Nashville every day on Vietnam Veterans Boulevard and I-65, and weekends often mean pulling a boat trailer to the lake. Both show up in the damage we repair: rear-end impacts in rush-hour traffic, scraped rear bumpers from trailers and hitches, and the dings and scratches of busy parking lots.
Paint that matches
Lake-area sun is hard on paint, and a repaired panel needs to match a finish that has aged. Our paint and refinishing page explains how color matching and blending work.
Trailer, hitch and rear bumper damage
Jackknifing a trailer while backing down a ramp, or a tongue that swings into the bumper, leaves dents, scrapes and cracks right where they are hardest to see. A rear bumper cover that looks only scraped can have broken mounting clips or a damaged parking sensor behind it. Many plastic bumper covers can be repaired and refinished rather than replaced.

Dent removal for Hendersonville drivers
Keeping the original finish
Small, shallow dents with unbroken paint can often be worked back into shape from behind the panel without repainting.
Larger dents and creases
Deep dents, sharp creases and dents with chipped or cracked paint are reshaped, primed, refinished and blended.
See dent removal for details.
Hail and storm damage
Storms moving across Sumner County can bring hail and falling limbs. Hail dents collect on the roof, hood and trunk lid and are easiest to see when you look along the panel at a low angle; photograph them that way for your estimate request. Hail is usually covered under the comprehensive part of an auto policy. Our insurance claims guide explains the process.
Scratches and scuffs
Light scratches in the clear coat can often be polished out. Deeper scratches, the kind your fingernail catches in, are refinished in as small an area as possible and blended into the surrounding paint.
Before you request an estimate
- Photograph the whole vehicle and each damaged area
- Write down your insurer and claim number, if any
- Note anything that does not work right since the accident
Then send your request. Fixing damage while it is small also helps protect your vehicle’s trade-in and resale value.

Frequently asked questions
Can I send photos instead of coming in first?
Yes. Use the online estimate request to upload up to 8 photos and describe what happened. We will review them and contact you.
Will my repaired paint match?
Paint is matched to your vehicle's paint code and adjusted to its current color, and is often blended into the neighboring panels so the repair does not stand out.
Who pays if someone else hit me?
Usually the at-fault driver's insurer. You can also use your own collision coverage, subject to your deductible. Your insurer can explain the options under your policy.
I backed my trailer into my own bumper. Can that be repaired?
Usually. Rear bumper covers and the area around the hitch take a lot of this kind of damage. Send photos of the bumper and the area underneath it, and we will tell you whether it can be repaired or needs replacing.
