One of the most common questions we hear is: "Should I repair my bumper or replace it?" The answer depends on several factors including the type and extent of damage, the bumper material, and your budget.
When Repair Makes Sense
Most bumper damage—scratches, scuffs, minor dents, and even some cracks—can be effectively repaired at a fraction of replacement cost. Modern repair techniques can restore structural integrity and appearance to near-original condition.
When Replacement Is Necessary
Severe structural damage, multiple broken mounting points, or extensive cracking may make replacement the more practical option. A professional assessment will determine the right approach.
The Cost Factor
Bumper repair typically costs 40-60% less than full replacement. When you factor in painting, parts, and labor, the savings from expert repair are significant—especially for fleet operators and dealerships managing multiple vehicles.
