DentFree

First off I would like to say that Roger (Dent removal guy) is a honest man and stands behind his work. You can tell he takes a lot of pride in to what he does and he definitely knows what he’s talking about. Take a look at the pictures of his work and they speak for themselves A++++ service and a very nice guy. PS he likes flamingos on his lawn! Thank you Roger for your services.

Roger took care of 5+ dents on my car hood. He spent ½ day on them and the outcome was excellent. He was on time and professional through the entire process from estimate to completion of work. He is pricier than other dent repair guys, but like I said, he does excellent work. If I ever have more dents I will certainly call him.

I love watching people who are masters of their craft, whether they are surgeons, pianists, or carpenters. Roger is one such master. He is a perfectionist (almost to the point of being ocd) and has been in this business for almost 20 years. He fixed the debts on my nissan leaf, even fixed my disconnected bumper at no extra cost.
Throughout our time together he was pleasant, chatty, and happy to explain what he was doing and why. I would go back to him in a second with any further dents, but thankfully have no repeat business for him yet!

Great work! Looks as if nothing happened. I had a dent on the trunk of my car and the dent caused the paint to crack. Roger did an excellent job fixing the dent and even used my touch up paint to complete the job. You would not believe there was a good size dent/​cracked paint on my trunk. This is my second experience with Roger. I highly recommend him. He is a perfectionist, a people person and will makes sure the job is done right. His work is worth every penny!

My wife dented the rear bumper in the morning, but by 2pm that afternoon it was dent-​free. I got lucky: I found Roger on Unilocal,called him, and after emailing pictures of the damage, he was at my Oakland home in less than an hour. Reasonable price; much less expensive than going to a body shop. Highly recommend Roger for his skill; plus he is a self-​employed business owner.

Tried other dent removal places, they recommended going to a body shop because of the dent size and location. Rodger was willing and able to restore it to 90% of perfect. This was better than I expected. Would use him again.

Excellent service and results! Emailed Roger pics of my dent and he quickly responded and set up appointment with me that day.
Roger exceeded my expectations on removing my dent, he meticulously worked with great attention to detail. I was shocked, I even thought I might need touch up paint but after he worked his magic the car was as good as new.
Not only was he fast and very skilled but he was also a very pleasant and kind. Very rare to find someone who truly loves what they do and takes pride in their work. I would highly recommend you use his services.

I was freaking out!!! I had this horrific dent on my driver side fender. I mean it was ugly!!! I called Roger emailed my pics and he got right back to me explaining his process and the results that I should receive. His professionalism and straightforward demeanor gave me hope. I called him at 10AM, made an appointment for 1pm, car was repaired at 1:20pm. AMAZING!!! I was so happy with his work. No one could ever tell that terrible blemish was there. In addition, he provided me with some other cosmetic services included with his original quote. I am a happy camper!!! Roger is efficient, his methods are effective and his rates are extremely fair.
Thanks Roger, nice meeting you but hopefully I won’t ever have to see you again!!! (At least under these types of circumstances).

Roger is a man who understands car people. We know every single dent that is on our precious rides, and he works on them with the same attention to detail as his own two rides (which are pretty damn sweet if you have the chance to see them in his garage)
A true professional and an example of «you get what you pay for» He is a bit on the pricey side, but once you see his work, you will know why he can command his premium.
True 5 star professional, and a real lover of cars!

This guy is AMAZING!!!’ Does fantastic work! If you want the best dent repair guy in the entire Bay Area, this is your go to guy. Honest, open, upfront, friendly and most important a perfectionist! I can’t say enough good things about Roger. You will not be disappointed! You will save lots of time, headaches stress and money if you give him a try. There are a lot of guys out there on Craigslist, but trust me… this guy knows what he is doing! I am very picky with my car and after he was done you couldn’t even notice any damage had ever been done. He’s that good!!! Guaranteed you will be a happy customer! If he tells you he can do the job, he will follow through on his work. Very professional from beginning to end.

We have called on Roger for years to remove door panel and hood dents from our cars and he always delivers impeccable results. We give our highest recommendation for him.

Called the number listed trying to get an estimate on dent repair. All I can say is that this guy could really use some 101 basic customer service skills. I got nothing but a condescending response from this smart aleck. Word of advise for those of you out there, go to someone else who appreciates your business and knows the value of customer service, after all it’s your hard earned money.

Look no further. If you want quality work, Roger at DentFree will deliver excellent results.
We found DentFree on Unilocal.Roger provided a quote the same day and the next day he was at our home on time. Very polite and professional.
Money well spent.

Not only am I dent free I am 100% satisfied! I almost made the mistake of going somewhere else, Roger is the best in the game! Professional, kind and funny are just a few of the characteristics to top off the amazing work he does. Roger took his time to explain in great detail what he was going to do and didn’t over charge me, in fact I had a small dent right next to the one I asked him to do and when I came back for my car that too was gone! Roger thank you for being honest and great at what you do! I highly recommend you use his services, I know I found my guy and will continue to pass his name along!

He knows how to do his job, but he is unbelievably rude. When I called, he said that he takes cash or checks, but when I showed up and presented a check, he insisted that we drive to a nearby ATM… giving me a BS story about needing cash for a transaction later that afternoon. Obviously, I was pretty insulted but went along with it.
In spite of this, I called a second time for a new ding. This time, he was pretty short with me by both e-​mail and over the phone. I’d contacted him on a Sunday asking for an appointment next Friday (which to me means two weeks out). He requested that I call him «this Friday» to confirm the appointment. I thought it was a little weird, so I clarified the date, and he still insisted that I call «this Friday.» So when I called the week before my appointment, he practically called me an idiot. He was so condescending and rude, I thought he wanted to cancel.
At this point, I started looking for someone else. Roger does good work, but I wasn’t willing to pay someone $ 200-​$ 250 a dent to someone who treats his clients like crap. I found someone closer to my home, and gave Roger a week’s notice of my cancellation. The new guy was late which gave me a bad impression, so I stupidly called to Roger and tried to reschedule. He was nasty as always, and told me he was booked indefinitely. Ummm… okay.
The new guy finally showed up, did a great job, was extremely friendly, and eager to please. He even took a check without a second thought.
That said, given my experience I’d say save yourself the drama and go somewhere else.

Took my 5 Series BMW to Roger last weekend when I had grown tired of seeing this dent on the flat edge of the wheel well. It was a big round dent, with an elongated dent coming off the big dent, a result of cutting it to closely when backing into a parking spot when extremely tired. Luckily there was no damage to the SUV’s bumper, but the self-​inflicted dent to my precious Bimmer made me want to scream! So when I grew fed up with looking at that dent, I went to the best paintless dent repair company reviewed on Unilocal… and that business is DentFree in San Leandro. No disappointment here! In about one hour, Roger worked his magic and made this dent disappear! I was amazed, impressed, and will call on him again, the next time my auto is dented.
He is one of the most thorough businessmen I have interacted with, but it seems to be a part of his perfectionist personality. Never rude, Roger was matter of fact and business-​like on the phone, and extremely friendly and personable in-​person.
I’ve gone to other dent repair houses, and no one has done the kind of work to my vehicle that Roger did. If your car is dented, don’t try to fix it yourself and certainly don’t let your sister try to fix it (Yes I read that review)…Just call Roger at DentFree and have him give you his honest appraisal of what needs to be done, and if he says he can take the dent out then have him do it! After my initial conversations with him, and then seeing the craftsmanlike work he did on my car, I’m confident that if he says he can do it, he’ll do it perfectly for you!
Give him a call… he’s good!

Magic I tell you… pure magic! I knew from the second I saw his garage (meticulous) that I found a gem. Roger had me in & out in about 30 minutes & the work was flawless. My wife is on the east coast & will never know about the damage to the roof of her «baby»…priceless!
If you want exceptional quality of work with a smile during the whole process… then DentFree is for you. Thanks again Roger for accommodating my tight time line yesterday.

I found DentFree on Unilocal and was immediately impressed with the quantity and quality of the reviews they receive. I e-​mailed for more information, and Roger responded quickly, requesting that I call to go over some of the details. After speaking with him, I scheduled an appointment with him for the following day. I met him at his residence and was in awe over how clean and neat his two cars and garage/​shop was. I can honestly say I have never seen anything like it.
Roger quickly took care of the very minor ding I had, and explained everything to me as he worked. After 5 – 10 minutes, my car door looked like new. He then proceeded to take care of some other unsightly paint issues that another body shop had caused. Roger spent quite a bit of time with me, showing me the best ways to care for my cars. Although he is not the cheapest DPR person out there, he makes up for it in craftsmanship and knowledge. He also didn’t charge me extra beyond the original quote for all of the other work he did.
I will be scheduling with him to take care of some other paint issues I have in the near future.
Thanks, Roger!

Called this person and was rude from the start. I just kept being polite. Told me to email him some pics. I did. Get an email from him asking, who tried fixing it. So he emailed back and tells me I need to go to a body shop. Ok, that’s fine but then I asked if he could pop out what he could bc to me it looks like some could be popped out. (I have no experience in cars whatsoever, I assumed)
His response was «Pop out? As you can see from the damage your sister did to it, the dent does not „POP“ out.
$ 500»
Charge me $ 500, GTFO. So this person did not give me a quote and did not want my business but wants my business only if I paid him $ 500. really? hmmm red flag.
I’m not a mechanic or professional, how could I know if it can be fixed or not, that’s why I needed a professional help, I was willing to do business with this person but completely glad I did not. The email response was uncalled for and unprofessional.
No kind of customer service at all. I’m guessing he’s only nice to those who will give him profitable business. Because he sure didn’t want to help me.

I wasn’t sure what I could write that had not already been written about how impressed we were with Roger and how much care he puts into his craft.
Time solved it for me…
My husband had opened the door to his truck onto the corner of a stucco wall and made a ding that would remind him of that mistake every single time he went to reach for the door handle of the drivers side door.
Roger and Dent Free were hired due to past reviews I read here on Unilocal and also due to his responses to those reviews… For him it’s all about the quality of his work! That is his only focus… How well he does his job!
Last Sunday, we had him repair the truck and are extremely pleased with the results! Then on Wednesday I am sitting in my parked vehicle in a parking lot on my phone when WHAM! (& rocking movement)… The woman in the car next to me opens her driver door onto my car hard enough for it to sound like a moving vehicle accident and crunch… I got off of my phone call quickly and went to investigate the damage.
A very similar ding, size and location (except for now passenger side vs. driver side) was on my door.
Not again… Well the first thing out of my mouth to the woman was «I just had one of these taken care of on Sunday for my husbands truck.» Then I reached into my purse, took out Dent Free card and informed her that Roger will be doing the work and how much I expected it would likely cost based on what the truck had cost.
She looked surprised and I let her know that we had just been through this and showed her the «before» photos from my husbands truck taken just a few days before.
So basically, in wrapping this story up… My review is that I will be using Roger again extremely soon… Roger, expect my phone call sometime this week.
