These Terms & Conditions (“Terms”) govern all services provided by Accretion PDR LLC (“Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) to our customers (“Customer”, “you”, or “your”). By scheduling an appointment, leaving your vehicle with us, or approving a repair, you agree to these Terms.
1. Services

1.2 PDR is a process that removes dents and dings without repainting, when the paint surface is not cracked, chipped, or otherwise damaged.
1.3 We reserve the right to refuse or stop work on any vehicle if we determine that PDR is not appropriate or safe.
2. Estimates & Pricing
2.1 Any estimate we provide (in person, by photo, or online) is a good‑faith estimate only and may change after we inspect the vehicle in person.
2.2 Final pricing is based on factors including dent size, depth, location, number of dents, metal type, access, and paint condition.
2.3 If we discover additional damage or complexity, we will notify you and request approval before continuing.
2.4 All prices are in U.S. dollars unless stated otherwise and are subject to applicable taxes and fees.
