Learn MoreFiling Your Claim
Call (214) 399-9385 first. We'll inspect your Waxahachie vehicle, document every hail dent, and prep the photo packet AmFam adjusters need to approve the file the first time.
We deliver a panel-by-panel paintless dent repair matrix with high-resolution photos — formatted exactly the way AmFam writes hail estimates in Ellis County.
American Family adjusters in Texas respond quickly to clean photo packets — we pair every estimate with a hail intensity map for the loss date to confirm storm cause. We file supplements for any hidden damage and keep you out of the back-and-forth entirely.
Your vehicle is restored with paintless dent repair that preserves factory paint. We bill AmFam directly — typical out-of-pocket: your $500–$1,000 comprehensive deductible and nothing more.
Waxahachie's classic-car and weekend-cruiser population values PDR's no-paint approach to preserving original finishes — and our hail work spikes every spring. For AmFam policyholders specifically, that means a documented PDR estimate, a clean supplement when hidden damage shows up, and direct billing to AmFam so you only ever cover your deductible.
AmFam payout style: Two-party check or shop direct deposit.
Local Context
Waxahachie is the Ellis County seat — famous for its 1895 Romanesque courthouse, the Scarborough Renaissance Festival and one of the most photogenic downtowns in Texas.
Waxahachie sat under the April 2023 Ellis County supercell that produced 2.75" hail across Buffalo Creek and North Grove. That kind of event drops a wave of AmFam comprehensive claims across Ellis County, and Max Exteriors PDR is the local shop handling them with PDR-first repair.
We work hail jobs across Historic Downtown, Buffalo Creek, North Grove, Mustang Creek, Garden Valley, Ellis County Fairgrounds area and the rest of Waxahachie — mobile when we can, shop pickup when the damage warrants.
We've tuned our PDR matrices and AmFam supplement templates to the vehicles that fill the historic Ellis County Courthouse Square parking lots and Historic Downtown driveways.

Direct billing
We bill AmFam directly — you only ever pay your deductible
No. Hail damage is filed under comprehensive coverage as an Act of God claim in Texas. AmFam does not surcharge Waxahachie policyholders for comprehensive claims.
Yes. PDR is the recognized standard for hail repair when the factory paint is intact. AmFam adjusters in Ellis County routinely write PDR estimates — and we provide the matrix and photos they expect.
In almost every case, only your deductible — typically $500–$1,000 comprehensive. The full hail repair cost on a Waxahachie-sized hailstorm almost always exceeds the deductible by several thousand dollars.
AmFam's typical approval window is 5–10 business days after we submit a complete photo packet. The PDR repair itself usually takes 2–5 working days depending on hail count and panel access.
Texas law guarantees your right to choose any licensed shop — AmFam cannot require you to use a network shop. We're chosen by Waxahachie drivers because we specialize in PDR rather than full-service collision, which is a better fit for hail damage where paint is intact.
Both. We run mobile PDR across Waxahachie (Historic Downtown, Buffalo Creek, North Grove) for smaller claims, and offer free pickup and drop-off for larger hail claims that need shop equipment.
Free inspection, full AmFam claim handling, direct billing, lifetime warranty. Call Max Exteriors PDR — the Waxahachie PDR shop AmFam policyholders trust.
*Out-of-pocket on most AmFam comprehensive hail claims is just your deductible.
