How Erie Hail Claims Work in Forney
Call Us Before You Open the Erie Claim
Call (214) 399-9385 first. We'll inspect your Forney vehicle, document every hail dent, and prep the photo packet Erie adjusters need to approve the file the first time.
Free, Erie-Ready PDR Estimate
We deliver a panel-by-panel paintless dent repair matrix with high-resolution photos — formatted exactly the way Erie writes hail estimates in Kaufman County.
We Handle Erie Directly
Erie writes carefully — we provide a panel-by-panel hail count and a PDR matrix so the assigned adjuster can approve the file without a second inspection. We file supplements for any hidden damage and keep you out of the back-and-forth entirely.
PDR Repair + Direct Billing
Your vehicle is restored with paintless dent repair that preserves factory paint. We bill Erie directly — typical out-of-pocket: your $500–$1,000 comprehensive deductible and nothing more.
What Erie Comprehensive Covers in Forney
Forney's exploding population of new-construction homes and recently delivered vehicles makes PDR essential for keeping new paint pristine after every storm. For Erie policyholders specifically, that means a documented PDR estimate, a clean supplement when hidden damage shows up, and direct billing to Erie so you only ever cover your deductible.
Erie payout style: Two-party check to insured + shop; supplements processed inside the original claim.

Local Context
Hail in Forney, TX — and Why Erie Sees So Many Claims Here
Forney is Kaufman County's 'Antique Capital of Texas' — and one of the fastest-growing exurbs in the Metroplex along US-80 east of Mesquite.
Devonshire and Travis Ranch took widespread roof and vehicle hail damage during the May 2024 Kaufman County storms. That kind of event drops a wave of Erie comprehensive claims across Kaufman County, and Max Exteriors PDR is the local shop handling them with PDR-first repair.
We work hail jobs across Devonshire, Gateway Parks, Travis Ranch, Diamond Creek, Fox Hollow, Windmill Farms and the rest of Forney — mobile when we can, shop pickup when the damage warrants.

Erie Hail Claim FAQs — Forney, TX
Will Erie Insurance raise my rates after a Forney hail claim?
No. Hail damage is filed under comprehensive coverage as an Act of God claim in Texas. Erie does not surcharge Forney policyholders for comprehensive claims.
Does Erie approve paintless dent repair?
Yes. PDR is the recognized standard for hail repair when the factory paint is intact. Erie adjusters in Kaufman County routinely write PDR estimates — and we provide the matrix and photos they expect.
How much will I pay out-of-pocket on a Erie hail claim in Forney?
In almost every case, only your deductible — typically $500–$1,000 comprehensive. The full hail repair cost on a Forney-sized hailstorm almost always exceeds the deductible by several thousand dollars.
How long does a Erie hail claim take in Forney?
Erie'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.
Should I use a Erie network shop in Forney or Max Exteriors PDR?
Texas law guarantees your right to choose any licensed shop — Erie cannot require you to use a network shop. We're chosen by Forney drivers because we specialize in PDR rather than full-service collision, which is a better fit for hail damage where paint is intact.
Do you come to Forney, or do I bring the vehicle to Dallas?
Both. We run mobile PDR across Forney (Devonshire, Gateway Parks, Travis Ranch) for smaller claims, and offer free pickup and drop-off for larger hail claims that need shop equipment.
