GTA Hail Damage: What to Do After a Hailstorm

On the evening of September 2nd, 2026, severe storms moved through the GTA, bringing large hail to parts of Toronto and surrounding communities. Some of the strongest reports and vehicle damage have come from the Yorkdale–Downsview–North York areas, with severe weather also affecting or threatening Vaughan, Woodbridge, Etobicoke, and other parts of the GTA.

If your vehicle was outside during the storm, take a careful look. Hail can leave dents across the hood, roof, trunk, roof rails, fenders, doors, mouldings, and even damage glass. Some hail damage can also be difficult to see without proper lighting and a professional inspection.

At Auto Magicians, we specialize in paintless dent repair (PDR) for hail-damaged vehicles. When the factory paint remains intact, PDR can often restore hail dents without body filler or repainting, helping preserve the vehicle’s original factory finish.

Our team brings around 30 years of national PDR and hail damage repair experience, including major hail events throughout Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta, Manitoba, and other parts of Western Canada.

Auto Magicians is also a full-service auto body repair facility. If you’re making an insurance claim for hail damage, our team can assist you throughout the repair and claims process. Insurance coverage will depend on your individual policy.

If your vehicle was exposed to the September 2nd GTA hailstorm, particularly in the Yorkdale, Downsview or North York areas, don’t assume it’s damage-free based on a quick glance.

Contact Auto Magicians at 1905 Mattawa Avenue in Mississauga, near Highway 427 and Dundas, to schedule a professional hail damage inspection. With decades of PDR experience behind us, we’ll assess the damage, determine whether paintless dent repair is right for your vehicle, and help you through the repair process from start to finish.
