As of Tuesday, December 2, 2025, On the “Mark” Paintless Dent Repair, Inc. will be closing after 22 years in business so that I can begin enjoying retirement.
My paintless dent repair career began 34 years ago, and for 22 of those years I’ve had the privilege of owning and operating On the “Mark" PDR. After decades of hard work and thoughtful planning for the future, the time has come to step back and enjoy the next chapter of life.
Starting a small business was a big move, and through the years there were some stressful moments—but far more rewarding ones. I am thankful every day for my customers, friends, and family who supported me over the years. I’ve repaired a lot of dents, made many friendships along the way, and I’ll miss the people who made going to work enjoyable.
With sincere appreciation, Mark
