ABOUT US
DentCo Paintless Dent Removal, founded in 2014 by Anthony Costanzo, is a locally owned and operated company (not a franchise) based out of Newton, New Jersey. Anthony is a lifelong resident of Sussex and Morris Counties, father of four, and a career automotive professional. Starting his career as an auto and diesel mechanic in the late 90’s, Anthony went on to pursue Auto Body Collision and Refinishing training through Wyoming Technical Institute in 2002, where he also studied in Custom Body and Chassis Fabrication. After returning from the West, he started his professional career of 14 years in the collision repair industry, finishing his last 8 1/2 years with the same company. During this time, Anthony became intrigued with the capabilities of paintless dent removal and recognized a need for a reliable and professional dent removal company in the area.
In 2014, Anthony traveled to California to train with one of the best in the paintless dent removal industry. From there Anthony began mastering the art to which he combined his established knowledge of the collision industry. His understanding of all aspects of auto body repair combined with his experience working with insurance companies is what sets DentCo apart from other companies. In most cases the repair process isn’t black and white. Determining the proper repair based on the vehicle and customer needs is the number one priority.
DentCo was founded upon Anthony’s personal beliefs and experiences, to provide the most value and best experience for the customer as well as a top quality repair. All too often business phones go unanswered and calls not returned. Here at DentCo we know your time is valuable and while no company is infallible, We make professionalism a top priority.

OUR MISSION
To provide the best overall experience in dent removal, from start to finish. Period.
CONTINUED EDUCATION
Here at DentCo, we believe that continuing to educate oneself is vital to success in any field. Staying on top of the changes in your field is the only way to be a true expert within it.
Networking within the PDR and Collision industries, online training, as well as attending training seminars and tool expos are only some of ways we stay up to date in our industry.
We feel that these are mandatory in providing our customers with the expert level service and repairs that they deserve.
TOOLS
Tools are a necessity for all businesses. Just as you would want your mechanic to be up to date with their tools to diagnose and repair your car's engine or your dentist to use the most cutting edge technology when performing a root canal, PDR technicians also need to stay on top of tool changes in the industry. Even though PDR has been around for decades, the past 5 years or so have shown the most growth and advancement in tooling and technique to date. These minor and sometimes major changes could be the difference in repairing your vehicle or sending it to the bodyshop for a week. We are proud to be tied into the industry and it's innovators as we pride ourselves on maintaining a cutting edge status.
