Experience You Can Trust
With over 14 years of expertise in the Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) industry, Tim Kopriva leads his Dentsmart franchise with a commitment to excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction. As a franchise owner since 2011, Tim’s dedication to quality repair work and strong relationships has positioned his team as a trusted partner for body shops and insurance providers across Tennessee and Arkansas.
A Strong Foundation
Tim’s career began with a degree in autobody repair, followed by 10 years in a body shop and time in a tire factory shop. His transition into PDR was driven by a passion for precision and efficiency, culminating in a leadership role where he empowers his Dentsmart team and fosters excellence. Tim is proud to lead a team of 22 + technicians specializing in hail damage and door dings, supported by top-tier talent, who can handle severe damage with unmatched expertise.
Customer-Centric Philosophy
Tim’s approach to customer service is simple yet impactful: “I would never ask my guys to do something I wouldn’t do myself.” This hands-on philosophy ensures that every technician meets Dentsmart’s high standards, providing exceptional results for body shop partners and vehicle owners alike. Regular communication with partners, rigorous quality control, and advanced training programs reflect Tim’s dedication to continuous improvement.
Building for the Future
Motivated by a vision to create a legacy for his family, Tim is driven to grow his franchise and provide opportunities for his team including his sons, who work alongside him. This personal investment is mirrored in the relationships he builds with body shops, insurers, and local communities. From sponsoring sports teams to supporting local initiatives, Tim gives back with the same enthusiasm he brings to his business.
