How Hail Impacts Your Roof

Hail impacts can range from minor dents to severe damage, affecting both aesthetics and functionality.

The severity of damage depends on hail size, wind speed, and the age of your roofing materials.

Unchecked hail damage often results in water infiltration and expensive repairs.

How to Check for Hail Damage

Identifying hail damage promptly saves time and money on repairs.

  • Check for Dents and Cracks: Inspect roof surfaces for dents, cracks, and other evidence of hail strikes.
  • Inspect Gutters and Downspouts: Hail damage to gutters is a common sign that the roof may also be affected.
  • Look for Missing Granules: Bald spots on shingles indicate hail has stripped away protective layers.
  • Assess the Attic: Watermarks in the attic often indicate a compromised roof after a hailstorm.

Note: Always prioritize safety and avoid climbing onto the roof without proper equipment.

Filing Insurance Claims

A properly filed insurance claim can cover the cost of restoring your hail-damaged roof.

  1. Document the Damage: Clear documentation of the damage is essential for insurance purposes.
  2. Contact Your Insurance Provider: Prompt communication with your insurer ensures a smoother claim process.
  3. Work with a Roofing Contractor: Expert evaluations help streamline the insurance and repair process.

An experienced roofer simplifies the claims process with detailed documentation.
