Understanding Hail Damage to Roofs

When hail strikes, it often results in dents, cracks, and worn-out shingles that threaten your roof’s durability.

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

After a hailstorm, inspecting your roof is crucial to spot potential issues early.

  • Check for Dents and Cracks: Inspect roof surfaces for dents, cracks, and other evidence of hail strikes.
  • Inspect Gutters and Downspouts: Look for dents or blockages that might indicate roof damage.
  • 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: Inspect from the ground or use binoculars to minimize safety risks.

Filing Insurance Claims

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

  1. Document the Damage: Capture detailed images to provide your insurer with a comprehensive view of the damage.
  2. Contact Your Insurance Provider: Notify your insurer promptly and follow their guidelines for filing a claim.
  3. Work with a Roofing Contractor: Get a professional assessment to support your claim and plan repairs.

Partnering with professionals ensures your claim is thorough and accurate.
