How Hail Impacts Your Roof

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

Older roofs and extreme storm conditions can exacerbate the extent of damage.

Ignoring hail damage can lead to costly leaks and structural issues over time.

Inspecting Your Roof After a Hailstorm

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

  • Check for Dents and Cracks: Examine shingles, metal flashing, and vents for visible signs of hail impact.
  • Inspect Gutters and Downspouts: Damaged or clogged gutters often signal underlying hail damage.
  • Look for Missing Granules: Granule loss on shingles can compromise your roof’s ability to repel water.
  • Assess the Attic: Check for water stains or moisture that might suggest roof leaks.

Note: When in doubt, leave roof inspections to qualified professionals.

Filing Insurance Claims

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

  1. Document the Damage: Take photos and videos of all visible roof damage for evidence.
  2. Contact Your Insurance Provider: Reach out to your insurance company as soon as possible after identifying damage.
  3. Work with a Roofing Contractor: A trusted contractor can provide the detailed report needed for your claim.

An experienced roofer simplifies the claims process with detailed documentation.
