Understanding Hail Damage to Roofs

Hailstorms can leave behind significant damage, from cracks to weakened shingles, compromising your roof’s integrity.

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.

DIY Inspection Tips

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: 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: Check for water stains or moisture that might suggest roof leaks.

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

Navigating Roof Insurance After Hail Damage

If your roof shows signs of hail damage, filing an insurance claim can ease repair costs.

  1. Document the Damage: Take photos and videos of all visible roof damage for evidence.
  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.

An experienced roofer simplifies the claims process with detailed documentation.
