Effects of Hail on Roofs

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.

DIY Inspection Tips

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

Filing Insurance Claims

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

  1. Document the Damage: Capture detailed images to provide your insurer with a comprehensive view of the damage.
  2. Contact Your Insurance Provider: Prompt communication with your insurer ensures a smoother claim process.
  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.
