Effects of Hail on Roofs

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

Factors like hail size and roof condition determine how much damage is inflicted.

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

DIY Inspection Tips

A thorough post-storm inspection can reveal hail damage before it worsens.

  • Check for Dents and Cracks: Inspect roof surfaces for dents, cracks, and other evidence of hail strikes.
  • Inspect Gutters and Downspouts: Damaged or clogged gutters often signal underlying hail damage.
  • 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: Always prioritize safety and avoid climbing onto the roof without proper equipment.

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: 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: A trusted contractor can provide the detailed report needed for your claim.

Collaborating with experts makes navigating insurance claims less stressful.
