Hail can affect your property in different ways, depending on the strength of the wind and the size of the hailstones. On a metal roof, the most typical damage are punctures, dents or chips to protective coating, which can create openings that expose the structure to future water damage.
If you have a shingled roof, hail is likely to cause cracks, tears and may dislodge individual shingles, degrading the roof’s ability to protect from various types of weather and extreme temperatures. The grains and granules covering a shingle’s surface play an important part in this protection, and they are the first to be damaged by hail.
Metal roofs typically only suffer cosmetic dings and dents from hail. Asphalt shingles, on the other hand, are susceptible to cracks, complete shingle breakage, or granule loss. Granule loss exposes the under layer of asphalt; shortening the lifespan of your shingles.
We document damage for insurance companies using a comprehensive, tech-driven approach to ensure claims are fully covered. Alongside a physical inspection we leverage drone footage and high quality cameras to capture storm damage. Then we create detailed reports to prove the need for repairs or full roof replacement.
Our thorough hail damage inspections cover every inch of your home’s exterior, from shingles to siding, so no damage goes unnoticed and your home stays fully protected.
It is important to schedule a roof inspection immediately after a major hail storm to identify any major or hidden damage caused to your roof. If left untreated hail damage can turn into costly structural issues, leaks, or mold.
Yes, your insurance may cover a roof replacement, depending on the extent of the damage. If the damage is less severe and a full replacement isn’t required, insurance may still cover the necessary repair costs.
In addition to physical damages like water problems, hail can also hurt your home or business property’s marketability and visual appeal — inside and out. You may notice different types of damage depending on siding material: Vinyl siding often cracks or breaks due to hail impacts, while wood siding may show signs of denting or chipping. Aluminum siding usually shows dents or punctures. Damaged siding can lead to interior issues such as water stains, peeling paint or mold.
Our experienced hail damage team has the training and equipment to provide a full, thorough inspection of your property, readily identify hail damage, recommend repairs and explore preventive maintenance and safeguards to help avoid hail damage in the future. We provide drone footage, videos, photographs and visual inspections — all valuable evidence during the claims process with your insurance company.
