Did Your Roof Take a Hit?

Hail storms in our region can range from pea-sized pellets to golf-ball impacts that crack windshields and dent siding. Here’s the hard part: most hail damage to a roof is invisible from the ground. Your shingles can look fine while every impact zone has fractured the asphalt mat underneath, blown granules off the surface, and started a clock on premature roof failure. Within a few seasons of freeze-thaw cycles, those impact bruises become leaks.

The other thing homeowners don’t always know: insurance carriers have time limits to file a hail damage claim — typically one year from the storm date. Miss that window and a fully covered claim becomes an out-of-pocket roof replacement. A free 30-minute inspection now can save you tens of thousands of dollars later. We’ve got you covered, step-by-step.

Signs of Hail Damage on Your Roof

Bruised Shingles

Hail impact creates soft spots on asphalt shingles — they feel like a bruise on a piece of fruit when pressed. These spots indicate the fiberglass mat has fractured, even when the surface still looks intact.

Granule Loss

Look for bare black or dark patches on shingles and granule accumulation in gutters and downspouts. Granules protect the asphalt from UV — once they’re gone, the shingle’s lifespan drops dramatically.

Cracked Shingles

Larger hail produces visible impact fractures and circular cracking patterns. These compromise the water seal immediately and qualify for full insurance replacement in nearly all cases.

Damaged Vents & Flashing

Aluminum and galvanized roof vents, ridge vents, and flashing show hail damage as visible dents and punctures. These are clear, undeniable evidence for your insurance adjuster.

Dented Gutters & Siding

If gutters, downspouts, gutter aprons, AC condenser fins, or vinyl siding show hail dents, your roof took the same impact. Visual evidence at ground level is one of the strongest claim indicators.

Damaged Skylights

Cracked skylight glass, broken plastic domes, and damaged skylight flashing all qualify for replacement under most homeowner policies — and we document each one as part of the claim.

Our Hail Damage Inspection Process

Full Roof Walkthrough — When Safe to Do So

Our trained inspector physically walks every accessible plane of your roof. We don’t inspect with binoculars from the driveway — hail damage is found by hand, slope by slope.

Photo + Video Documentation

Every damaged shingle, every dented vent, every fractured granule field gets photographed with location reference. This is the evidence adjusters approve claims on.

Chalk Marking of Damage Spots

We chalk-mark hail impact points directly on the roof so the adjuster can find them quickly during their visit. This small step massively reduces the chance of missed damage in the official scope.

Detailed Written Report Formatted for Insurance Submission

You receive a professional report with damage descriptions, photo references, slope-by-slope summaries, and recommended scope of work — formatted exactly the way carriers expect.

We Meet Your Adjuster On-Site

When your insurance adjuster comes out, we’re there with them. We walk the roof together, point out every documented impact, and advocate for a complete, accurate scope of work.

No-Pressure Consultation

If there’s no claimable damage, we’ll tell you straight — no upsell, no “let’s file anyway.” If there is damage, we walk you through your options with zero pressure to commit on the spot.

Why Time Matters With Hail Damage

Most homeowner policies require hail claims to be filed within one year of the storm date — some carriers are even shorter. Damage also worsens with every freeze-thaw cycle: bruised shingles crack, granule loss accelerates, and small leaks become attic mold. Once your filing window closes, a $15,000–$25,000 covered claim becomes an out-of-pocket replacement. See how we handle the entire insurance process →
