What Hail Actually Does

Hail doesn’t always crack shingles — more often it bruises them and knocks off the protective granules. That exposes the asphalt to the sun, which ages and fails the shingle years early. From the ground, the roof can look untouched.

Signs of Hail Damage

Why a Roof-Level Inspection Matters

The only reliable way to find hail damage is a trained inspector on the roof. We do this free, document what we find, and tell you honestly whether there’s a claim — hail damage is often covered by insurance when caught in time.

Don’t Wait

Carriers have filing deadlines, and unaddressed hail damage keeps aging your roof. See our storm damage page.

Frequently Asked Questions

Often no — hail bruises shingles and knocks off granules without obvious cracks. A roof-level inspection is the only reliable way to find it.

Granules in the gutters, dented gutters/flashing/vents, soft bruises on shingles, and dings on your car or mailbox from the same storm.

Most homeowner policies cover sudden hail damage, though it varies by policy. Catching and documenting it in time is key.

Carriers set deadlines that vary, so inspect and file promptly. We move quickly so documentation isn’t the hold-up.
