Finding & Repairing Hail Damage on Your Roof

Hail damage can happen to any home, and when it does it’s important that you hire a Houston roofing contractor right away to inspect and repair the damage. Left unrepaired, hail damage could cause problems later, leading to roof leaks or damage that requires a full roof replacement instead of some simple repairs. Sometimes it can be difficult to know if the damage on your roof came from hail, so here are a few ways you can identify this type of damage.

Inspect Right Away

Any time you experience a hailstorm with large enough hail that could potentially damage your roof, the first thing you need to do is get the roof inspected. Unless you are a professional roofing contractor, you probably won’t know exactly what to look for, so it’s advisable to hire a roofer in Houston to do the inspection.

If you are worried that you might hire a contractor without reason (and it would be a waste of time and money), you can start by looking for the most common signs of hail damage, which are “bruises” on your shingles. These are small dark spots on the shingles, and if you look closely you might also notice that most or all of the granules around the spot are missing or the shingle is cracked or broken. You can often do this inspection from the ground with a pair of quality binoculars.

Another telltale sign of hail damage is dented metal—the metals around vents and exhaust caps often get damaged before shingles, so you can check these areas too.

Working With Insurance

Homeowners insurance covers hail damage, but working with insurance companies to get this type of repair covered can be tricky. You must be able to show that the damage was caused by hail and that it’s not older damage.

Hiring a professional Roofer In Houston can ensure that all the damage is properly documented and help you navigate the tricky world of insurance claims for roof repair.

Having quality roofing materials that are resistant to hail damage, and a strong underlayment foundation for these shingles can prevent future problems. If you live in an area with a lot of hail, consider getting new roofing as an alternative to constantly paying for repairs from hail damage.
