Hail and Wind Damage

In Middle Georgia we are likely to experience strong thunderstorms that often produce hail and strong winds. Hail can cause moderate to extremely severe damage to siding, windows, gutters and roofs.

Here are some tips about what to look for if you suspect hail damage to your home.

Misconceptions about Hail Damage

• I do not see any missing shingles on my roof and there is no leaking, so there must not be any damage.
• My roof is fairly new and it is covered by a warranty, so I do not need to call my insurance company about the damage.
• I can not see damage on my roof, so it is probably not warranted the effort to call a contractor or my insurance company.
• I am worried if I call my insurance company that my premiums may go up if I file a claim.

Does our home have
hail damage?

As noted above, hail damage is not always immediately obvious. If you have experienced hail in your area you should request an inspection from a professional roofer even after a mild storm. We offer FREE inspections and give detailed estimates. It is better to be safe then sorry. Your roof may look fine now, but if there is damage it can cause leaks and water damage weeks, months and even years from now!

Damaged caused by
hail storms.

Colored granules are the top layers of asphalt and composition shingles. The granules are used for decorative purposes and gives roofs different shades of colors, in addition to protecting the asphalt from the sun. Unprotected asphalt, after long periods of sun exposure, can soften, dry up and crack, allowing rain to penetrate underneath the shingles.

Your insurance company may cover more then just your roof repair, it is possible that your siding, windows, gutters and interior structures may be covered.
