How can I tell if my roof has hail or wind damage?
Much storm damage is only visible to a trained inspector, which is why a professional inspection is the reliable test. Our inspectors look for missing, lifted, or creased shingles from wind, and impact marks, bruising, granule loss, and dents from hail. We also check flashing, vents, and gutters. Because hail and wind can shorten a roof's life even without an immediate leak, an inspection is the best way to gauge the true extent of the damage.
