Hail Damage

What Hail Does to a Roof

Hail can bruise shingles, knock off protective granules, crack tiles, dent soft metals, and open pathways for leaks around flashings and vents. Even if you don’t see missing shingles, hidden impacts can shorten a roof’s life.

Watch for:

• Granules piling in gutters/downspouts
• Dark “bruises” or shiny spots on shingles
• Dents in gutters, downspouts, vents, or flashing
• Water stains on ceilings or around skylights/chimneys
