Look for: dents on shingles (soft spots), bruising (dark areas), missing granules (shiny spots), cracked shingles, damaged flashing, dented gutters/vents. Use binoculars from ground - don't walk on damaged roof.
Document Damage Immediately
Take photos/video from multiple angles within 48 hours of storm. Photograph damaged shingles, gutters, vents, and yard items. Note storm date/time. This documentation supports your insurance claim.
Filing Your Insurance Claim
Call insurer within 48-72 hours. Request roof inspection. Get your own inspection from licensed contractor. Don't sign anything until you understand full coverage. Most policies cover hail damage minus deductible.
Working With Adjusters
Insurance adjusters often minimize damage. Have your contractor present during adjuster inspection to ensure all damage is identified. We document everything and advocate for full replacement coverage.
