Hail Damage Detection
We just had a terrible hail storm this past weekend, and
were curious to know how I could detect hail damage to my roof. What do you suggest?
Looking for hail damage can be difficult if you don't
know where to look. We recommend looking
at a few places when identifying damage to your roof from hail. Inspect your gutters and downspouts for any
possible dimples caused by hail. We also
recommend looking for internal damage to your building caused from roof
leaks. This type of damage usually
doesn't happen overnight, but if you do spot a leak, this means it's probably
from damage you've experienced over a long period of time.
Lastly, inspect your roof. If you see dimples or damage to equipment
such as HVAC equipment, this could mean your roof took a beating from a hail
storm. If you do see these signs, don't
wait and let the problem persist. Have a
trained roofing professional thoroughly inspect your roof for possible
repair.
