Hail Damage Roof Repair
Hail storms can wreak havoc on your roof, causing damage that might not always be immediately visible. If left unchecked, this damage can lead to costly repairs, leaks, and structural issues. At Perimeter Roofing, we specialize in identifying and repairing hail-damaged & wind-damaged roofs, helping homeowners in Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama navigate insurance claims to restore their roofs and protect their homes.
How to Tell if Your Roof Has Hail Damage
After a storm, a few signs are visible from the ground or from inside your home. If you notice any of these, it is worth having the roof looked at.
- Bruises or soft spots on the shingles.
- Cracks or dents in the shingles or metal flashing.
- Water stains or leaks in the attic or on your ceilings.
- Dents in nearby surfaces like siding, gutters, or window screens, which are a clue the roof took a hit, too.
Don’t assume things are fine. If a storm rolled through and you saw or suspected hail, a free inspection is the safest move. Some of the most serious damage can only be seen when you’re on the roof.
What Hail Actually Does to a Roof
Hail damage works on two timelines. Some of it you feel right away in a leak. Most of it works slowly, shortening the lifespan of the roof from the inside out. Here is what the impacts do.
Strips the protective granules
Asphalt shingles are coated in granules that shield them from the sun. Hail knocks those granules loose, exposing the asphalt underneath to UV rays. The shingle ages faster from that point on.
Cracks and fractures shingles
A hard enough hit cracks the shingle outright, which opens a path for water to reach the layers below and eventually the inside of your home.
Weakens the seal between shingles
Shingles are held down by an adhesive strip. Hail can break that seal, which leaves the shingle loose and far more likely to lift or tear in the next windstorm.
Hides damage you cannot see from the ground or zoomed in with your phone
Plenty of hail damage looks like nothing from the driveway and has already compromised the roof’s structure. Left alone, it turns into leaks, rot, and a much larger repair bill down the road.
