If a storm has come through, you can check for hail damage. Remember though, you can’t always see it so we advise you to contact someone as soon as possible to do a professional roofing inspection and damage assessment.
Remember also that anyone an insurance company or other entity sends out is not necessarily representing you.
Be sure you have your own contractor professional on your side to negotiate claims, give you estimates, or be there to answer and ask questions on your behalf. Here is how to check your roofing materials:
- Damaged Metal-The best and most easiest way to search for this type of damage is to check your roof vents. If they are damaged, then more than likely your roof is as well. This will also help indicate the size of the hail.
- Ridge Cap- Check the ridge cap for damages. All you need to do is set your ladder to the top of your roof and climb until you reach the lip. You can safely survey from there as to how bad the damages really are.
- Identify the Damages- You’ll want to inventory all of the items that we re damaged by the hail itself. This will help when the contractor comes out. Hail damage repairs can be done by Disaster Response Group.
