It’s difficult to determine whether a shingled roof needs to be replaced after a hail storm because the damage is not readily evident. Our hail damage specialists are specially trained and experienced to determine the damage and make corrective action We check the entire roof structure and gutter system. If we see a large amount of granules re-roofing would be a consideration. Granules aren’t just for appearance purposes, they’re there to protect the asphalt based roof product (the shingle). It doesn’t take much of a hail storm to dislodge a bunch of granules, thereby exposing the asphalt and shortening the service life of your roof.
If your roof went through a hail storm but no damage was readily visible but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there. If enough granules were knocked loose, the sun will hit the exposed asphalt further damaging the roof and underlayment. The exposed asphalt will deteriorate and more granules will come loose. In a few months and after a few rains, the damage will be readily evident. Many times hail storms produce visible damage, but beware, only a trained roofing hail damage specialist can uncover the real damage!
