Unseen Expenses of Hail Damage
Hailstorms pose a major threat to your roof, especially in the Midwest, a hotspot for severe storms. Even seemingly insignificant hail damage can escalate long-term issues such as leaks and structural weaknesses. Taking preventive steps now can help you avoid costly repairs.
The Effects of Hail on Your Roof
Hail affects your roof in various ways, based on the material and storm severity:
- Asphalt Shingles: Granule loss leaving the layer beneath at risk of UV damage.
- Metal Roofing: Dents and weakened fasteners, affecting structural integrity.
- Wood Shingles: Cracking and splitting, leading to moisture infiltration.
Quick tip: Even tiny hailstones can cause serious damage if left unchecked.

- Install impact-resistant shingles built to withstand severe hail.
