Hail damage affects your home by cracking your roof, gutters, siding, and anything else it comes in contact with. Here are some signs to look for when checking for damage:
• Black spots all over the roof
• Distinct round spots the size of a penny or larger
• Residue from your shingles in your gutters or downspouts
• Broken or cracked shingles
• Crushed or dented areas
• Shingles that have fallen off the roof
Even if your roof does survive a hailstorm, there still may be significant damage underneath the roof. That’s why it is important to call an experienced roofing professional like The Exterior Company to check your roof for hail damage.
