Hail damage to your roof is a common property damage situation and unfortunately, hail damage claims are typically denied or markedly underpaid by insurance companies. When your home or business suffers hail damage, it is your responsibility to prove and document your damages to the insurance company. Hail Damage claims and the required documentation is a long and tedious process.


Hail can damage your siding, shingles and or gutters without visible signs from the ground. Your Insurance company adjuster will often miss items and write an incomplete settlement offer or your claim could be denied all together due to the lack of supportive documentation. Don’t let your insurance adjuster’s inexperience or the time constraints he/she is under lead to a less than thorough inspection, or a poorly written or incomplete repair estimate.
