Signs of Hail Damage and How to Handle ItnnHail damage can severely affect your roof. It can cause dents, or cracks in shingles, turning into a complete loss over time. Hail can also cause granule loss to the shingles, which can eventually cause leaks in a home. How does one exactly spot hail damage? One can spot hail damage by: n• Looking at gutters and downspouts. If a homeowner's gutters and downspouts have dents, this is an obvious sign that hail damage is likely on the roof.n• Damage to siding and windowsills is also a sign that there could be hail damage on the roof. n• Damage to air conditioners outside the home could also be a possible sign of hail damage. n• Soft metal damage on the roof is also an excellent sign that the shingles have been compromised by hail. If soft metals on the roof have dents in them, it is almost certainly the cause of hail. n• Granule loss on a shingle noticeable by looking at it means that hail damage has hit the homeowner's roof.nnIt is easy to look at certain things like siding and air conditioners on the ground to spot hail; however, not many people want to get up on a roof or are confident that they would even spot the hail damage themselves.
