How Can Hail Damage My Roof?

Hail forms during strong thunderstorms when raindrops are carried into freezing air and turn into solid ice ranging in size from tiny pellets to as large as grapefruits. When these hailstones hit your roof, they can knock off protective granules, crack shingles, dent metal panels, or even shatter tiles and slate. The severity of the damage often depends on the hail size, wind speed, and type of roofing material.

Most often, hail is also accompanied by high winds, which can worsen the situation by lifting or tearing shingles, adding wind damage to roof issues that may already exist. Beyond the roof, hail can also damage your home’s siding, gutters, and fascia, leaving your exterior vulnerable to moisture and long-term wear.

Signs of Hail Damage on Different Roof Types

Not all hail damage is easy to spot right away, especially when it affects the layers beneath the surface of your roof. That’s why knowing what to look for after a storm is important.

Signs of hail damage for different roof types include:

  • Asphalt shingles: One of the most common signs of hail damage is granule loss, which appears as dark or shiny spots where the protective coating has been knocked away. You may also notice cracked, bruised, or missing shingles. These weak areas can allow water to seep through, eventually affecting the roof deck and insulation beneath the surface.
  • Metal roofs: While metal is highly durable, hail can still leave dents and pockmarks. Even minor dents can damage the protective coating, leading to corrosion over time. In more severe cases, hail impact can compromise seams or fasteners, allowing moisture to reach the layers below.
  • Tile or slate roofs: Hail can crack, chip, or break individual tiles or slates. When this happens, the underlayment is left exposed, making it easier for water to penetrate the roof system. Left unaddressed, this can cause rot, mold, or structural damage beneath the roof’s surface.

Steps to Take After Hail Damage

Hail damage can reduce the overall lifespan of your roof, compromise structural integrity, or cause premature replacement—a significant and costly issue for any homeowner if not addressed quickly.

Here’s what you can do to protect your home and prevent further damage:

  • Look for damage: Check your roof, gutters, and attic for signs of impact or leaks.
  • Take photos: Document any visible damage for insurance purposes.
  • Call your insurance: Report the damage and start the claims process.
  • Get a roof inspection: Have a professional check for hidden issues and suggest repairs.
