Hail Damage on Your Roof

North Texas weather is always unpredictable, and hailstorms can cause serious damage to your commercial or residential roof! The impact of hail can either bruise or crack shingles, potentially leading to water damage. You can’t always avoid hail damage, but you can minimize the damage by getting it inspected quickly. 

WeatherShield can do a FREE roof inspection to see if you have any hail damage. Keep reading to learn more about what you can do to protect your roof from hail damage. 

How do I know if my roof has hail damage?

It is important to have your roof checked for damage after a hailstorm. Hail falls in random patterns and may damage your roof but not your neighbors. 

Here are a few things to look for while you schedule your FREE roof inspection with WeatherShield:

  • Plants stripped of their leaves
  • Dents in cars
  • Damaged air conditioner units
  • Evidence of damage to other exterior furnishings

Surface Hail Damage

If you have noticed hail damage around the outside of your home, you can check for surface hail damage on your roof. Once you find any signs of surface roof hail damage, contact us for a roof inspection. 

The following are signs of surface hail damage on a shingle roof: 

  • Small divots
  • Bruises
  • Loss of protective granules

Hidden Hail Damage

Even if you can’t see the damage, it might still be there! Sometimes the impact from a hailstorm can cause shingles to split, but that can only be seen when you look at the backside of the roof shingles.

Call WeatherShield Roofing and Sheetmetal to do this type of inspection. We will be able to assess other roofing components for damage such as flashing, roof vents, skylights, gutters and chimney caps.  

North Texas weather is always unpredictable! Contact WeatherShield Roofing & Sheetmetal today to have your roof inspected for storm damage at (817) 441-1446 We are your roofing experts!
