We don’t expect you to be up on your roof constantly checking it for wear and tear, let alone if it has any storm damage. So if you weren’t home during a storm, you may be completely oblivious to the hundreds of hail dents on your shingles that displaced granules, making your roof more susceptible to water damage. Here are some ways to tell if you have hail damage:

1. All your neighbors are getting new roofs. This isn’t just FOMO, if people on your street are getting their roofs replaced, it’s highly likely hail hit your neighborhood.
2. Structures on ground level are dented. Take a look at your AC unit, or siding. Multiple small dents (not two or three large ones from baseballs) may indicate a storm passed through.
3. A lot of people are knocking on your door. Like, a LOT. Contractors monitor where hail hits and canvassers cover these areas offering free inspections. Before you let a stranger climb up on your roof, make sure they’re a legitimate, local company, and look at their website and online reviews. Once you have a contract and there’s a sign in your yard, the only knocking will be from Girl Scouts.
