Hail damage fails later. The claim starts now.
Hail rarely opens your roof on impact — it bruises shingles and dents siding in ways that fail months down the road. The work today is documentation: proving the damage is storm-caused now, so it's your insurer's problem later, not yours.
The damage is real today. The failure is months away.
Hail is the storm that doesn't announce itself. A stone strike bruises a shingle — cracking the mat and knocking off the granules that protect it from UV — without punching a visible hole. The roof looks fine, so nothing gets filed. Then months later those bruised spots dry out, crack open, and start leaking long after the storm is forgotten.
That delay is exactly why documentation matters more than repair on day one. An adjuster needs to tie the damage to the storm date, and that gets harder the longer you wait. We inspect the roof and siding, photograph and mark every impact, and build the record your claim depends on — so the future failure is covered instead of denied as wear.
What hail damage actually looks like.
Hail damage is subtle by design — it's rarely a hole. After a hailstorm, look for these before you assume the roof is fine.
Bruised or pockmarked shingles
Soft, dark spots where the granules are knocked off mean the shingle mat is cracked underneath — the classic hail bruise that fails later.
Granules in the gutters and downspouts
A pile of shingle grit washed into the gutters after a storm is a sign hail stripped the protective surface off the roof.
Dents in siding, gutters, and vents
Dings in soft metal — gutters, vents, flashing, aluminum siding — are the easiest-to-spot proof that hail hit hard enough to matter.
Dents you can only feel, not see
Some hail bruising is easier to feel by hand than to see from the ground, which is why a close inspection catches what a glance misses.
Inspect it, document it, file it, repair it.
Hail work is won or lost on the paper trail. We build the record first, then handle the repairs the same claim covers.
We inspect the whole envelope
Roof, siding, gutters, and soft metals — hail leaves a consistent pattern, and we check every slope and elevation, not just the side you noticed.
We document every impact
Photos, measurements, and marked test squares that tie the bruising and dents to the storm — the record your adjuster needs to approve a claim for damage that hasn't leaked yet.
We help you file it right
We speak your adjuster's language and present the full scope from the start, so the claim reflects all the hail damage — not just the one obvious dent.
We make the repairs
Once the claim is set, TRC manages replacement of bruised shingles, dented siding, and compromised components, plus drying wherever water got in.
Hail damage questions, honestly answered.
Yes, and this is the whole point of hail. It rarely leaves a visible hole; it bruises shingles that fail months later. Getting it documented now, while the damage can be tied to the storm date, is what makes it a covered claim instead of a denial for 'wear and tear' after it finally leaks.
Usually yes — hail is a covered peril on most homeowners policies. The challenge is proving the damage is storm-caused, which is exactly what our inspection and documentation are for. We photograph and mark every impact and present the full scope to your adjuster.
Most policies have a filing window after the storm, and the sooner the better — the connection between the damage and the storm date is easiest to establish while it's fresh. Waiting until the roof actually leaks can put you past the window and turn a covered claim into an out-of-pocket repair.
Yes. We photograph and measure everything from the first visit, speak your adjuster's language, and advocate for the full scope of repair the hail actually caused — not just the one dent that's easy to see.
The urgent part is documentation, not immediate repair — once the damage is on record and the claim is filed, the repair can be scheduled. But don't skip the record: an undocumented bruised roof becomes an uncovered leak the day it finally opens up.
