How to Identify Hail Damage on Your Roof

You can identify hail damage by looking for missing granules, bald shingles, dents, intrusions, holes, or soft, spongy bruised areas on the shingle itself. If your asphalt shingle roof is older, impacts may also result in shingles cracking, breaking, or shearing off completely. Replace jeopardized materials as soon as possible and consider making roof restoration a part of your maintenance plan to prevent impact damage in the future.
