Roof Leak and Hail Damage

Interior water damage from roof leaks and hail, dried and repaired, with temporary protection in place until the roof is fixed.

Hail dents roofs and cracks shingles. Wind lifts flashing. Over weeks, water finds its way in and shows up as a stain on a ceiling, a damp attic or a musty smell. By the time the stain appears, the insulation above may be soaked.

We find the water path, dry the attic and ceilings, remove wet insulation and protect the roof with a temporary tarp if needed. A roofer makes the permanent repair, and we coordinate our work around it so the repairs are done in the right order.

Follow the water

Roof leaks rarely drip where the hole is. Water runs along rafters before it shows up. We trace it with moisture readings and thermal imaging.

Temporary protection

A tarp keeps rain out until the roof is repaired. It is temporary, but it prevents a second, larger loss.

Attic and insulation

Wet insulation holds water against drywall and wood. It usually has to come out for the area to dry and to prevent mold.

Inspect after hail

A roofer can look for bruised shingles, cracked flashing and gutter dents after a hailstorm. Finding damage early protects the roof and your claim.

Questions

Roof Leak and Hail Damage FAQ

Does hail always cause leaks?

Not always right away. Hail can bruise shingles and shorten roof life, and leaks may show up later. A roof inspection after a hailstorm is worthwhile.

How do I know the roof is leaking?

Look for stains on ceilings, damp insulation, musty smells and peeling paint. We can also measure moisture.

Can you repair the roof too?

We handle the interior and the temporary protection, and we coordinate with a roofer for the permanent repair.

Will insurance cover hail damage?

Coverage depends on your policy. We document the damage so you can discuss it with your insurance company.

How soon after hail should I inspect?

As soon as safely possible. Deadlines for claims can apply.
