Protect Your Roof: How to Prepare for Spring and Summer Hailstorms
Spring and summer bring more than just warmer weather they also bring hailstorms that can wreak havoc on your roof. At All Hail Roofing and Construction, we’ve seen firsthand how unprepared homeowners face costly repairs after a storm. The good news? There are steps you can take to minimize damage before the next hailstorm strikes.
1. Schedule a Pre Storm-Roof Inspection
Most homeowners don’t think about their roof until after a storm, but by then, the damage is already done. A professional inspection before storm season can identify weak spots, loose shingles, or aging materials that might not hold up against hail. Catching these issues early can save you thousands in repairs.
2. Upgrade to Impact Resistant Shingles
Not all shingles are created equal. Standard asphalt shingles can crack and break under heavy hail, but impact-resistant shingles are designed to withstand extreme conditions. Investing in these upgraded materials can add years to your roof’s lifespan and even lower your homeowner’s insurance rates.
3. Reinforce Your Gutters and Downspouts
Hailstorms don’t just damage roofs they can also clog and break gutters, leading to water pooling around your home’s foundation. Make sure your gutters are securely fastened and free of debris so they can handle heavy rainfall after a storm.
4. Trim Overhanging Branches
Trees near your home can become a serious hazard during a hailstorm. Strong winds and hail can break off weak branches, causing them to fall onto your roof, siding, or windows. Trimming trees before storm season reduces this risk.
5. Understand Your Insurance Coverage
Many homeowners don’t realize they have roof coverage until they need to file a claim. Review your policy now to understand what’s covered and what your deductible is. If you do suffer hail damage, working with a contractor experienced in insurance claims like All Hail Roofing and Construction can make the process much smoother.
