Assess Wind and Hail Concerns Without Guessing from the Ground

Roof Storm Damage FAQs
Can I tell hail damage from the ground?
Not reliably in every case. Some damage requires safe close access and context.
Does storm damage mean replacement?
No. Extent, location, repairability, roof condition, and policy decisions all matter.
Can you guarantee claim approval?
No. A contractor can document conditions and scope; the insurer determines coverage under the policy.
