Spotting Hail Damage
When you see hail on the ground, hear it impacting the roof or ground, or receive a report of hail in the area of your commercial property, the wise choice is to make a call to Weather Restoration Group for a roof inspection for hail damage. It is never recommended to climb onto the roof to look for damage. The potential risk to your safety is immense, and unless you are a trained roofing professional, you could easily miss indications of damage that need immediate attention.
If you can view the roof from inside another structure or through windows in the facility, you can look for punctures, dents, cracks, missing tiles, or other harm to the roof’s surface. You can also look for seams, flashing, or other roof system components to let your Weather Restoration Group team member know of visible damage that poses an imminent threat to the integrity of the roof and your commercial property.
Other indications of more severe roof damage include pieces of roof tile or shingle on the ground near the building, sections of the roof that you can see from the ground which are missing shingles or tiles, or shingle granules on the ground near the roof’s drip line. All these are strong indications that you need to contact the roofing experts at Weather Restoration Group for a roof inspection and evaluation of the roof’s condition and a price estimate for any necessary repairs.
