Hail damage can occur from hailstones and hailstorms, and cause substantial damage to homes, autos, and property. Roofs are typically the most common part of a home or business to sustain hail damage. Damaged roofing material can permit moisture to seep into the inner layers of the roof. This can cause additional damage to the roof deck, support structure, interior walls, and windows. Leaking can mean staining on walls and flooding inside the structure. Hail damage can result in issues with insurance policy coverage.
