How do you know if your roof has been damaged by severe weather such as wind or hail? Until there is a leak, most property owners do not realize that their roof has been damaged by a storm. If your roof is over ten years old, the chances are very likely that it has undergone some weather related damages. Below are a few tips from MESSTX.com to help you determine if your roof has undergone some damages due to severe weather: • Regularly examine the roof so that you can recognize when the condition has changed following a severe storm. This will enable you to prove and accurately document the damage when it happens and will also prevent a more costly leak. • Take photographs of the condition of the roof in its normal wear state and after damage has occurred. This will prevent any debate concerning whether or not the roof was damaged due to severe weather. If an insurance claim is warranted, the photos will provide proof in support of your claim. • Identify the damage. The three major signs of hail damage include bruising, cracking, and granules missing from the asphalt. If the rain gutters were clean before the storm and are filled with mineral granules afterward, there is strong evidence of roof wear and damage due to the hail. Wind alone can also damage a roof. If you think your roof or other areas of your property have been damaged due to severe weather, contact Morgan Elite Specialist Services to hire professional, reliable and trustworthy professional Public Adjusters for your claim settlement! Our certified and professional Public Adjusters will determine if damage has occurred and is covered under your insurance policy.

I think my roof has been damaged by hail when the severe weather came in last week. I've examined the condition of the roof, but I'm not sure what to look for. Thanks for mentioning that signs of damage are bruising and cracking, so I'll hire a roofing company to check if it's still okay. 7/23/2019 04:57:35 am

It's good to know that you should take pictures of your roof's condition before and after it was damaged so that there won't be any debates about your roof being damaged. My wife and I live in an area that experiences frequent hail storms, and we want to make sure that our insurance claim won't be denied if we ever need to make one. It might be a good idea to speak to some professionals who can help us keep our home protected. 8/5/2019 12:51:07 pm
