Asphalt shingles are equipped with protective mineral granules that shield the underlayment from UV rays. Hail can cause severe granule loss, material removal at the shingle edges, and even penetrate the shingles, all of which can significantly shorten the lifespan of your roof.

Typically, hailstorm damage to your roof is not visible from the ground. While you might notice damage to your siding or gutters; it is safe to assume your roof might be similarly affected if you see damage to your car, windows, or other areas. Because a hail-damaged roof is not always immediately evident, it’s best to contact a local, professional roofing contractor in Oklahoma who specializes in hail damage to accurately assess the condition of your roof after a storm.

If you suspect hail damage, immediately contact Destiny Roofing or another reputable roofing company that specializes in hailstorm damage for an inspection. Also, notify your insurance company to request an adjuster to perform that same inspection. Destiny Roofing will document the hailstorm damage and work directly with your insurance company to ensure necessary repairs or replacements are made.

Not necessarily. Depending on the extent of the hail damage, you might only need a repair to replace some damaged shingles. Even minor repairs should be handled by professionals to avoid compromising surrounding shingles. However, if a full roof replacement is needed, keep in mind that many insurance companies have a statute of limitations, often for only up to one year, for filing a hail damage claim. If you have experienced a loss such as hail damage, it is wise to seek the help of a local, reputable Oklahoma roofing company to take care of the problem in a timely manner before it leads to other related problems.

Homeowners insurance is designed to protect homeowners against losses due to damage beyond their control. In many cases, hail damage results in a full roof replacement because it's more cost-effective for insurance providers than dealing with the potential failure of a compromised roof and subsequent damage to the home's contents.
