Does my roof need to be inspected for hail damage?

You should have your roof inspected following any hail storm. Wind speed and direction also play a role in how much damage hail does to a roof. Even minor damage from hail and wind can have long-term consequences without repair. One small leak can cause major issues, including rot, mold growth, and damage to the structural integrity and interior of your home. During storm season, damage can become cumulative.
