3 Easy-to-Miss Signs of Storm, Hail and Wind Damage

1. Scattered Branches

After a storm with high winds, you’ll likely see a good amount of blown and fallen debris, especially if you live in a wooded area. When it’s safe to go outside, walk around your property and look for any fallen tree branches. If you find a lot of debris scattered around, it’s a pretty safe bet that some also landed on your roof. If you see heavier objects such as lawn furniture and construction materials scattered around, you can get a good sense of just how strong the wind was.

2. Asphalt Granules

If a recent hailstorm was particularly destructive, it will be easy to tell if there’s damage as you will likely have dents on your siding, gutters and roof. However, hailstorms are not always so severe. What you can do to make sure is check to see if there are any granules that have been knocked loose in your gutters.

3. Dents on Your Flashing

A lot of times, hail damage can be difficult to spot on an asphalt shingle roof due to its texture and color. This is why you should check the flashing. Seeing as flashing is made of thin pieces of metal, damage to them will be more obvious.
