At H&F Exteriors, we specialize in hail damage repairs for shingled roofs. We will inspect your roof and advise you on the best route forward if an insurance claim is necessary.

Why is it important to repair hail damage to your roof?
Hail damage roof repair is important to maintaining your roof’s integrity. When the granules from your shingles are loosened, the asphalt layer underneath is exposed to the elements. Exposure to UV light from the sun can make your shingles brittle, compromising their performance over time. Additionally, exposed shingles can cause leaks, which leads to electrical and mold damage inside your home. The sooner hail damage is repaired, the less likely your home will experience interior damage.
