Why You Should Get a Roof Inspection After a Hailstorm

Protect Your Home & Investment With a Professional Roofing Inspection

After a Texas hailstorm, most people check their cars for dents or their yards for damage—but what about your roof? It’s your home’s first line of defense, and when hail strikes, the damage isn’t always visible from the ground. Whether you live in San Antonio, La Vernia, or the surrounding area, getting a professional roof inspection after a hailstorm could save you thousands in long-term repairs.

🔍 What Hail Really Does to Your Roof Shingles

When large hail—especially 1-inch or larger hailstones—slams into your roof, it can cause serious and often hidden damage to your asphalt shingles. Here's what typically happens:

  • Granule Loss: The top layer of your shingles (the granules) can be knocked off, exposing the underlying asphalt. This weakens UV protection and accelerates aging.

  • Bruising: Hail can cause soft spots, or "bruises," in the shingle that are hard to spot but compromise its integrity.

  • Cracks & Fractures: Large hail impacts can crack the fiberglass mat under the surface, leading to future leaks and structural issues.

  • Shingle Displacement: In some cases, the hail hits so hard it loosens or knocks shingles off completely—inviting water damage.

Even if your roof looks fine, these types of damage can void your manufacturer’s warranty or insurance coverage if not addressed quickly.

🛑 Why a Post-Storm Roof Inspection is Critical

If you've recently experienced a hailstorm, don’t wait for a leak to show up. By then, the damage may have spread. Here’s why you should schedule an inspection immediately:

  • Catch Damage Early – Avoid expensive repairs later by spotting issues now.

  • Insurance Claims Support – A certified inspection provides documentation that can support your hail damage insurance claim.

  • Peace of Mind – Know that your home or building is safe and protected.

  • Extend Roof Life – Minor repairs now can extend the life of your roof by years.
