Cumming Storm & Hail Damage Check

Signs of storm and hail damage on a Cumming roof

Hail damage often isn't obvious from the ground. By the time you see a leak, water has usually been getting in for a while. Watch for:

• Bruising and missing granules. Hail knocks the protective granules off shingles, leaving dark, soft spots. You may find the granules piling up in your gutters.
• Dents on metal. Check gutters, downspouts, vents, flashing, and the top of your AC unit. Dents there usually mean the roof took hits too.
• Lifted or missing shingles. High winds break the seal under shingles or tear them off, especially on the windward side and along ridges. Open, wind-exposed lakeside lots take the brunt of it.
• Interior stains. Brown rings on a ceiling or damp spots in the attic mean water is already getting past the roof.

How roof insurance claims work in Georgia

If a covered storm damaged your roof, your homeowner's policy may pay for repair or a full replacement, and you typically owe only your deductible. The keys are timing and documentation. Georgia policies generally require you to file within a year or two of the storm, and the damage has to be documented properly for the adjuster.
