Do I really need to fix hail damage on my roof?

• <div><p>In most cases, yes, you should fix hail damage to your roof. For asphalt roofs that experience hail damage, the shingles can crack and tear from impact, potentially exposing the underlayment and other building material underneath to water and pests. You might save an average of <b>$1,100</b> by neglecting repairs, but water damage can cost significantly more. Even on a metal roof, where penetration isn’t a concern, the dents hail can leave behind can detract from your curb appeal, potentially making your home less valuable.</p></div>

Q: Why is hail damage bad for a roof?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-is-hail-damage-bad-for-roof.htm">Hail damage is bad for a roof</a> because it can leave the roof vulnerable to the elements. Hail may leave more than dents or scratches behind. It can actually cause the shingles to crack, which means water can leak into your home from the roof. Hail can also wear down the granules on the shingles. Without these granules, the shingles are weaker and more vulnerable to the elements, particularly wind. If the hailstorm is accompanied by high winds, it may take your shingles with it. </p></div>

Q: Will my homeowners insurance go up if I file a roof claim?

• <div><p>Your insurance premium may increase if you file a roof claim or any other type of claim. Changes to your premium will depend on your insurance company, the size of the claim, and the number of claims you&rsquo;ve made. Insurers may also increase rates at renewal based on factors outside of your control, such as changing weather patterns.</p></div>

Q: What does hail damage look like on a roof?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-does-hail-damage-look-like.htm">Hail damage to a roof looks</a> different depending on the type of roof. On asphalt roofs, you&rsquo;ll likely see dark circles on the impact sites of the larger pieces of hail, and you may see small cracks in the surrounding shingles. Hail damage is easiest to spot on a metal roof, as you&rsquo;ll notice dings and dents where the hail was severe enough to cause damage. Whether you notice signs of hail damage or not, it&rsquo;s best to have a hail damage repair company inspect your roof after a major storm to assess the damage.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal for windows to rattle in the wind?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not normal for windows to rattle in the wind. If they do, it may signal that there&rsquo;s a larger problem at play. Common reasons that windows rattle in the wind are because the glass isn&rsquo;t secure enough, the frame is loose, or the wood is rotting. In any of these cases, you should identify the problem and take steps to fix it.</p></div>

JerMar us done quite a bit of work for us in the past but we found out the hard way that the company has few employees and is not capable of supporting customers in a crisis such as a hurricane. Do not rely on JerMar.
