What to Do After Hail Damage in Utah County

Utah County gets hit by hail every spring. Quarter-size hail or larger can damage a roof invisibly — you might not see a leak for 12-18 months after impact.

Don't wait for a leak. Hail knocks granules off shingles, exposing the mat to UV degradation. File a claim too late and your insurer may question whether the damage happened when you claim.

Document the storm. Keep a record of the storm date, hail size, and photos of dented gutters, AC units, or vehicles. Insurance adjusters use this as corroboration.

Get a professional inspection. We provide an insurance-grade assessment with photographs of all impact bruising, gutter documentation, damage measurements, and a written report for your adjuster.

When you file the claim, an adjuster will be assigned within a few days. Having your roofing contractor present at the adjuster meeting ensures damage isn't missed and the scope is complete.

A claim denial isn't final. We've helped Utah County homeowners successfully appeal denied claims with additional documentation.
