Don't Panic, But Don't Wait
After a significant hailstorm, your roof may have damage you can't see from the ground. Hail impacts crack shingles and compromise the waterproofing layer.
Step 1: Document Everything
Photograph your property from multiple angles before touching anything. Insurance companies want documentation.
Step 2: Call a Local Roofer First
Call a local, licensed roofing contractor for a free inspection BEFORE calling insurance. A professional inspection ensures nothing is missed when the adjuster visits.
Step 3: Be Cautious of Door Knockers
After every storm, out-of-town contractors go door-to-door. Ask for their local address, Minnesota license number, and proof of insurance.
