How to check your roof for hail damage
- From the ground, look for dents on gutters, downspouts, window wraps, vents, and A/C fins. Soft metal shows hail size and direction.
- Look for shingle granules collecting at downspout outlets.
- Dark spots or bruises on shingles, cracked tile, or dented metal panels can mean impact damage. Small damage often isn't visible from the ground.
- Do not climb on the roof. A free inspection from a licensed local roofer is safer.
Document it now
- Take dated photos of the roof, gutters, siding, windows, and any hail you collected (next to a coin or ruler).
- Write down the storm date (June 20, 2026) and when you first noticed damage.
- Cover active leaks with a tarp only if it's safe, and keep receipts.
- Read your policy for deadlines. Only your insurer decides what is covered.
Beware of storm chasers
After a storm, out-of-town crews often knock on doors. Check that a roofer has a local address, any required state or city license, and insurance, and never sign a contract on the spot. See the FTC's advice[2] and our storm chaser guide.
Next steps
Get a free, no-obligation inspection. A local contractor documents what they find, and you decide what to do. See roof replacement cost in Greeley or all Colorado cities.
