What hail actually does

Hail rarely punches a hole. It bruises the mat beneath the granules, knocking loose the protective layer and starting a clock on a roof that still looks perfectly normal from the ground. That is exactly why so many homeowners around Eldon, Versailles, Stover and Lincoln assume they came through a storm untouched.

We chalk a ten-by-ten test square, count the strikes inside it, and photograph the bruising. That density count is the same standard method an insurance adjuster applies.

Wind at the lake

Wind damage here is concentrated and directional. On lakefront property it hits the slope facing open water, lifting shingles at the eave and stripping the ridge and the windward rake. Inland, in terrain like Richland or Stoutland, it scatters — one street hit hard, the next untouched.

Either way, the evidence has to be documented rather than described. A claim stands on photographs.

Insurance claims, handled straight

We will meet your adjuster on site, show what we documented, and make sure the scope reflects the actual damage including outbuildings, detached garages, boathouses and gutters that are routinely missed.

What we will not do is tell you to file a claim on a roof that does not have storm damage. That is a favor to nobody.

Common questions

How soon after a storm should I get inspected?
Promptly. Most policies have a time limit for reporting storm damage, and damage documented early is far easier to attribute to a specific event.
Should I sign with the company that knocked on my door?
Ask how long they have been in Missouri and who will honor the workmanship warranty in five years. After a hail event, out-of-state crews work these towns hard. We have been here since 1947.
What if the damage does not justify a claim?
Then we tell you that, and you keep the inspection photos for your records at no cost.
