Hail and storm damage insurance repair in Macomb Township, MI
Hail does more than hit shingles. It dents gutters and vents and knocks granules loose, and you can't see all of that from the ground.
After hail or a hard storm in Macomb Township, a free inspection checks the roof and gutters together. You get photos of what turns up and a written repair scope. Your insurance company decides what's covered.
Where do you look for hail damage?
Hail damage shows up on the shingles first, then on the metal parts of the roof and on the gutters. The inspection checks all of it:
- shingles for bruises, cracks or missing pieces
- flashing and roof vents for dents
- gutters and downspouts for dents or bends
- granules washed into the gutters
- new water stains inside the home
Granules are an easy clue to check yourself. Look at the bottom of a downspout after the storm, no ladder needed.
Gutters take storm damage too
Wind, hail and heavy rain can damage gutters as well as roofs. Storm-damaged gutters can be repaired, and the damage is photographed along with the roof.
When a section is too far gone to repair, new gutters are the better choice.
We install seamless gutters and downspouts to carry rainwater away from your home and foundation.

From photos to a plan
The photos come first. Then you get a straight answer on whether a repair is enough or a replacement makes more sense. The recommendation and scope are in writing, and nothing starts until you decide.
During the work, your landscaping, windows, siding and driveway stay covered, and the site stays organized. The job finishes with a magnetic nail sweep, haul-away of the debris and a final walkthrough with you.
Questions about hail damage in Macomb Township
What are signs of hail damage on a roof?
Look for shingles with dark bruises or cracks, bare spots where granules are gone, and dents in vents, flashing, gutters or downspouts. Granules collecting in gutters or at downspout outlets are another clue. Some marks are hard to judge from the ground, and close-up photos settle the question.
Can you repair gutters damaged in a storm?
Yes. Gutters bent, dented or pulled loose by wind or hail can be repaired, and the damage goes into the same photo record as the roof. If a repair isn't practical, new seamless gutters and downspouts are the next step.
Should I get class 3 or class 4 shingles?
Class 3 and Class 4 are impact-resistance ratings for shingles, and Class 4 is the higher rating. The right choice depends on your roof, your budget and what matters most to you. We install asphalt shingles and metal roofing and can talk through the options once we've seen your home.
Does hail always mean a new roof?
No. Light hail can leave little or no damage, and damage in a few spots can often be repaired. The photos show which situation you're in.
Is a hail damage inspection free?
Yes, the inspection is free. You see the photos and the written scope before you decide anything.
