Signs of hail on your roof
- Dents or dark spots on shingles where the grit got knocked off. Gutters often fill with that grit after a storm.
- Dings in metal vents, flashing, gutters and downspouts. They are easy to see from the ground and help show hail hit the roof.
- Cracked or split shingles, or tabs that lifted in the wind that came with the storm.
- A new ceiling stain or wet attic wood. That is a leak, so open the leak page now.
How the claim works
Call us first, and a roofer documents the hail damage for your claim. Take photos and video of the damage before anything is moved, then file as soon as you can.
Colorado law is on your side. A roofer may not pay or waive your deductible. If the insurer denies the claim, Section 6-22-104 lets you cancel a contract paid from insurance within seventy-two hours of the written denial. Section 6-22-103 adds a second cancel rule: you can cancel and get “a full refund of any deposit within seventy-two hours after entering the contract”.
Never sign the insurance check over to a roofer, the FTC warns.
Newest change: On June 4, 2026, Colorado signed SB 26-155. It sets up Strengthen Colorado Homes, a state grant of up to $10,000 per home for a hail-resistant roof. (Smart Home America)
