Hail damage signs on shingles
Sooner Exterior Home Services
Look for circular bruises where granules are missing and the mat beneath feels soft. Random pattern, sharp edges, and hits on all slopes distinguish hail from wear.
Check soft metal first – gutters, vents, flashing and the garage door dent at hail sizes that may not fracture a shingle. Wear looks uniform and follows sun exposure; hail is scattered and directional. Do not walk the roof to check – most of it is visible from the ground with binoculars.
