Common questions
How big does hail have to be to damage a roof
Stones around one inch across can mark an asphalt roof, and older or brittle shingles bruise at less than that.
Does hail damage always mean a full replacement
No. Scattered hits on one slope can be repaired. Whether an insurer pays for one slope or the whole roof depends on the policy and on matching.
