Storm Damage?
We Make Roof Restoration Simple.
What Is Hail Damage?
Shingles are made of 3 layers:
Mineral granules on top
A layer of asphalt in the middle
A fiberglass mat on bottom
-
When hailstones impact the mineral granules on top, they knock them off and bruise the shingle. This leaves the asphalt layer underneath compromised and susceptible to the weather elements. These elements (wind, sun, rain, and freezing temperatures) contribute to the damage initially caused by hail. When left unresolved, additional granules will begin to release from the hail damaged shingles and from the hail hits themselves, due to the asphalt becoming brittle from being exposed. This will eventually lead to a leak. In fact, the large majority of roofs Ember Roofing replaces have water leaks affecting the decking underneath the roofing system. A large portion of roofs also having missing shingles, which is a result of the shingle becoming brittle from hail damage, and then giving way when hit by high winds. These scenarios will eventually lead to leaks inside the home.

How Payments Work
At Ember Roofing, we are committed to keeping our clients informed and supported throughout the insurance process. Our goal is to ensure you receive full coverage for your roof restoration, and here, we break down the key stages of the insurance payment process.
-
Your deductible is the initial investment you make toward your roof restoration before your insurance coverage takes effect.
-
ACV (Actual Cash Value) is what your roof is worth today, after depreciation. This is not the full cost of replacement but rather what your roof is worth at the time of the claim.
-
Supplements cover additional repairs or materials that weren’t included in the initial insurance assessment but are essential to completing the job properly.
-
As a roof ages, it naturally loses value due to wear, weather, and time—this is called depreciation. When your insurance issues the initial payment, they deduct this amount, covering only what your roof is worth at the time of the claim (Actual Cash Value).
Understanding Hail Damage: Impacts, Risks, and Insurance Deadlines
-
A: Asphalt shingles are coated with granules (the exterior coating) to protect the roofing material from the elements. Hailstones can knock granules off of asphalt shingles, leaving the surface looking rough or bald in spots
-
A: Yes! If Roofs Are Left Unchecked, The Damage Can Significantly Compound Over Time Which Can lead To Leaks, Missing Shingles Or Worse.
-
A: Insurance Companies Typically Only Give 1 Year From The Storm Date To Allow You To File Your Claim. That’s Why it’s Extremely Important To File Sooner Rather Than Later.
