What to check after hail
- Dents in gutters, downspouts, vents and the fins of the air-conditioner (the soft metals show hail first)
- Granules piling up at the downspout outlets
- Shingle bruises you can feel but not always see from the yard
- Cracked skylights, broken window screens, chipped paint on decks
A free inspection settles it either way: a look at every slope and the soft metals, photographs of anything the storm left, and a plain answer about whether it is worth a claim. Absolute Professional Roofing Contractors does that in University Park, call +1 972-596-7857.
Questions University Park homeowners ask
- When was the last hail storm in University Park?
September 24, 2024. Weather radar put 1 inch hail over University Park, covering about 56% of it, on September 24, 2024. Hail that size (quarter) can bruise asphalt shingles and dent gutters, downspouts and air-conditioner fins; this is the size the National Weather Service calls severe.
- How many storms has University Park had since 2023?
2 storm days reached the National Weather Service's severe line in or within a mile of University Park: 1 with hail, 1 with high wind. Each one is listed on this page with its date and what was reported.
- Does a storm in University Park mean my roof is damaged?
No. It means the storm reached your area at a strength that can mark a roof, which is why insurers and roofers both look after one. Hail of an inch or more and gusts of 58 mph or more are the sizes that can leave damage you cannot see from the yard, so the next step is a look at the roof, not a decision.
- How do you know a storm reached my street?
From the National Weather Service: its storm reports (hail sizes and wind speeds called in by trained spotters, emergency managers and weather stations), its warnings and damage surveys, and the radar hail estimates it publishes. The street check on this page reads the same records for one address.
The next step after a hail storm like this is a look at the roof.
