How to Spot Storm Damage on Your Roof: DIY Checklist

Published: June 1, 2026 | Written by: Steve R., Quality Inspector | Reading Time: 4 min read

After a severe storm, inspect your property from the ground to check for damage:

1. Check the Ground

Look for shingles or metal flashing sections that have blown off onto your lawn or driveway.

2. Look at Gutters and Downspouts

Check for heavy shingle granule accumulation, which indicates hail impact has stripped shingle coatings.

3. Inspect the Attic

Check for active water spots, damp rafters, or wet insulation under your roof deck.
