Hail Damage Inspections

DFW Hail Damage Roof Inspections

Dallas–Fort Worth sits right in the middle of the country's most active hail belt. Even a short storm can bruise shingles, knock granules loose, and dent soft metals — and most of it isn't visible from the ground. Ballistic Raider Roofing provides free hail damage roof inspections with detailed photo documentation you can share with your insurance carrier.

Common Signs You Need This

Shingle granules building up in gutters and downspouts
Dark bruised circles on the shingle surface
Dents on vent caps, turbines, gutters, or flashing
Cracked, split, or missing shingles after a storm
Torn ridge cap shingles along the peak of the roof
Damaged screens on windows or dents on garage doors
Water leaks that appear weeks or months after a hailstorm
A hailstorm rolled through your ZIP code recently

Why This Matters in Texas

Texas hail can hit hard and disappear in ten minutes — but the damage stays. Hail bruises shingles and knocks off the granules that protect them from UV, which shortens the life of the roof and eventually opens the door to leaks. Because most of the damage isn't visible from the ground, homeowners often don't realize how badly they were hit until months later. Documenting damage quickly matters because most insurance carriers have a limited window for filing hail-related claims.

What We Check During Your Free Inspection

  • Every slope of the roof — hail patterns are not always uniform
  • Shingle bruising, granule loss, and cracked/torn shingles
  • Dents on vent caps, turbines, gutters, and metal flashing
  • Ridge cap and hip cap condition
  • Skylight domes and satellite dish brackets
  • Windows, screens, garage doors, and other soft metals on the property
  • Attic inspection for leaks, staining, and daylight (when accessible)
  • Full photo documentation of everything we find
