What is a Hail Storm?

Simply put, hailstorm occurs during heavy rain when the temperature drops and the water particles form ice lumps. The size of these hailstones varies, a large hailstone will harm your property more severely compared to a tiny one. The extent to which hails can damage your properties depends on many things, for example, the speed of the wind, frequency of the storm, and how exposed your building is to the hailstorm.

Roofs and windows are at major risk during this time. The hailstones can create dents and holes in your roof and can crack the windows. However, you should also check the sidings and rain gutters for possible damages after a storm.

Possible Precautions You Can Take

• Repair roof damages: If your roof has been damaged by storms previously, get it repaired even if the problem isn't serious. Because a damaged roof is prone to hailstorms.
• Keep the trees around your home trimmed: Long or weak branches of trees can fall on your home during storms, so stay safe by keeping them trimmed.
• Be informed and stay alert: Needless to say, you have to keep yourself updated on the weather reports and warnings and be prepared for a catastrophe.
  Even if you have taken all the necessary precautions, hailstorms cannot be prevented. Storms that produce large hailstones will ultimately harm your property, be it big or small.

Damages of a Hailstorm

The first thing that gets affected by hailstones is the roof. Different materials on your roof will be affected differently. For example, if you have a wooden shingled roof, hails can split shingles that have sharp corners and edges. Whereas, for asphalt shingle, a hailstorm can cause loss of granules that expose the roofing felt. Along with the roof, your windows, sidings, and gutters are also vulnerable to hail damage.

After the roof, the gutters of your house suffer the most during a storm as hail often bents the gutters and strips paints and protective coatings off them in the process.
Windows and sidings come next in the list. Bigger hailstones will not only crack your windows it might break it off completely. And as for the sidings, hails can chip or crack the material of it causing possible water leakages.
