Hail damage can range from very obvious to the untrained eye to very difficult to see. We have the experience and training to discern actual hail damage from other conditions.



Many claim assignments are initiated by contractors telling the insured they have hail damage. The insured files a claim based on this information without any knowledge of what may be damaged. Often there is no damage at all.

​

These contractors are counting on an inexperienced adjuster to come out. That will not happen with Eddy Claims Service. We have extensive experience in assessing hail damage. If there is damage we will find it. If not, we will have evidence to document hail did not fall at this location.

​

There are many roof conditions, particularly on asphalt shingles that can appear to be hail damage to the novice. These conditions include lichens, heat blisters, mechanical damage and general wear.



Hail will always leave us indicators that can validate its presence. We start our hail inspections with a thorough examination of all items on a building that can be dented or marked by hail. We use representative test squares on all roofing exposures to look for hail damage. 



You can rest assured that if we estimate hail repairs hail actually caused the damage. We also pride ourselves on the thoroughness of our hail damage assessments. We rarely miss anything. 



Our extensive background and experience in the Twin Cities gives us a strong historical perspective on hail losses. Often we are called out to inspect hail damage that is many years old. Our knowledge of prior storms in this area can be a useful asset in these situations.
