    AC needs to combed and it broke the bay vent. Siding is wood, splinterd the edges and some of the dents are splinterd up. I just don't want water getting in and freezing and breaking up the siding.
    Don't be stupid!!!!!

    I was happy with the people I used. Several of my relatives have used them and were pleased as well. I can PM you the info in a bit.

    Well, it was our turn last night in Dacono. We had 20-30 minutes of 1? to 1 1/4? hail. Started impacting the north face of the house and ended up impacting the south face near the end of the storm.

    I really don?t want to file a claim for no reason. I?m expecting once the house dries I will see some marks in the paint. I already see some chips in the vinyl edges of the window. Does insurance typically replace windows for that type of damage? Or repaint for hail spots (I?m thinking a good power wash would fix the paint).

    Trees were decimated. Backyard willow was nearly denuded.


    Neighbors behind us lost glass.


    My windows and screens just have minor damage. Are these chips in the plastic/vinyl worth looking into repair?

    That chip is a broken window frame that warrents replacement of the whole window.
    By the time you arrive at broken window frame and glass, it's a great chance that your roof is damaged. Sorry to hear.

    Thanks Irving, I was hoping you would respond.

    We have a 3 year old roof with Owens Corning Duration STORM class 4 shingles. What are the chances the class 4 did its job and withstood the storm?

    On a side note, I didn?t notice much damage to our vehicles. Is that any indication of or have any correlation to roof damage?

    Truck doesn?t quite fit!

    Just redid my roof, also in the same area. Not looking forward to looking outside this morning. I seriously thought we were going to lose a window. Hail wasn't huge but seemed denser than normal.

    Generally vehicles will show dents before a roof will show damage, but that's not a very strong rule of thumb. Class 4 is rated to withstand impacts from hail that is 1/4" larger than a non-class 4 shingle. With broken window you very well may have damage. One thing that Class 4 does well is to shrug off impacts on the leeward side in very directional storms, or on stepper roofs. This means you can have one or two sides totalled, with either nothing, or just a repair on the other roof slopes.

    On another note, allegedly there was 5.5" hail in Bethune last night, which breaks the state record by an inch! I was actually driving into that storm last night but got held up in Kit Carson and the storm went off to the side of the highway.

    The world record hail is 8" and was in South Dakota.

    Wow! We had softball sized hail in Ohio when I was a kid. We kept them in the freezer for the adjuster to see. Imagine aluminum siding and windows....

    I don?t have broken glass, but 6 damaged window frames on opposite sides of the house. Clear hail marks on both sides of siding.

    The roof looks like hell!
