After a hailstorm rolls through Michigan, it’s easy to focus on fallen branches or broken windows. But some of the most damaging storm effects are the ones you don’t notice right away—like small dents in your roof or siding. Left untreated, these hidden damages can lead to leaks, mold, and costly repairs down the road.
At Aaron Builders, we’ve helped thousands of homeowners and business owners recover from hail damage with fast inspections, insurance support, and certified repairs. Here’s what to look for—and how we can help.

Signs of Hail Damage You Can Spot Yourself
Even if everything looks okay from the ground, hail can cause serious harm. Start by checking for:
- Dents or dimples on metal gutters, downspouts, or flashing
- Granule loss on asphalt shingles (you may see bald spots or find granules in gutters)
- Cracks, splits, or discoloration on vinyl siding
- Shingles that appear bruised, lifted, or missing
- Chipped paint, window screens, or damaged AC units
Tip: If you see any signs of hail impact, it’s a good idea to call a professional—especially because many signs aren’t visible without a roof-level inspection.
Why Quick Action Matters After a Hailstorm
You might think a few dents aren’t a big deal—but hail damage can shorten the lifespan of your roof or siding and lead to:
- Water leaks
- Mold or mildew
- Increased energy bills
- Insurer claim denials if too much time passes
Many policies have time limits on how long after a storm you can file a claim, so acting fast protects your property—and your wallet.
