#1 MISTAKE IN IDENTIFIYING HAIL DAMAGE ON YOUR ROOF!

#1 Mistake In Identifying Hail Damage. This is Not a Hail Damage!

Those are actually algae streaks caused by moisture and heat combining on the roof. And they don't even have to be caused by improper ventilation or drainage on your own roof. Algae particles from a neighboring roof can go airborne and land on your roof, causing the same ugly streaks to form.

While the streaks do not impact the strength and durability of your roof, they definitely do make for an unsightly covering on your home and may make your home appear much older and worn than it actually is. The streaks can be an eyesore and make your home tougher to sell as it loses its curbside appeal. Oftentimes, roofs are replaced not because of structural damage or shingle problems, but because of algae streaks giving the home a lesser appearance.

I’m an insurance adjuster and have to wrestle with roof sales people all the time about what is considered hail damage. Thanks for the video. Good stuff!

Mistaking blisters for hail damage is a bigger, more common mistake than algae.

[RoofingFacts]

Another super common one is mistaking pigeon damages for hail damage, and degradation from hail on a hot day has functional damage vs cosmetic.

thanks! do you have one for heat damage? i'm in TX lol

If the shingles have dips in them and are discolored that is hail damage.

Man this guy is one of the most knowledgeable people talking about hail damage. I’ve been fighting with door knockers for 7 months now and only bough 2 roofs from old hail. It’s all about numbers with the crooked salesmen.

Lack of any closeup views renders this video pointless.
