Claims for hail damage to roofing, siding, and windows are on the rise. If you live in an area where you can get hail large enough to cause damage to your roof, siding or windows, you will want to know how and when to file an insurance claim for damages, as your homeowners insurance may cover the cost of repairs or replacement.

There are lots of things that can go wrong with your roof, and everyone can cause expensive damage if they are not properly repaired. Damages can include leaks from storms, mold in your attic from water leaks, and even squirrels and other animals setting up residence in your home through your damaged roof.
