Understanding Hail Damage, Insurance Claims & the May 30, 2025 Filing Deadline


When a severe storm hits, your roof takes the brunt of the damage—often in ways that aren’t immediately visible. At New Generation Roofing, we help homeowners understand hail damage, navigate insurance claims, and take action before it’s too late.

Important Deadline: File Your Claim Before May 30, 2025

If your home was hit by the May 2024 hailstorm, you must file your insurance claim by May 30, 2025. Most policies allow just one year to report storm damage—miss the deadline, and you could be responsible for the full cost of repairs. Don’t wait—schedule an inspection today!

What is Hail Damage?

Hailstones—balls of ice formed during storms—can cause bruising, cracks, and dents on your roof. Left unchecked, this damage can lead to leaks, poor insulation, and costly repairs over time. Asphalt shingles, metal, and tile roofs are all vulnerable, and some damage may not be immediately visible.

Signs of Hail Damage

Obvious damage includes missing shingles or dents on metal roofs. Less noticeable signs include:
  • Granule loss on asphalt shingles
  • Cracked or dented flashing around vents & chimneys
  • Leaks or water stains inside your home
A professional inspection is the best way to catch hidden damage before it worsens. New Generation Roofing’s experts are here to help!

How to File a Hail Damage Insurance Claim

If hail has damaged your roof, filing an insurance claim can cover repair costs. Here’s the process:
  1. Report the Damage – Call your insurance provider ASAP. If your roof was hit in May 2024, you must file by May 30, 2025.
  2. Schedule an Inspection – Your insurer may send an adjuster, but we recommend an independent inspection from New Generation Roofing to ensure all damage is documented.
  3. Get a Repair Estimate – Your contractor will provide an estimate, which your insurance adjuster will review to determine coverage.
  4. Approval & Repairs – Once approved, repairs begin. We’ll work with your insurer to ensure a smooth process and high-quality restoration.

Why Acting Fast Matters

Waiting too long to file a claim can result in denial, leaving you to cover repairs out of pocket. Plus, minor hail damage can escalate into leaks, mold, and structural issues if left unaddressed. Acting now ensures your claim is approved and your home stays protected.
