I've seen thousands of hail claims for roof damage from roofers going door to door and homeowners swearing they have hail damage on their 18 yr old roof that has been worn to shite in south LA climate. But we never get anyone calling with auto claims for hail damage to their cars. I know not everyone is parked in a garage. How does the hail know to only land on the roof?


The hail needed to damage a roof is less than the hail size to damage a vehicle, especially an older roof. Hail damage is looking at the damages to the fiberglass matting of the shingle. Older roofs have shed more of the aggregate due to weather so they have less protection from the hail.

So older roofs should be changed out by insurance carriers? That isn't sustainable. What happened to home maintenance?
