What to do if your experiencing Hail Damage

If you’re in or around these neighborhoods, your home could have hidden roof or siding damage.

Don’t wait until leaks or bigger problems show up — take advantage of a no-cost, no-obligation inspection today.

At Oliwill Construction, we understand the rising costs cascading through several major sectors right now, leading people to feel that property improvements are lower on the priority list.

However, with flexible financing options, we can jump-start your project while comfortably spreading the financial impact.

🏡 1. Roof and Exterior Upgrades

Impact-Resistant Roofing: If you are replacing your roof in a hail-prone area, choose Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, synthetic slate, or coated metals to dramatically reduce your risk of damage

Window and Door Protection: Install permanent roll-down storm shutters, sliding protective panels, or replace standard glass with impact-resistant, wind-rated glass. 


☔️ 2. Pre-Storm Preparation

Shelter Vehicles: Always park your car in a garage or carport when a severe storm approaches. If you lack covered parking, consider draping heavy blankets or a specialized cover like a Hail Jacket over your vehicle. 

Secure the Yard: High winds usually accompany hail. Bring toys, patio furniture, grills, and decorative items indoors so they don’t break or become flying projectiles. 

Window Defenses: Close all blinds, curtains, and drapes. This acts as a barrier to help reduce injury from flying glass in the event a window shatters.

Trim Trees: Routinely remove weak or dead branches to prevent them from snapping and striking your property during the storm.


📑3.Insurance and Property Maintenance

Review Your Policy: Check your homeowner’s and auto insurance policies to ensure you have adequate coverage specifically for hail and wind damage. 

Inspect Vulnerable Fixtures: Frequently check the condition of your skylights and roof vents. Older, brittle plastics are highly susceptible to cracking during major hailstorms.
