Everyone has experienced a hail storm at one point or another no matter where they are from. Hail can occur in any area of the country and more often than we want. Sometimes people do not realize the severe damage that hail can cause to your home. Some hail is very small like a pea, but it can also be golf ball sized hail which could be extremely dangerous. All sizes of hail can cause divots and bruises to your roof, siding or windows. This damage can decrease the value of your home.
