DFW BEST ROOFING'S TECHNICAL BULLETIN

** The Effect Of Hail On Shingles **


The Impact of hail on shingles can cause the following:


  1. It can remove and fracture the granule surfacing material. This may be obvious after hail storms that have large hail or storms that hail for extended periods of time. this damage to the shingles may or may not be obvious.
  2. The granule surfacing material is loosened. This will not immediately show up as visual damage. This will cause the shingles to loose granule over time at an accelerated rate and lead to premature failure.

Shingle Structure and Purpose


The granules protect the asphalt from sunlight and ultravilet (UV) light. Sunlight and UV will deteriorate the asphalt. The asphalt will deteriorate very quickly once exposed
to the sun. Any accelerated granule loss will significantly reduce the life of the shingle. It has been expressed that there is 25% more granules on a shingle than what is needed.

This is not true. Some granules are not actually embedded in the asphalt when the shingle is produced and will come off the roof in the first year after application.


After the first year the shingle does not carry any more granules that are necessary to protect the shingles for its’ intended life expectancy.


If there has been a hail storm in your area, make sure to have your roof checked by an expert regarding your roof repair in Texas.
