OKLAHOMA CITY - OklaNews -- As hail damage can often mimic natural aging, Triple Diamond Construction's latest blog, "Hail Damage vs. Regular Wear and Tear: How to Tell the Difference," breaks down key indicators to help homeowners assess their roofs more accurately.

"Hailstorms cause distinct damage that can lead to long-term issues if left untreated," said Greg Derr, owner of Triple Diamond Construction. "Knowing the difference between hail damage and regular wear is essential for preventing costly future repairs and ensuring insurance coverage."

Key points from the blog include:

• Bruised or Dented Shingles: Hail impact leaves soft spots or dents, while normal wear results in more uniform, gradual deterioration.
• Granule Loss Patterns: While aging shingles lose granules over time, hail damage often causes localized bare spots.
• Dented Metal Components: Hail can dent flashing, gutters, and vents, unlike the gradual degradation from regular exposure.
• Signs of Aging: Wear-related issues include curling shingles, algae growth, and cracking from thermal stress, typically unrelated to storm damage.

Triple Diamond Construction recommends homeowners schedule an inspection if they suspect recent hail damage, helping protect roof integrity and avoid denied claims due to misidentified wear.
