Hail damage on a Manassas roof is often invisible from the yard. A bruise in an asphalt shingle is a soft spot where the granules were knocked off and the mat underneath cracked.
The roofer starts with the soft metal: vents, drip edge and flashing show dents first. Hail size matters. Pea-size stones rarely hurt a roof, while stones near an inch or larger can bruise shingles.
Hail repairs run $500 to $5,000. Hail size, the number of slopes hit and shingle age move the price. Insurance may cover sudden hail damage, not wear, and a deductible applies.
Roofs in Old Town Manassas and along Liberia Avenue that are already near the end of their life often fail faster after hail. The roofer marks each bruise on a slope to show whether repair or replacement makes sense.
Technician insight
On a Manassas street after hail, the dented gutters and vents on one roof tell the roofer what the shingles on the next roof took. Soft metal shows the hail size.
