Check your declarations page for hail-specific deductibles, which may be expressed as a percentage of insured value rather than a flat amount.
How big does hail need to be to damage a roof?
Hail 0.75" (dime-size) can dent soft metals. Hail 1.0" (quarter-size) bruises asphalt shingles and causes granule loss. Hail 1.5"+ (golf ball-size) causes structural damage most insurers will cover for full replacement. A qualified roofing contractor or public adjuster can identify claim-eligible damage that isn't visible to the untrained eye.
What time of year does Virginia get the most hail?
Virginia averages 100 hail storms per year, with peak activity during April – July. This is when warm, moist air from the Gulf meets dry air from the west, creating the atmospheric instability that fuels severe thunderstorms and hail-producing supercells.
