Hail Damage

According to the National Weather Service, hail results in roughly $1 billion in damages per year in the United States. Hail threatens most areas of the United States, and the country sustains on average of 3,000 hailstorms per year. Commercial roof structures, like any roof systems, are vulnerable to the damaging effects of hail.

While most commercial roof systems are designed to resist damage from hail, severe hail events can still cause considerable damage to these roofing systems. Donan Engineering studies numerous commercial roofs each year for hail damage. We apply a systematic and logical approach to each roof, where we place just as much emphasis on the collateral damages from hail (or lack thereof) as we do on the condition of the roofs themselves, so that a confirmed correlation may be made between what is documented on the roof and what can be conclusively linked to a particular hail event.

Donan Engineering’s team of professional engineers has the knowledge and experience to successfully study hail losses to all types of commercial roof systems.
