Wind and hail hurt siding in very different ways. Hail cracks vinyl, more so in cold weather, dents aluminum and steel, and chips or fractures painted fiber cement. Wind lifts the bottom edge of a panel, unlocks it from the course below, and peels whole runs off a wall, often starting at a corner or gable end.
The first job is protecting the house. Open wrap and sheathing get covered as soon as possible, loose panels are fastened, and flapping pieces are secured before they tear off more siding.
Next comes documentation. A careful storm contractor photographs every side of the house first, marks hail hits, measures the damage, and writes a report your adjuster can work from. That record matters when matching becomes an issue, since a repair that cannot be matched may affect how a claim is handled under your policy.
A caution after major storms: be wary of out-of-town crews going door to door. Ask for local references, proof of insurance, and a written contract, and avoid large upfront deposits.

Hail-Damaged Siding

Storm-Related Leak Tracing
Rain pushed behind siding by wind can appear indoors later, and pros find and seal where it got in.
The Post-Storm Siding Inspection
A storm inspection begins by working out direction. Hail and wind come from a prevailing side, so the pro checks which walls faced the storm and compares them to the sheltered sides. Damage concentrated on one or two elevations supports a storm cause, while scattered wear on every side suggests age.
On vinyl, hail hits show as cracks, punctures, or star fractures, often easier to see from an angle in low light. On aluminum and steel, the pro looks for round dents and checks downspouts, window wraps, and AC fins as supporting evidence. Each hit gets circled with chalk and photographed.
For wind, the pro checks whether panels tore or simply unlocked, whether nails pulled through or were placed above the slots, and whether the house wrap behind the missing section tore. Any sheathing that sat exposed to rain gets checked with a moisture meter. Everything goes into a written report for you and your insurance company.

Raj M.Storm leak repair, GatewayCommon Questions After a Storm
What should I do right after a storm damages my siding?
Keep away from fallen lines and unstable trees, take photos of every side of the house, and notify your insurance company. Then call for temporary protection so water does not cause more damage.
Will insurance cover hail or wind damage to my siding?
Sudden storm damage is commonly covered, but your policy and deductible decide. Good photos and a written damage report from the contractor help support the claim.
How do I know if hail damaged my vinyl siding?
Check storm-facing walls for cracks, holes, or star fractures. Low, angled light makes them easier to see. A pro can map and document every hit.
Can storm-damaged siding be matched to the rest of my house?
Often, but older or faded siding can be hard to match. When it cannot be matched, discuss options with your adjuster; how that is handled depends on your policy.
How fast can someone cover exposed walls after a storm?
Storm calls with exposed sheathing are prioritized, and many get temporary protection the same day or the next morning. Response can slow after widespread storms, so call early.
Should I hire the crew knocking on my door after a storm?
Be cautious. Ask for local references, a physical business address, proof of insurance, and a written contract, and avoid large upfront deposits. Calling our line routes you to an independent local pro instead.
