Hail and wind damage siding in different ways. Hail fractures vinyl, especially when it is cold and brittle, dents aluminum and steel, and chips or cracks painted fiber cement. Wind catches the bottom edge of a panel, pops it off the course below, and strips long runs, usually starting at a corner or gable.
Protecting the structure comes first. Exposed house wrap and sheathing get covered the same day when possible, loose panels get fastened, and anything flapping in the wind gets secured before it takes more siding with it.
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 helps when matching comes up, because how an unmatched repair is treated depends on your policy.
One more thing after big storms: be careful with out-of-area crews knocking on doors. Ask for local references, proof of insurance, and a written contract, and avoid large upfront deposits.

How a Storm Pro Assesses Siding After Hail and Wind
A storm inspection begins by working out direction. Storms hit from a dominant direction, so the pro compares the exposed walls with the sheltered ones. Damage concentrated on the storm-facing walls points to the storm, while even wear on every side suggests aging.
On vinyl, hail hits show as cracks, punctures, or star fractures, often easier to see from an angle in low light. On metal siding, the pro looks for round dents and checks gutters, window wraps, and condenser fins for matching marks. Each hit gets circled with chalk and photographed.
With wind damage, the pro looks at whether panels ripped or just unlocked, whether nails pulled out or were set too high, and whether the wrap behind tore. A moisture meter is used anywhere the sheathing was exposed to rain. All of that goes into the written report for you and your insurer.
Typical storm damage requests
- Hail-cracked vinyl on storm-facing walls
- Siding blown off gables and corners
- Exposed sheathing after blow-offs
- Branches through siding and soffit
- Photos and reports for insurance

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?
Storm damage is often covered, though your specific policy and deductible determine it. Clear photos and a written report from your contractor strengthen the claim.
How do I know if hail damaged my vinyl siding?
Look for cracks, holes, or star-shaped fractures, especially on the walls facing the storm. Low-angle light makes them easier to spot. 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. If it cannot be matched, talk with your adjuster, since your policy governs how that is handled.
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.
