Hail Damage Repair For North Ridgeville Homes
A hail bruise is a spot where the impact cracked the shingle mat underneath the granules. From the ground it is invisible. In a year or two the granules shed, the asphalt is exposed to sun, and the shingle fails early. That is why North Ridgeville homeowners often find out about hail damage after the claim window has closed.
