You can still request a roofing review if you have questions, disagree with visible findings, or need help understanding the scope and repair options.
Can hail damage show up later?
Some issues become more visible over time as granules loosen, bruised areas age, or water begins entering weakened spots. That is why post-storm review is useful.
