On October 5, 2010 the greater Phoenix area was hit by a severe hail storm which impacted thousands of homes and commercial buildings throughout the Valley of the Sun.  Many property owners are still unaware or may not understand the extent of the costly hail damage and have not had their property evaluated yet. 

Peak One Builders & Restoration will inspect your property for free and can assist you with the insurance claims process in the event that your property has incurred hail damage. 

Look for Signs of Storm Damage Around Your Property or Neighborhood.

1.  ROOFS:  Look for obvious signs of torn, curled or blown-off shingles, dented vents, dented gutters, etc.  Don’t climb on the roof.  Leave that to a professional.

2.  WINDOWS:  Cracks in the windows and skylights, or visible damage around the window panes?  Are there any tears in your window or porch screens?

3.  HVAC:  Check your air conditioning unit for damage – dents or dimples to the exterior casing, fins, etc.

4.  Inspect AWNINGS, CARPORTS, FENCES, GUTTERS, DECKS, and PATIOS for scuff marks or dents.  Also inspect the STUCCO for any scuff marks, cracks, chips, or dents.

5.  WATER INTRUSION:  Look for water stains on the ceiling, particularly in corners, around light fixtures, and around the chimney.  Also check the attic for water seepage or wet insulation.  It is important to detect and repair any sources of water intrusion as early as possible to prevent potential mold growth.

6.  Look around the neighborhood.  Do you see, or do you recall seeing suddenly more contractors in your neighborhood than usual?  Have you noticed a number of roofers posting advertising signs around your neighborhood?
