A hailstorm passed. Inspect before you assume damage.
Hail can create real roof damage—but a storm near your home is not proof of a covered loss. Start with evidence, understand the inspection purpose, and separate damage assessment from a sales pitch.
Plan My Roof Inspection →Don’t start with “Do I need a new roof?” Start with “What happened?”
The homeowner needs a documented condition assessment before turning a hail event into a repair contract or claim strategy. HAVRYO can structure the evidence and route the homeowner to the right inspection need.
Build the storm record
Record the date, location and observable impacts. Preserve photos and relevant communications.
Assess roof condition
Ask what will be inspected, what documentation will be delivered and whether the professional can explain observed damage versus normal wear.
Check the insurance layer
Review deductible, valuation basis and relevant policy terms before assuming that filing a claim is automatically the best next action.
Repair, replace—or monitor
Use evidence and insurer requirements to define the actual next step instead of jumping from storm to full replacement.
After a storm, urgency can be real. Pressure is not proof.
Colorado's Attorney General warns homeowners about uninvited roof inspections, high-pressure sales tactics and rushing into contracts. Its consumer guidance recommends getting multiple bids before significant home repair or roof work and checking contractor licensing requirements with local government.
That fits HAVRYO's commercial model: generate a qualified homeowner request rather than reward unsolicited storm-chasing.
Be cautious with uninvited inspections
State consumer guidance specifically warns against allowing an uninvited contractor to inspect the home or roof.
Colorado roofing contracts have required disclosures
State guidance says residential roofing contracts must contain specified information, including approximate service dates/costs and insurance-related rescission information.
Check contractor requirements locally
The Attorney General directs consumers to DORA and local government to determine whether a contractor is properly licensed.

Turn “I think hail hit my roof” into a defined professional request.
This is a strong roofing lead point because HAVRYO can pass the contractor a homeowner with event date, location, visible signs, insurance context and a clear inspection objective.
Plan My Roof Inspection →Date, city/ZIP and basic roof/property context.
Photos and observed exterior impacts, collected safely.
Condition assessment, suspected hail damage, repair scope or insurer-requested documentation.
Route the defined request to professionals serving the jurisdiction.
Use findings to evaluate repair, claim, replacement or monitoring.
A storm creates a question. The inspection should create evidence.
Document first, inspect deliberately, then make the insurance and repair decision from facts.
