HAIL ALLEY
Hail Alley, which includes Texas, Nebraska, Wyoming, and of course Colorado, receives seven to nine hail days a year. According to a report by the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association, from mid-April to mid-August, the Front Range itself sees about three or four of these catastrophic hailstorms.
The hail is so destructive because, due to our altitude, it does not have time to melt before reaching the ground.
Some hail stones can travel 100 Mph!
INSURANCE STATISTICS
Per the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association insurers received 6,000 claims on homes and other properties alone totaling $46.5 million in 2018. This does not include claims on vehicles…
The average hail claim is between $3,000 – $8,000 but even light hail damage might not be enough even to meet your deductible, making it extremely important for homeowners to do all they can to lessen the potential for damage all together.
WHAT TO DO
WHAT TO DO TO PREPARE YOUR HOME FOR HAILSTORMS
1) Protect your home and its contents with Hippo Skylight Guards™!
2) Repair your roof. Broken or cracked shingles can allow leakage. Replacing the roof material with a hardier one is always the best protection. Some hail stones can travel 100mph!
3) Board up or cover windows that are at risk. One damaged window changes the pressure within the home. Making it easier for hail to damage others.
4) Prune trees that may cause damage to your home if the hail breaks off branches.
5) Make sure your home owners insurance has adequate coverage for external as well as internal hail damage.
6) Research other aspects of hail protection for landscape, cars, etc…
