As reported by the National Weather Service, large hail and severe winds brushed through the Northern Chicago suburbs on the late evening of April 5th, 2010 and the early morning hours of April 6th, 2010.
Hail forms when strong currents of rising air, known as updrafts, carry water droplets high enough in a thunderstorm for the water droplets to freeze. Once hailstones grow large enough to begin falling, despite the updraft that’s been holding them up, they hurtle toward the ground as fast as 90 mph.
Hail can damage your property in many ways. Hail damage to asphalt shingles can cause soft spots or bruising that may or may not be visible to the naked eye. Even small hail with high velocity crosswinds will produce dents large enough to cause significant damage to aluminum siding. Even small dents are considered cosmetic damage by your insurance carrier and in most cases are covered under your property insurance policy. Hail causes similar damages to your aluminum guttering system also. As insurance restoration specialists, we are highly trained and educated on siting hail and wind damage. If you live in the Northwestern Chicago suburbs, it is likely that your home or property has sustained damage. Ameristar Exteriors offers FREE INSPECTIONS with NO-OBLIGATIONS.
It is important to remember that your insurance company is liable for the damages your property has sustained from the recent storms. Please note that you may have a limited claim period, some policies only have 6 months to a year to file a claim. Contact us today so we can help you!
