Hail Damage Roof Repair in Myrtle Beach, SC
Hail rarely punches a hole. It bruises the mat, strips the granules, and quietly takes years off a roof that still looks fine from the driveway.
The Damage You Can't See
Finding Hail Damage on a Horry County Roof
A hail-hit shingle usually keeps working for a season or two, then fails early. Catching it now is what protects the claim.
Hail damage is a measuring job, not an eyeball job. We chalk out ten-foot test squares on each slope, count the impacts inside them, and photograph what we find with a scale in frame. Then we check the soft metals — gutter aprons, vent caps, flashing — because those keep a dent record long after the shingles have weathered.
The reason it matters here is timing. A bruised shingle around Aynor or Conway doesn't leak this year. It sheds granules faster, cracks at the bruise in two or three summers, and by the time the ceiling stains, the claim window on that storm closed a long time ago.

Telltale Signs
What Hail Leaves on a Coastal Carolina Roof
If a cell came through your neighborhood, these are the marks worth checking for.
-
Dark Circles With Missing Grit
A knocked-clean spot exposing the black mat is the classic hail signature.
-
Soft Spots That Give Under Thumb
The mat underneath is bruised, so the shingle flexes where it shouldn't.
-
Dents in Gutters and Vent Caps
Soft metals record the storm even when the shingles hide it well.
-
Grit Piled at Downspout Outlets
A sudden pile of granules after a storm means the surface took a beating.
-
Splatter Marks on Painted Trim
Clean spots on chalky paint or oxidized siding show where stones landed.

Where Hail Actually Falls on the Grand Strand

Spring Thunderstorm Cells
Most local hail arrives inside fast-moving spring and early-summer storms.
Inland Hits Harder
Aynor, Loris, and Conway see more hail than the beachfront strip does.
Sun Hides the Evidence
Coastal UV weathers fresh bruises within a couple of seasons of the event.
Impact-Rated Shingles
Class 4 products resist bruising and sometimes earn an insurance discount.
