New Rochelle Premium Roofing provides professional hail damage roof assessment in New Rochelle, NY for residential and commercial properties across Westchester County. We assess hail here more often than we find it. Lower Westchester is not a hail market, and most calls after a loud storm turn out to be wind, limb strike or a flashing detail that was already at the end of its service life.
The test is physical, not rhetorical. Real hail leaves round bruises with granule loss and a soft mat underneath, and it leaves matching dents in soft metal on the same elevation. If the gutter aprons, the vent hoods, the drip edge and the downspouts are all clean, the shingles above them were not hit either, whatever a door-knocker told you last week. The evidence is either on the metal or it is not there at all.
Slate and clay tile fail differently again. Hail does not bruise slate, it fractures it, usually as a starred break through the exposure with a bright fresh edge where the stone has parted. Old fractures weather gray within a single season, so an aged break on a fifty-year-old slate is not a storm loss no matter how convincing the photograph looks from the driveway.
The honest answer is often no. That finding goes in writing, and we invoice the inspection instead of parking a replacement quote on the table, because a withdrawn or denied claim joins your loss history and every future underwriter reads it. A roof that is simply old is a budgeting problem, not an insurance one, and treating it as a claim rarely ends well. We would rather lose the job than the claim.
When damage is real we document it properly: test squares marked and photographed, soft-metal evidence on the same slopes as the covering damage, dated images of every elevation, and a scope written to what actually needs replacing. Matching is addressed directly, because a discontinued slate or a weathered clay tile cannot be blended from a big-box pallet and everybody involved knows it. Nothing goes in a scope we cannot defend on a re-inspection.
We are roofers, not public adjusters, and New York keeps those roles apart for good reason. We measure, document, scope and repair. If the claim needs negotiating, you or a licensed public adjuster do that, and we supply the evidence file rather than pretending to interpret the policy language for you. That division keeps everybody on the right side of the line and keeps your file clean.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — lead-coated copper step and pan flashing, twenty-ounce cold-rolled copper valley linings, slate rippers and copper bib repairs, stainless slate hooks set at the head lap, semi-weathering gray and unfading green roofing slate, terne-coated stainless bay-roof pans — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve New Rochelle and nearby communities including Larchmont, Mamaroneck, Pelham, Pelham Manor.

Materials, equipment and how we do hail damage roof assessment
The difference between hail damage roof assessment that lasts and hail damage roof assessment that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with lead-coated copper step and pan flashing, twenty-ounce cold-rolled copper valley linings, slate rippers and copper bib repairs, stainless slate hooks set at the head lap, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every New Rochelle job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of roofing work in Westchester County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
