Project Capsule: A hail storm damaged the asphalt shingle roof on a home set on a wooded acreage in Elizabeth. CRC ran a test square to prove the density of hail hits, documented the claim, then tore the roof off and installed a new architectural asphalt shingle system on the large, cut-up roof.
Project Facts
| Location | Elizabeth, Colorado (acreage property) |
| CRC office | Denver Office (Front Range) |
| Property | A two-story single-family home on a wooded lot |
| Cause of loss | Colorado hail storm |
| Scope | Full tear-off, new synthetic underlayment, and a new architectural asphalt shingle roof on an approved insurance claim |
The Challenge
Elizabeth sits in one of the Front Range's more hail-prone stretches, and this home's large, multi-facet roof had taken a beating. The trouble with hail on asphalt shingles is that a homeowner rarely sees it from the yard, so proving the damage takes getting on the roof and looking closely.

CRC documented the damage the way insurance adjusters do it: by chalking out a ten-by-ten-foot test square on the old roof and circling each hail impact inside it, then counting the hits to show the storm damage was widespread, not cosmetic. Close up, the hail had knocked granules off the shingle surface and bruised the mat beneath, the kind of impact that shortens a roof's life and eventually leaks. With the damage proven across multiple slopes, CRC presented the claim to the homeowner's carrier.

The Solution
Once the claim was approved, CRC tore the entire roof off down to the deck, dried it in with a new synthetic underlayment, and installed a new architectural asphalt shingle system. On a roof this large and cut up, with dormers, valleys, and multiple penetrations, the details matter: every valley, vent, and flashing was reset and sealed as the new shingles went down.

The Result
The home went from a hail-bruised, granule-stripped roof to a fresh architectural shingle system sized for the Front Range's weather, all handled on one approved insurance claim. Because CRC proved the damage, managed the claim, and did the work, the homeowner had one accountable contractor from the first test square to the finished roof.

Why CRC for a Hail Insurance Claim
A hail-damaged roof is easy to under-scope if no one proves the damage. CRC documents it the way an adjuster does, presents the complete claim, and then reroofs it right. Our Denver office serves the Front Range, and our residential team installs architectural asphalt shingle roofs and handles storm and hail insurance claims across Colorado.
