Why Colorado Springs Roofs Take So Much Hail
Storms build over Pikes Peak and the Palmer Divide and push east across the city, dropping hail on neighborhoods from Briargate to Fountain. Hail in El Paso County is a seasonal certainty, not a rare event, and insurers rate Colorado Springs roofs closely on age, material, and impact resistance.
A Hail Belt Location
Colorado Springs sits where mountain storms and plains moisture meet, which makes severe hail a regular summer event across El Paso County.
June Is Peak Hail Season
June produces the most severe hail reports in El Paso County, with August producing about half as many. Severe hail hit the area again on June 23, 2026.
Costly Storm History
The June 13, 2018 storm triggered an estimated $352.8 million in home and vehicle claims, according to the Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association.
Strong Wind Exposure
Storm winds can lift and crease shingles and break their seal strips, opening the roof to water even where hail did little damage.
Wildfire Rules on the West Side
Homes in the city's wildland urban interface have required a Class A fire-rated roof since 2003, and the state Wildfire Resiliency Code began applying in designated areas in 2026.
Hidden Damage
Bruised shingles and cracked mats often look fine from the driveway. A professional inspection finds damage before it turns into a leak or a denied claim.

Dings on the air conditioner, cracked siding, torn window screens, or dented cars and mailboxes after a storm.New Water Spots

The 5 Step Plan
What to Do After a Hailstorm in Colorado Springs
Following these steps in order protects both the roof and the insurance claim.

Insurers ask for the date of loss, and most policies set a deadline for reporting a claim.
Photograph From the Ground
Photograph hailstones next to a coin or ruler, plus any dented gutters, vents, and siding.
Schedule a Free Inspection
An inspection confirms whether there is real damage before a claim goes on record with the insurer.
File and Meet the Adjuster
If the damage supports a claim, file it and have the contractor present when the adjuster inspects the roof.
Review the Contract
Colorado law requires a written contract, allows cancellation within 72 hours of an insurance denial, and bars roofers from paying or waiving the deductible.
