June 2026 Hail: Arvada Took Back-to-Back Hits
Arvada was struck twice in one week. On June 1, 2026, golf-ball hail (1.75") swept the west metro corridor, and on June 8 spotters reported 1.5" hail near east Arvada as a second storm crossed Jefferson County. Two impacts in eight days means damage compounds — shingles bruised in the first storm often crack open in the second.
If your roof is 80002–80007, get it looked at even if it looks fine from the ground. Colorado insurers typically allow about one year from the storm date to file, and the clock started June 1. We provide free, photo-documented inspections you can hand straight to your adjuster — and if your roof is being replaced through insurance, ask us about upgrading to Class 4 impact-resistant shingles, which many carriers reward with a premium discount.
We’re licensed in Jefferson County, local to the Front Range, and we’re not a storm chaser — we’ll still be here when your warranty matters. See our Jefferson County roofing page or call 720-828-7997 / text 720-453-5095.

Hail Damage Arvada CO — Free Inspection & Insurance Claim Help
Arvada took a direct hit on June 8, 2026 from hail measuring 1.25-inch. Hail damage in Arvada, CO causes significant damage to asphalt shingles, gutters, siding, and windows — and most of it is invisible from the street. A roof that looks fine today can be actively losing years of lifespan from granule loss that only shows up under a trained eye. Josh Brooks Construction and Renovation Inc. has been inspecting hail-damaged roofs across Arvada and Jefferson County since 2014 and we’re available now for free post-storm assessments.
⏰ Arvada Hail Damage Insurance Deadline Warning
Most Colorado homeowner policies require you to file within 12 months of the storm date. The clock started June 8, 2026. Don’t wait for a visible leak — hidden granule loss and bruised shingles may qualify for full replacement now but get denied as “wear and tear” after the window closes.
Signs of Hail Damage on Arvada Roofs
1.25-inch hail causes immediate, measurable damage to most roofing materials. Here’s what we look for on every hail damage inspection in Arvada and Jefferson County:
- Granule loss — the protective coating on asphalt shingles is knocked loose, accelerating aging by 5–10 years per impact event
- Bruised or fractured shingles — visible as dark circular spots or soft spots when pressed; often invisible from the street
- Dented metal flashing, gutters, and downspouts — soft metal impact is the most reliable ground-level indicator of hail damage in Arvada
- Damaged ridge cap and hip shingles — these take the most direct impact and are often the first to fail
- Window screen and siding damage — if screens are hit, your siding and roof almost certainly were too

Arvada Hail Damage FAQ
My Arvada roof isn’t leaking — do I still have hail damage?
Yes. Most hail damage doesn’t cause immediate leaks. Granule loss and bruising shorten your roof’s lifespan significantly and qualify for insurance replacement — but only if you document and file within your policy window. A roof that isn’t leaking today can fail in 2–3 years from accelerated aging after a hail event.
Should I call my insurance company or a contractor first?
Call Josh Brooks Construction and Renovation Inc. first. The moment you call your insurer to report possible hail damage in Arvada, many carriers open a claim on your record — even if the adjuster later finds no damage. Get our professional assessment first so you know whether you actually have a claim worth filing.
How do I know if my Arvada home needs a full roof replacement or repairs?
If hail damage is found on a significant portion of your roof, full replacement is almost always what your Colorado homeowner’s policy covers. We’ll give you an honest assessment and only recommend what your roof actually needs.
How long does hail damage roof replacement take in Arvada?
Most residential hail damage roof replacements in Arvada take 1–2 days. We work with your insurer’s timeline so there’s no gap between insurance payout and installation.
What does hail damage roof replacement cost in Arvada, CO?
For most Arvada homeowners with hail damage, your out-of-pocket cost is your deductible only.

Class 4 impact-resistant shingles may also qualify you for a 20–30% insurance premium reduction going forward.
