If you’ve lived through a summer in Colorado, you know the drill—bright sunshine one moment, dark skies and pounding hail the next. Hail season in Colorado isn’t just a possibility; it’s a yearly event that can leave homeowners scrambling to repair roofs, siding, and windows.
At Mountain Safe Exteriors, we understand how quickly a storm can turn into a headache. That’s why we believe in preparation—not panic. As local experts in siding and window replacement, we’re sharing what every homeowner should know (and do) before the next storm rolls through.
1. Inspect Your Home’s Exterior Now—Before the Clouds Gather
A quick visual inspection can go a long way. Look for:
- Cracks, warping, or soft spots in your siding
- Loose or missing shingles
- Drafts or foggy panes in your windows
- Debris or buildup in your gutters
If you spot something questionable, schedule a consultation early. Small issues become big problems fast in hail season.
2. Consider Impact-Resistant Materials That Last
Not all siding and windows are created equal. We recommend:
- Fiber cement siding by James Hardie, which holds up better than vinyl in severe weather and offers a beautiful finish
- Impact-resistant windows, which are specially engineered to withstand flying debris and high winds
Our team can walk you through durable, stylish options that are built for Colorado’s unpredictable conditions—and still elevate your home’s curb appeal.
3. Document Now, Save Later
Take photos of your home’s exterior now, before any storms hit. If you do experience damage later, having clear “before” photos can make insurance claims faster and smoother. We also recommend keeping copies of receipts for any upgrades or repairs you’ve recently completed.
4. Don’t Wait for the Rush
After a major hailstorm, contractors get booked fast. If your home hasn’t been recently inspected or upgraded, now’s the time to get ahead of the rush. We offer free consultations and honest assessments—no pressure, just practical advice from a local team that knows Colorado weather inside and out.
Protect Your Home and Your Peace of Mind
At Mountain Safe Exteriors, we’re more than installers—we’re homeowners too. We know the anxiety that can come with every roll of thunder, and we’re here to help you feel prepared, not panicked.
This summer, don’t wait for the damage. Let’s get ahead of it—together.
