Hail Isn’t Just a Homeowner Problem—Why Business Owners Need to Be Storm-Ready Too

In Northern Colorado, hailstorms hit fast—and they don’t discriminate. While homeowners may face roof and siding damage, business owners have even more to lose: building damage, ruined signage, lost inventory, and operational downtime.

Here’s how to prepare your business for hail season:

✔️ Inspect Flat Roofs and HVAC Units

Flat roofs are especially vulnerable to hail. Have your roof and equipment checked and maintained before storm season.

✔️ Document Your Building & Equipment

Take high-resolution photos of your roof, interior, and outdoor signage. Store them in the cloud for quick access during claims.

✔️ Back Up Important Data

If a storm shuts down power or damages electronics, you’ll want your systems and data secured.

✔️ Review Business Interruption Insurance

Make sure you’re covered not just for physical damage but also for lost revenue during downtime.

✔️ Designate a Storm Response Contact

Have someone on staff responsible for inspections and follow-ups after a storm.

✔️ Schedule a Pre-Season Property Inspection

Working with a contractor before hail season can give you peace of mind and put you first in line for repairs if needed.

Hailstorms can’t be stopped—but their impact can be minimized. Protect your property, staff, and operations by planning ahead.
