BLOOMINGTON, Minn., September 17, 2026 — Twin Cities Contracting Services Inc., a Bloomington-based roofing contractor serving homeowners throughout the Twin Cities metro, is encouraging property owners to take a closer look at their roofs following a summer marked by hail, high winds and severe thunderstorms.
The company has published an in-depth report, Twin Cities Hail Damage Puts Bloomington Roofs Back in the Spotlight, explaining why storm-related roof damage is not always visible from the ground and what homeowners can do to identify potential problems before they develop into leaks or more extensive property damage.
The report comes after severe weather affected communities throughout the Twin Cities during the summer of 2026. Hail caught the attention of residents across the metro during storms on June 19, while additional severe weather continued to affect the region later in the season. The company’s report notes that Bloomington experienced another significant storm on August 7, bringing hail and strong wind gusts capable of putting additional stress on residential roofing systems.
For homeowners, the main concern is not simply whether hail fell in their neighborhood. It is whether the roofing system sustained damage that may be difficult to identify without a closer inspection.
Hail Damage May Not Be Obvious from the Ground
A roof can appear normal from a driveway or sidewalk even after being affected by hail.
Depending on the age and condition of the roofing system, hail can loosen protective granules, bruise shingles, damage flashing, weaken shingle seals or create small fractures that are difficult to see without inspecting the roof surface closely.
Some of these problems may not immediately result in a leak.
Instead, moisture intrusion can begin later as damaged materials are exposed to additional rain, temperature changes, wind, snow and Minnesota’s repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
That is one reason Twin Cities Contracting Services Inc. is encouraging Bloomington homeowners who experienced significant hail or wind to consider a professional roof assessment.
Homeowners can learn more about the company’s roof inspection services in Bloomington, MN, including inspections intended to help determine the condition of residential roofing following severe weather.
An inspection does not automatically mean a roof needs to be replaced. In some cases, the roofing system may still be functioning properly. In others, an inspection may identify isolated damage that can be addressed before it develops into a larger problem.
More widespread damage, particularly on an older roofing system, may require a different approach.
Documentation Can Be Important After a Severe Storm
Twin Cities Contracting Services Inc. also recommends that homeowners document property conditions following significant weather events.
Photographs of visible damage to gutters, siding, vents, windows and other exterior surfaces can provide a useful record of what happened. Homeowners can also record the date of the storm and retain previous roofing inspection reports, repair invoices, installation documents and photographs.
Keeping those records can become particularly useful in Minnesota, where a roof may encounter multiple hailstorms, wind events and winter weather conditions during its lifespan.
When several storms occur over time, documentation can help establish a clearer history of the roofing system’s condition.
Homeowners should also understand that a roofing contractor’s inspection and an insurance company’s coverage determination serve different purposes.
A roofing contractor can document physical conditions and explain what roofing work may be appropriate based on what is found. Insurance coverage, deductibles, filing requirements and claim decisions are determined by the homeowner’s individual policy and insurance carrier.
Twin Cities Contracting Services Inc. encourages property owners to review their policies and communicate directly with their insurer or licensed insurance professional regarding coverage questions.
Independent News Coverage Highlights the Bloomington Roofing Issue
The subject has also received additional coverage in the article Twin Cities Hail Damage Is Putting Bloomington Roofs Back in the Spotlight.
The news report examines why professional roof inspections can be valuable following severe weather, particularly when damage cannot be identified from the ground.
It also stresses an important distinction for homeowners: neither assuming that nothing happened nor assuming that every hailstorm automatically requires a roof replacement is an ideal response.
Instead, homeowners can use a professional inspection to gather information and make decisions based on the actual condition of the roofing system.
The report also highlights the value of working with an established local roofing company after storms, particularly when severe weather results in an increase in contractor solicitation throughout affected neighborhoods.
Homeowners are encouraged to verify a contractor’s local presence, understand the proposed scope of work, review material and warranty information, and avoid high-pressure promises related to insurance outcomes.
Bloomington Homeowners Face Minnesota’s Year-Round Weather Cycle
Summer hail is only one part of the challenge residential roofs face in Minnesota.
After a roof encounters hail or high winds during the summer, it must still withstand autumn rain, falling debris, freezing temperatures, snow, ice and repeated temperature fluctuations throughout the winter.
Small weaknesses created during a summer storm can become more significant as water enters damaged areas and freezes.
For that reason, the period following a hailstorm can be an important time for homeowners to determine whether their roof is prepared for the seasons ahead.
Property owners can safely look for warning signs without climbing onto the roof themselves. Unusual granule accumulation around downspouts, damaged gutters, dents on metal vents, water stains inside the home, displaced shingles and new attic moisture can all justify further evaluation.
Because walking on a roof creates fall hazards and can potentially damage roofing materials further, rooftop inspection is better left to trained professionals with appropriate safety equipment.
Serving Bloomington and the Twin Cities Since 1964
Twin Cities Contracting Services Inc. has served Bloomington and communities throughout the greater Twin Cities metro since 1964.
The company provides residential roofing services that include roof inspections, roof installation and roof replacement. Its Bloomington office works with homeowners who need to evaluate roofs following severe weather as well as those planning roofing projects because of age or other existing conditions.
For homeowners affected by the recent hailstorms, the company’s message is straightforward: do not assume a roof is undamaged simply because there is no visible leak.
A timely inspection can establish the current condition of the roof, create useful documentation and help the homeowner understand whether further action is necessary.
“Hail damage can stay hidden, so roof inspections help Bloomington homeowners act confidently.”
Homeowners who experienced hail, high winds or other severe weather during the 2026 storm season can review the company’s complete Twin Cities hail damage report for additional information about warning signs, inspections, documentation and preparing a home for the next Minnesota storm.
