Joel Johnson was my rep and helped me navigate the process. They helped me overcome some hurdles with my insurance company. The communication was great and installation was efficient despite the challenges of living in the mountains. Overall was a good experience and glad I went with Joel and Roof Technologies.

2026 Storm Record

What the National Weather Service Recorded across the Salt Lake metro

Preliminary storm reports, listed as the NWS logged them. Sizes are the largest reported at each spot — often estimated from photos — and hail falls in narrow swaths, so damage can change from one street to the next.

After the Storm

How to Tell If Hail Damaged Your Salt Lake City Roof

Damaging hail doesn’t come often along the Wasatch Front, so most homeowners have never had to look for it — and hail damage rarely shows from the street. Start with what you can safely see from the ground, then let an inspector check the roof itself.

Signs to Look For

  • Fresh dents or dimples in gutters, downspouts, and roof vents
  • Dings in AC condenser fins, mailboxes, and grill lids
  • Chipped or split paint on fences, trim, and window frames
  • Torn window screens and cracked plastic skylight domes
  • Shingle granules, like coarse black sand, at the downspout outlets
  • New ceiling stains after the next rain or snowmelt

Seeing these doesn’t prove the roof is damaged, and not seeing them doesn’t mean it’s fine. Please don’t climb up yourself — our inspection is free and comes with a photo report either way.

What Hail Size Does to a Roof

SizeLooks likeWhat it typically damages
0.75″PennyWindow screens, paint, thin soft metals
1″QuarterGutters, vents, AC fins — asphalt shingle damage starts, especially on older roofs
1.25–1.5″Half-dollar to ping-pong ballBruised and cracked shingles, siding and skylight damage
1.75–2″Golf ball to hen eggFractured shingles, punctured vents, broken siding

Typical thresholds only — roof age, material, and how hard the wind drove the hail all change the outcome. That’s why the inspection checks every slope.

Both 2026 storms produced hail in the damaging range: up to golf-ball size in Taylorsville on June 25, and up to an estimated 2 inches near Layton on September 18. See the full 2026 storm record →

Claim Process

From Free Inspection to Final Invoice — and What Utah Law Says

Most Wasatch Front homeowners have never filed a hail claim. Here’s exactly how it works with us, and the Utah rules that protect you while it happens.

  1. Free inspection

    We check every slope, mark and photograph each hit, and look at gutters, vents, siding, screens, and your AC condenser.

  2. A written photo report

    You get the photos and our findings in writing before you decide anything. If the damage doesn’t justify a claim, we’ll tell you that too.

  3. You file; we meet the adjuster

    You open the claim with your insurer. We attend the adjuster’s inspection and walk them through what we documented.

  4. Scope and supplements

    We line our estimate up with the adjuster’s scope and document anything uncovered during tear-off, like damaged decking, for the insurer to review.

  5. Build and close-out

    Installed to Utah code and manufacturer spec, with the completion photos and invoices your insurer needs to release any withheld depreciation.

Utah Law Is on Your Side

  • No deductible deals. Utah Code 13-50-302 bars contractors from rebating or discounting away your deductible. Anyone offering to “cover it” is breaking the law.
  • A right to cancel after a denial. Utah Code 13-50-202 gives you five business days to cancel a storm-repair contract after you receive a written claim denial.
  • Read any assignment of benefits. Utah Code 13-50-301 requires one to itemize the work and price and to warn you, in capital letters, that you’re giving up certain rights under your policy.
  • Check the license. Look up any contractor on the Utah DOPL license lookup before you sign.

Roof Technologies isn’t a public adjuster — your claim stays between you and your insurance company. We document the damage, show it to the adjuster, and do the work.

Why a Local Office Matters

Big Storms Bring Out-of-State Crews. We Opened an Office Instead.

After a big hailstorm, trucks with out-of-state plates start knocking on doors. Some do fine work — but when the claims dry up they’re gone, and so is whoever was supposed to stand behind the warranty.

Roof Technologies opened a Salt Lake City office to serve the Wasatch Front. Salt Lake City homeowners get the same documented process we run through hail seasons in Colorado, Kansas, and Nebraska: a written scope before work starts, one project manager from inspection to final walkthrough, and manufacturer-certified installs.

  • A Salt Lake City office, not a pop-up storm crew
  • Free inspection with a written photo report
  • One project manager from first visit to final walkthrough
  • Class 4 impact-rated shingle options and wind-rated installs
  • Roof, gutters, siding, windows, paint, and AC fins on one scope

Local Climate & Storm Profile

Salt Lake City sat between both 2026 hail tracks — golf-ball hail in Taylorsville and ping-pong-ball hail in Holladay on June 25, and the September 18 storm that hammered Davis County to the north. Day to day, snow load, ice dams, and canyon wind are what a Salt Lake roof has to carry; the September 2020 windstorm toppled thousands of trees across the valley.

Salt Lake City Permitting & Code

Salt Lake City requires a building permit to re-roof, applied for through the city's Citizen Access Portal, and Building Services uses a re-roofing questionnaire to check roof loading and whether an engineer's review is needed. Utah enforces one statewide construction code, so we build to the same standard in every Wasatch Front city.

Utility & Solar Interconnection

Solar in Salt Lake City interconnects with Rocky Mountain Power under its Schedule 137 net-billing program: power you send back to the grid earns an export credit well below the retail rate (the rate resets each March 1), so we size Utah systems to cover what the house uses during the day rather than to export. We handle the interconnection application and the city permit.

Storm Context

Wasatch Front Storm Record

Hail is far less frequent along the Wasatch Front than on Colorado’s Front Range, which is exactly why 2026 caught so many roofs unprepared. On June 25, National Weather Service storm reports logged golf-ball-size hail in Taylorsville and ping-pong-ball-size hail in Holladay. On September 18, a severe line crossed Davis County with hail estimated up to 2 inches near Layton, 1.5-inch stones in Kaysville and Farmington, a brief tornado on the ridgeline east of Fruit Heights, and half-dollar hail near Mountain Green in Morgan County; later that afternoon, quarter-size hail fell in Taylorsville and West Jordan. Wind is the more familiar threat here: the September 8, 2020 downslope windstorm knocked out power to nearly 200,000 homes and businesses and toppled thousands of trees, with Davis County’s canyon-mouth communities among the hardest hit.

FAQ

Hail Damage Questions From Salt Lake City Homeowners

Utah Code 13-50-202 lets you cancel a storm-repair contract within five business days after you receive written notice that your insurer denied all or part of the claim, as long as the contractor knew insurance would be paying. Payments come back within 10 business days; the one exception is the reasonable value of work you told the contractor to start before the insurer decided. Utah requires that notice and a detachable cancellation form in the contract.
Some do, many don't — it depends on the carrier. Some national carriers that discount Class 4 roofs in Colorado and the Plains states don't offer it in Utah (State Farm's roofing discount, for example, isn't available here). Ask your agent before you choose a shingle; we'll provide the manufacturer's Class 4 certification either way. Even without a discount, a Class 4 shingle gives you better odds in the next storm.
Yes — once you file, we'll be at the adjuster's inspection to show every hit we documented. The claim itself stays between you and your insurer: Utah requires a public-adjuster license to negotiate a claim on someone's behalf, and we don't act as one. What we bring is a clear, photo-documented scope so nothing gets missed.
Yes. Hail-bruised shingles often don't leak right away — freeze-thaw cycles and snowmelt are what find the damage. Documenting it now, while the storm date is recent, also keeps the claim clean, and most policies require prompt notice of a loss. Don't wait for spring.

Day to day, snow load, ice dams, and canyon wind are what a Salt Lake roof has to carry; the September 2020 windstorm toppled thousands of trees across the valley. We install to the manufacturer's high-wind nailing pattern, run ice-and-water membrane at the eaves and valleys, and check attic ventilation — the details that keep a Utah roof tight through snow load and ice-dam season.
