The hail is a scare tactic. Same thing here in Chicago where we did have hail in the spring, but they came around last year with the same story with no hail. Roofers and siding companies. They say "why wouldn't you want to get new siding and/or roof paid for by your insurance? Problem is, it's still a claim and a ding against you as a homeowner. The first time I had someone come to the door I went outside with him and he pointed out a few spots which were really nothing, but then I couldn't get rid of him and he was so pushy, to the point of almost sticking his foot in the door, that I almost called the police. If you think you have hail damage, do your own investigating starting with your own ins co as to who to call. Never go with someone who comes to your door. There were several in our neighborhood here who got new roofs over all this but did they really need it?
