Hambone Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 My company operates out a 15,000 sq ft brick colonial with shingled roof. We suffered some damage from Sandy and had an insurance claims guy out today to examine it. While up on our roof he advised us that the roof had suffered hail damage and that we could file a claim for that, but we need to come up with a date when the damage likely happened. Can anyone think of an event in the past few years that would have hit the town of Medway, MA with hail? Medway abuts MIlford, Franklin, Holliston and Millis. Thanks Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambone Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 The insurance guy didn't estimate on the age of the damage, but we've been told we need a new roof by our contractor. The building was built in 1997. What was the date of the micro burst that hit the area. I wonder if that had hail. I was at home in Mendon when it came through but it tore Medway up.
