How big does hail need to be to damage a roof?

How long after a hailstorm can homeowners file a claim?
It depends on the policy and the state, but most homeowner policies allow one to two years from the storm date — some as little as six months. That's why the storms on this page are still live opportunities: the roofer who documents the damage first usually writes the job.
