The answer
Use this answer to understand the issue quickly and feel more confident about the next step.
Right after a storm, most drivers want a simple starting point. Begin by looking over the vehicle and taking photos of the damage you can see. Hail often affects more of the vehicle than it first appears, especially across horizontal panels like the roof and hood.
From there, it helps to understand whether insurance will be involved and when estimate guidance should happen. That part can feel confusing if you are dealing with it alone, which is why early help is valuable.
