Roof inspection 1 — "The day after a hailstorm, I noticed water running down the side of the house and a small jet of water coming from the roof. One of my solar hot water panels had been hit. With a video of the damage, the issue was clearly visible eliminating the need for each repairer to climb up just to provide a quote."
