Even a few hail dents can be expensive

The biggest question with hail damage is whether or not you have comprehensive insurance coverage. Typically you will NOT be covered for hail if you do not. In Alberta especially, many policy holders don’t have hail coverage and glass coverage because it’s so expensive.

Even a few small hail dents can be costly especially if you are paying out of pocket.

Insurance Claims for Hail Damage

If you do have hail coverage, whether you should file a claim depends on a few things. Take into consideration how much the cost of repair for hail damage is, how much your deductible is and how much your vehicle is worth. If it’s going to cost $3,500 for a paint job and dent repair and you have a $1,000 deductible, your company will only cover the remaining $2,500 then it may not be worth it.
