Storm Data for Restoration & Exterior Contractors

StormAuditor shows siding, gutter, window, fence, and full-service restoration contractors where hail and wind hit, when, and how hard — neighborhood by neighborhood and address by address.

Wind damage is not just a roofing job

Siding panels, gutters, fences, screens, and windows take the brunt of strong gusts. The wind map shows each day's estimated peak gusts across your state, and a Weather Report shows the dates and estimated gusts at a specific property — the dates your crew needs when a homeowner calls about a fence line or a torn gutter run.

Hail on siding, screens, and soft metals

Smaller hail that leaves a roof intact can still mark vinyl siding, aluminum trim, window screens, and AC fins. The hail map shows radar-estimated hail from 0.50 in. up for each storm date, and the hail size guide lists the damage possible at each hail size — marble through softball — for siding, windows, fences, and soft metals.

Exterior-trade questions

Can I see which storms hit a customer's house?

Yes. The Weather Report lists every qualifying storm date at the address in the last two years with the estimated peak wind gust and estimated maximum hail size. A single report is $2.99 with no subscription.

What wind speeds matter for siding and fences?

It depends on material, age, and installation. NWS severe criteria start at 58 mph, and the wind speed guide lists the damage possible in each gust range for roofs, windows and doors, fences, trees, vehicles, and outbuildings. A Weather Report shows the estimated gusts at a specific address by date.

Does hail too small for roof damage show up?

Yes. The hail map shows radar-estimated hail from 0.50 in. up, the Weather Report lists dates with estimated hail from 0.50 in., and the hail size guide covers siding and soft metals.
