Surprise Hailstorm in Palm Beach County Causes Property Damage – What Homeowners Need to Know

Yesterday’s unexpected hailstorm in Palm Beach County left many residents stunned—and unfortunately, dealing with unexpected property damage. From cracked roof tiles and dented gutters to water intrusion and broken windows, the storm packed a serious punch that caught much of the area off guard.

At Water Cleanup of Florida, we’ve already started receiving calls from homeowners in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and Boynton Beach reporting damage from the sudden downpour and hail. While South Florida is no stranger to heavy rains, hail is rare—and many homes simply aren’t built to withstand it.

What to Look for After a Hailstorm

Even if the damage isn’t immediately visible, it’s important to inspect your property thoroughly:

  • Roof Damage: Hail can crack tiles or knock shingles loose, creating potential entry points for water.

  • Water Leaks: If you noticed ceiling spots, moisture around windows, or puddles, there may be hidden roof or structural damage.

  • Exterior Issues: Gutters, window screens, A/C units, and even stucco can be impacted.

If you suspect your property was affected, don’t wait. Hidden moisture can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and long-term structural issues—especially in South Florida’s humid climate.
