Can Hy-Grade Steel Roofs Withstand Hail Damage?

A Hy-Grade Steel Roof is engineered to withstand all facets of Ontario’s harsh weather conditions. Our roofing system is very strong and durable. It’s made with 26-gauge, G-90 galvanized Canadian-made steel and coated with 4 mils thick PVC coating that’s elastic enough to expand and contract with the steel. Our system is tested to withstand sustained winds of up to 120 km/h. That’s hurricane-level winds! It will not crack, chip, peel or lift when struck by hail or heavy winds.

In Ontario, we have yet to experience a hail storm that punctured the system. There have been reported dints after storms, but it is rare. In the western provinces of Canada, hail storms with much larger hail have been experienced. Their metal roofs stood up well and those that use similar materials to ours seen no punctures.
