Default Re: I have seen the future of residential home inspection...

I have inspected several roofs on homes in rural areas, and have found dozens of gunshot holes in roofs. These can be mistaken for hail damage. FYI.

How can gunshot damage look like hail damage? People will use a ball peen hammer to try to fool insurance companies, but I can't image how damage from a bullet and hail would look similar. Hail doesn't typically make holes.
