Black Hawk sits in a valley between the Black Hills National Forest to the west and a set of smaller hills to the east. That geography creates a natural wind tunnel that funnels severe weather directly through the community. When thunderstorms build over the Black Hills and roll east toward the plains, Black Hawk is directly in the path.
The population has grown significantly with new subdivisions going up every year. Many of these newer homes were built with standard shingles and basic siding that isn’t engineered for the hail that rolls through here every summer. Older homes from the mid-1980s are hitting the 35 to 40 year mark where original roofing materials are reaching end of life.
Whether your Black Hawk home is brand new or has been here for decades, the hail risk is the same. The difference is whether your roof was installed by a crew that understands Black Hills weather or by a contractor who treated this like any other suburban build.

Had the pleasure of working with Dylan as our contractor. We were using a different company but the claim got denied by the insurance adjuster. I explained the story to Dylan and he promised he would make it work out. So I switched to Star and Dylan was able to make it happen! Super kind, very responsive and made everything stress free. I threw a few curve balls at him but he never wavered. Very trustworthy company, they are not out there to scam your insurance. Very honest in what you need and what you can get.Posted on Will DistlerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Dylan at Star Exterior. Always got back to me when I had a question and stopped by whenever I needed him to. He made the job run smoothly.

Many Black Hawk homes built in the 1980s are at or past that threshold. We inspect for both storm damage and end-of-life deterioration during your Free 21-Point Inspection.
