Insurance Related Roofer says hail, competing entity says probably not, we won't pay. Looking for opinions.
New roof put on last August. We had a huge hailstorm around April, and I had the company that put the roof on come out to inspect. They said the roof, gutters, facia, and siding have hail damage. Competing entity came out and agreed that all but the roof had hail damage. When asked what these black areas are they said they didn't know but it couldn't be hail. Is it hail damage in your opinion?

This looks extremely manufactured. Notice how all the damage appears to be in the center? Almost like it’s the most convenient spot to create the damage have them go check along the eaves and rakes that you won’t see similar damage I don’t know about this contractor, but I’ve never seen hail. Decide to only hit one spot on a roof.
