Hail!

Severe hailstorm in the Denver area last night. I am full-timing at Prospect RV Park in Wheat Ridge... and my trailer was damaged.

- all front cap segments have light to moderate dents
- roof has light dents
- streetside upper side panel has light dents
- about 4 rear cap segments have light to moderate dents
- rear roof vent/skylight shattered, hail then damaged the internal parts of the vent
- air conditioner cover is broken
- sewer hose was perforated in many places

This morning I bought a new vent cover. It's the wrong kind but will keep the rain out for now. I also bought a new sewer hose. The trailer is usable, as the remaining damage is cosmetic. Very sad because the trailer is only 6 years old and has been kept inside most of its life.

Insurance is through Allstate. They will cover it under comprehensive, with a $500 deductable. They want me to get a repair estimate and have it faxed to them. The only Airstream dealer in the area is Windish. Does anyone have experience with them performing skin replacements? Will I need to bring it to Jackson Center? Long distance is a problem, as I am living in the trailer while working a new job in Denver.

Advice is appreciated!
