After a hail storm, your roofing contractor can meet the insurance adjuster and negotiate a whole new roof. If you have a common type of shingle and/or your shingle is still made then you can pocket the check for the whole roof and pay the roofing contractor to fix only the damaged shingles. Often, there are only a few hail hits that did any damage so replacing the whole roof isn't usually necessary.
Also, if you get money for slightly dinged gutters keep the money. Modern gutters don't rust and dings are usually hard to see unless your on the roof or your really looking hard. Times are tough keep the money.
Figuring out whether to repair or replace your roofing can be confusing. Use this guide to determine if you need to repair or replace it.

This is really interesting information! I didn't know that your contractor can negotiate with your insurance adjuster! My rood had some missing shingles and damage after a storm and I'll have to look into this!

I never knew that your roof could get damaged because of hail! That would be some scary hail in order for it do damage. How big does the hail get where you live? http://www.classicremodeling-nj.com
