After Hail or High Wind

Hail and wind do damage you often can't see from the ground: bruised and cracked shingles, lifted tabs, dented vents, split siding and fence lines pushed out of plumb. We get up on the roof, walk every wall and fence line, photograph each problem and put it all in a written list of the damage and the repairs it needs.

That list is yours to keep, whether you pay for the repairs yourself or file an insurance claim. If you file, we can meet your adjuster at the house to walk the damage and explain the repairs. The claim itself stays between you and your insurance company.

  • Photos of every problem. Each slope, wall and fence line, before you decide anything.
  • A written repair list. Every repair listed, so you and your adjuster are looking at the same thing.
  • A detailed price in writing. Sent after the site walk, before any work starts.

What We Repair After a Storm

We repair the outside of the house: the roof, the walls and the fence.

  • Hail-Damaged Shingles

    Bruised, cracked or split shingles found up close, then repaired or replaced to match the rest of the roof.

  • Wind-Lifted and Missing Shingles

    Shingles torn off or lifted by the wind, replaced and sealed down before the next rain.

  • Flashing, Vents & Seals

    Dented vents, torn pipe seals and loose flashing replaced, so water stays out where the roof meets a wall or opening.

  • Metal and Tile Roofs

    Dented metal panels and cracked or broken tiles repaired or replaced.

  • Roof Decking

    Wood under the shingles that's broken or soaked, photographed during tear-off and replaced before the new roof goes on.

  • Siding

    Cracked, split or punctured fiber cement, vinyl and wood siding replaced and matched to the rest of the wall.

  • Stucco

    Impact damage and storm cracks repaired and textured to blend in.

  • Trim, Soffit & Fascia

    Roofline and window trim torn loose or split by the wind, repaired or replaced.

  • Fences

    Pickets, rails and posts knocked down or broken, repaired or rebuilt.

What to Do Right After the Storm

These steps come from the Texas Department of Insurance's advice after hail and windstorms.

  • Take photos and video of the damage, inside and out.
  • Cover broken windows and holes to keep rain out. Your policy may pay for temporary repairs, so keep a record of them.
  • Save every receipt, including for temporary repairs.
  • Keep damaged items until your insurance company says you can throw them away.
  • If you're filing a claim, file as soon as you can.
  • Be there for the adjuster's visit, so you can show all the damage.

Working Alongside Your Insurance Adjuster

Texas law draws a clear line between the contractor and the claim. Here's who handles what.

What Stays With You

Texas doesn't allow a contractor to act as a public adjuster on a home it's repairing, so the claim stays between you and your insurance company.

  • Filing the claim
  • Talking through coverage with your insurer
  • Agreeing on the settlement
  • Paying your deductible

What We Handle

We document the damage, write up the repairs and build them. Every photo and repair list we put together is yours to share.

  • Photos of every damaged area
  • A written list of the repairs
  • Meeting your adjuster at the house, if you'd like
  • Repairs built to what your insurance approved

How Storm Repairs Work

From the first call to the final walkthrough, here's what happens and who does what.

  1. Call or Text Us

    Call or text (281) 516-8515 and tell us what the storm hit. Photos help if you have them.

  2. Inspection and Photos

    We look at the roof up close, walk every wall and fence line, and photograph each problem we find.

  3. A Written Repair List and Price

    You get a written list of the damage and the repairs it needs, plus a detailed price. If you file a claim, share it with your adjuster.

  4. The Adjuster's Visit

    If you'd like, we meet the adjuster at the house to walk the damage and explain the repairs. Coverage decisions stay between you and your insurer.

  5. Repairs

    Once you approve the work, we pull any permits and order materials matched to your home. If we find hidden damage, we photograph it and show you before going further.

  6. Final Walkthrough

    We walk the finished work with you, haul off the debris and sweep the yard for nails.

Texas Rules for Storm Repairs

A few state rules shape every storm job. We follow them on every project, and they're worth knowing before you hire anyone.

  • Your Deductible

    Texas law requires you to pay your insurance deductible. A contractor can't pay, waive or rebate it, or knock it off the price. Be cautious of anyone who offers to.

  • The Deductible Notice

    A contract of $1,000 or more that will be paid from an insurance claim has to include a notice, in bold type, that you're required to pay your deductible. Ours does.

  • Public Adjusting

    Texas doesn't let a contractor act as a public adjuster on a home it's repairing, or advertise that it will. We can share our estimate and technical details with your adjuster, but we don't negotiate your claim or speak for you on coverage.

  • Windstorm Certificates

    Along the coast, including Galveston, Brazoria and Chambers counties and parts of Harris County east of State Highway 146, roof replacements and major repairs need a state windstorm inspection. Most homes need that certificate to be insured through TWIA. Roof repairs under 100 square feet that don't touch the decking, and fence repairs, don't need one.

  • City Permits

    Many cities require a permit to replace a roof, and some for siding or a new fence. We check what your address needs before work starts. Our service area pages cover the local rules.

  • Paying for the Work

    Don't pay in full before work starts, and never sign a contract with blank spaces. The Texas Department of Insurance recommends both, and they're good rules with any contractor.

You get photos and a written repair list before you decide. The estimate is free.

Storm Damage Questions, Answered

Do you work with insurance claims?

Yes, as the contractor. We document the damage with photos, write up a list of the repairs and, if you'd like, meet your adjuster at the house to walk it. You file the claim and work with your insurance company on coverage and the settlement. Once it's settled, we build to what was approved and walk you through it before work starts.

Can you negotiate my claim or talk to my insurer for me?

No. Texas law doesn't allow a contractor to act as a public adjuster on a home it's repairing. We can share our estimate and technical details with your adjuster, but we don't negotiate settlements or speak for you on coverage. If you want someone to represent you on the claim, the Texas Department of Insurance licenses public adjusters.

Can you pay or waive my deductible?

No. Texas law requires you to pay your deductible and doesn't allow a contractor to pay, waive or rebate it. If paying it all at once is hard, ask about financing. Texas law counts a signed financing agreement that pays the deductible in full over time as proof of payment.

Should I call you or my insurance company first?

Either order works. The Texas Department of Insurance advises filing a claim as soon as you can. You can also have us inspect first, so you know what damage is there when you call.

Do I need a windstorm inspection for my repair?

If your home is in a coastal county such as Galveston, Brazoria or Chambers, or in the part of Harris County east of State Highway 146, a roof replacement or major repair usually needs one, and most homes need the certificate to be insured through TWIA. Roof repairs under 100 square feet that don't involve the decking, and fence repairs, don't. We confirm what your address needs before work starts.

What if you find more damage once work starts?

We stop, photograph it and show you before going further. If your insurance is paying for the repairs, you can send those photos to your adjuster.

Do you handle water or fire damage?

No. We don't do water extraction, drying or fire and smoke restoration. If water got inside, call a water damage restoration company first. We repair the outside of the house: roofs, siding, stucco, trim and fences.

Are storm repairs covered by your warranty?

Yes. Storm repairs carry the same written warranty as the rest of our work, including 2 years on workmanship and materials. See our warranty page for the details.
