Storm Damage
What the job involves.
Denton County sits in one of the busiest hail corridors in the United States. The storms that matter here are not the ones that rattle the windows; they are the ones that drop three quarters of an inch of ice at forty miles an hour onto a west-facing slope, and from the ground that roof looks exactly like it did the day before.
What hail actually does to an asphalt shingle is bruise it. The impact fractures the fiberglass mat under the surface and knocks the granules loose around the strike. The shingle does not leak that week. It leaks in two or three years, once the exposed asphalt has weathered through, and by then the claim window on that storm has usually closed.

The Difference
Why the details matter.
So the useful thing after a storm is a documented inspection, not a repair. We get on the roof, mark the test squares, photograph the strikes with a scale in frame, and check the soft metals: gutters, downspouts, vents, valley metal and the air conditioner fins all bruise before shingles do, and they are what makes a case that the hail was here.
If water is coming in, tarping comes first and it happens the same visit where we can. A tarp is not a repair, but it stops the damage spreading through the decking and into the ceiling while the rest of it gets sorted out.
From there it is a claim rather than a construction job for a while, and that is the part most homeowners have never done before. We meet your adjuster on the roof, walk the same slopes and show the same test squares, so that the two of you are looking at one set of facts. A claim is much more likely to be settled properly the first time when the person who found the damage is standing there when it gets measured.
Storm work is rarely just a roof. Wind takes fence sections and gutter runs, hail dents garage doors and window screens, and a roof that let water through leaves stained drywall behind it. We handle the exterior scope and the interior repairs that follow from it, so you are not chasing four trades and four schedules across one claim.

Storm Damage, answered.
What should I do right after a hailstorm?
Book an inspection while the evidence is fresh, and photograph anything obvious from the ground: dents on the gutter face, granules at the downspout outlet, split fence pickets. Hail damage is rarely visible from the ground, so the ground photographs support the claim rather than make it.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Texas policies generally give you a window measured in years from the date of loss, but it varies by carrier and by policy, and carriers get harder about proving which storm did it as time passes. The practical answer is to have it looked at in the weeks after the storm, not the year after.
My neighbors got new roofs and I was told mine was fine. Now what?
Get a second look. Adjusters work a lot of roofs in a short window after a big event, slope orientation changes how much damage a house takes, and two houses on one street genuinely can end up in different places. If we find damage a report missed, we will show you the photographs and go back with you.
Do you do emergency tarping?
Yes, and we treat it as the first call rather than a scheduled job. Call the office and say water is coming in, and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
Will filing a claim raise my premium?
That is between you and your carrier and we are not licensed to advise on it. What we can tell you is what the damage is, what it will cost to put right, and what it will cost if it waits. Plenty of people use that to decide not to file, and that is a legitimate answer.
Does hail damage ever fix itself?
No. A bruised shingle does not recover. It weathers through where the mat is fractured, which is why the leak shows up years later in a spot nobody associates with a storm.
