Does hail always mean I need a new roof?

No. Some roofs show minor or repairable damage. Others show enough impact to justify replacement. The useful inspection is the one that tells you the difference honestly, not the one that always says "you need a new roof."

What is RCV vs. ACV and why should I care?

It changes how much money you are actually working with. Replacement cost value and actual cash value are not the same thing, and depreciation or policy limits can leave you covering a much bigger gap than expected.

Who pays for detach-and-reset when solar is already on the roof?

Sometimes insurance contributes, sometimes it does not, and sometimes it depends on how the plan is written. That is why this needs to be nailed down before the reroof starts, not argued about halfway through.

What if the roof claim is approved but my solar panels are also damaged?

That should be caught before reinstall. A good detach-and-reset plan documents system condition during removal so damaged panels, wiring, or mounts do not become a surprise after the roof is done.

Hail & Wind Damage Roof Inspection

Texas hail damage help: what to do about your roof, your insurance claim, and your solar panels before the project gets expensive and confusing.

We can help you determine if your roof shows real damage, whether the insurance estimate covers everything, and how to handle detach-and-reset.

Main concern — Roof damage + claims
Also covers — Solar detach + reset
Best next step — Inspection + documentation

If your home or business has hail damage to it's roof, we can help.

After hail or high winds, damage shows up in places you can't see from the ground -- cracked shingles, dented flashing, stripped granules. We inspect the full roof, document everything with photos and measurements, and give you a clear answer: file a claim, monitor it, or do nothing. If you need to file, we handle the insurance side too.

We help you sort out two things before any work starts: what your roof needs and what the insurance covers. When those line up, the project goes smoother and costs less.

What Hail Actually Does to a Texas Roof

Hailstorms roll through Texas every year. If your home was in the path, the damage might not be obvious from the ground — but ignoring it gets expensive fast.

Roof leaks that start small and get worse — Hail cracks and punctures let water in. What starts as a small ceiling stain turns into warped decking, ruined insulation, and a repair bill that doubles every month you wait.
Mold you won't see until it's a problem — That moisture has to go somewhere. It feeds mold behind walls and under insulation — the kind you don't notice until you smell it or someone in the house starts getting sick.
Missing or cracked tiles that leave the house exposed — Hail knocks tiles loose or shatters them outright. Every gap is an open door for rain, pests, and heat loss. The longer it sits, the more damage spreads underneath.

What happens after you call

We inspect the roof — A short phone call first, then a free inspection. We check the overall condition, look for hail and wind damage, and find what is causing any leaks.
You get a written estimate — We show you what we found and what it costs to fix. If the damage is a claim, we walk you through filing it and meet the adjuster on the roof.
We repair or replace it — We install it right the first time, then clean the yard. Nails, wrappers, and old shingles leave with us.

Hail Storm Map Look Up

Check recent storm activity for your property and compare it to what the roof inspection actually finds. The map supports the conversation. It does not replace boots on the roof.
