Storm damage
Storm, hurricane and hail damage in Houston
Houston gets storms from both directions: hurricanes and tropical storms from the Gulf, plus spring hail and wind. If you think a storm hurt your roof, we'll connect you with one vetted local roofer to take a look.
Signs your roof may be damaged
- Missing, creased or lifted shingles
- Dents in gutters, vents, downspouts or AC fins after hail
- Granules collecting in gutters or at downspouts
- Water stains on ceilings or in the attic
- Fallen limbs or debris on the roof
Right after a storm
Stay safe
Don't climb on a wet or damaged roof. Watch for downed power lines.
Document what you can
Take dated photos from the ground of any visible damage, inside and out.
Prevent more damage
If water is coming in, move valuables and place a bucket. A roofer can tarp the roof.
Questions about coverage?
Contact your insurance company directly. We don't give insurance advice.
Watch out for storm chasers
After big storms, out-of-town crews often go door to door. Texas law protects you. A roofer can't act as a public adjuster or negotiate your claim for you, and it is illegal for a contractor to waive or rebate your insurance deductible. For more, see the Texas Department of Insurance guide.
- Ask for a local address and proof of insurance
- Get a written contract before work begins
- Don't pay the full amount up front
- Be wary of anyone who says they can "cover your deductible"
