What Our Storm Damage Repair Includes
Every storm repair starts with a full inspection and documentation package, then moves into the actual repair work. Here is what is covered on a standard job, and what we quote separately if your roof needs it.
Full Damage Inspection
A HAAG Certified inspector walks every slope and checks flashing, ridge vents, pipe boots, and valleys. We run a moisture meter and infrared camera inside to find water that has already traveled past the ceiling line.
Insurance Documentation
You get slope-by-slope photos, measurements, and a line-item scope built for a Texas storm damage roof insurance claim. If the first offer misses decking or flashing, we re-document the disputed areas with the adjuster.
Shingle and Flashing Repair
We replace missing and wind-lifted shingles, reset or replace flashing, and reseal penetrations with new sealant and boots. Materials match the existing profile wherever the shingle line is still available.
Decking and Underlayment
Soft or delaminated sheathing gets cut out and replaced, then new underlayment goes down before shingles. We match the underlayment spec to your jurisdiction so the repair passes a re-roof inspection.
Final Water Test
Before we close out, we water-test the repaired areas and check the ceiling line inside. If anything weeps, we open it back up and fix it on the spot, not on a callback.
What Storm Damage Roof Repair in Texas Covers
Storm Damage Roof Repair in Texas is the emergency and permanent restoration of a roof after hail, wind, or water has compromised it. That covers tarp-overs on open decking, replacing missing shingles and torn ridge caps, resetting flashing around chimneys and vents, and sealing penetrations where a roofing nail or pipe boot has failed. We use a moisture meter and an infrared camera to find water that has already traveled into the deck and insulation, because a leak you can see is rarely the only one you have.
Texas storm damage roof repair gets busy after every spring hail core and every Gulf hurricane feeder band. In the 2026 season alone, we ran tarp crews through Hutto, Forney, and Katy within 24 hours of the same squall line. If you are searching for storm damage roof repair services in Texas near me after a storm, the first thing we do is document the damage before anything gets moved, patched, or hauled off.
How Our Storm Repair Process Runs
Five steps from the first call to the final walk. You always know what is happening on your roof and what happens next.
01
Schedule
Call or book online — a real human picks up and confirms a 2-hour arrival window.
02
Diagnose
Licensed tech inspects on-site, then walks you through the cause and your options.
03
Fix
The job is completed to code and done right the first time — no shortcuts, no surprises.
04
Guarantee
Every job backed by a written workmanship warranty — and we stand behind it.
Tools and Methods We Use
Tools & Equipment
Moisture meter
Reads water content in decking and insulation so we find hidden intrusion instead of guessing from a ceiling stain.
Infrared camera
Maps wet zones across the ceiling line and attic, showing where water has traveled beyond the visible leak.
Roofing nail gun
Sets fasteners at the correct depth and pattern for the shingle spec, which keeps wind-uplift ratings intact.
Pry bar and shingle cutter
Lifts and trims damaged shingles cleanly so the repair blends into the existing field without tearing good material.
Chalk line
Keeps replacement courses straight and aligned with the existing shingle lines so the repair is not visible from the street.
Safety harness and roofing ladder
OSHA-compliant fall protection and stable roof access on steep Texas pitches and two-story homes.
Tarp
Secures open decking after a storm and keeps water out until the permanent repair is scheduled and materials are on site.
Methods & Standards
HAAG Certified inspection
Every storm claim starts with a HAAG Certified inspector documenting damage slope by slope. The report is written the way an adjuster reads it, with photos and measurements tied to specific areas of the roof.
Moisture mapping
We combine a moisture meter with an infrared camera to map wet decking and insulation. That tells us whether a repair is enough or whether sheathing needs to come out before new underlayment goes down.
Code-correct flashing and fastening
Repairs are built to current wind-uplift and flashing code, not the code the roof was originally built under. We match underlayment, membrane, and fastener patterns so the work passes a re-roof inspection.
Water testing
Before we close out any repair, we water-test the area and check the ceiling line inside. If it weeps, we open it back up and fix it on the spot rather than scheduling a callback.
When to Call for Storm Roof Repair
01
A hail core moved through your neighborhood and you found shingle granules in the gutters and dents on the vents.
What we do: We inspect every slope for bruising and impact marks, measure the damage, and document it for your claim. If the damage is concentrated on a few slopes, we repair those and leave the rest documented.
→ You get a provable damage report and a repair that restores the roof without paying for slopes that were not hit.
02
A hurricane feeder band tore shingles off over the living room and rain is coming through the ceiling.
What we do: We tarp the breach within 24 hours, then trace the water with a moisture meter to find every entry point, not just the obvious one. Repair follows once the roof is dry and the claim is documented.
→ Water stops spreading, your ceiling and insulation are protected, and the permanent repair matches the rest of the roof.
03
You bought a house after a storm season and the inspection flagged lifted flashing and a soft spot near the valley.
What we do: We open the soft area, replace any delaminated sheathing, reset the flashing, and reseal the valley. Then we water-test and give you photos of what was actually under the shingles.
→ You know exactly what condition the roof is in and what was repaired, which matters at resale and at the next renewal.
04
A commercial flat roof is ponding after a storm and the seams are pulling apart.
What we do: We inspect the membrane, drains, and flashing, repair the torn seams, and verify drainage so water does not sit on the repair. TPO and EPDM repairs are matched to the existing system.
→ The ponding is corrected, the seams hold, and the roof is ready for the next round of weather.
How Storm Repair Runs Across Texas
Texas storm damage roof repair is a different job depending on where you live. Gulf Coast homes from Bay City to Webster take hurricane feeder bands and salt air that corrode flashing and fasteners, so we spec corrosion-resistant materials and check every penetration. North and Central Texas gets the hail cores, which means impact bruising on shingles and vents that does not always leak right away. We work to current wind-uplift code and Texas Department of Insurance documentation expectations, and we stage crews out of Houston, Dallas, Austin, and San Antonio so a squall line that hits Killeen and Waco the same night gets two crews. If you need emergency storm damage roof repair in Texas after a hurricane, we run tarp crews around the clock until every open roof is covered.
Neighborhoods We Serve
-
Katy
New-build subdivisions here have steep, complex rooflines that catch wind and hail on multiple slopes, so inspections take longer and documentation has to cover each plane.
-
Webster
Bay-adjacent homes see salt-air corrosion on flashing and fasteners, so repairs here get corrosion-resistant materials and extra attention at penetrations.
-
Georgetown
North-facing slopes here take the worst of the hail and stay shaded longer, which slows drying and makes hidden moisture more likely after a storm.
-
Forney
Fast-growing east Dallas subdivisions mean a lot of newer roofs hit by the same hail core, so we often run multiple crews through the area in one week.
Local Conditions We Plan For
-
Spring hail cores across North and Central Texas
Hail bruising fractures shingle mat and dents vents and flashing. Damage often does not leak immediately, so we document it before it turns into a ceiling repair.
-
Gulf hurricane feeder bands
Wind-driven rain and torn shingles hit the coast first. We stage tarp crews near the bay so open roofs get covered the same night, not the next week.
-
Summer heat and UV exposure
Heat ages shingles and sealant fast, so repairs made in summer get materials rated for high UV and fresh sealant at every penetration.
-
Freeze events and ice dams
Winter freezes can back water under shingles at the eaves. We check ice-and-water membrane coverage and repair any gap we find while we are on the roof.

Storm Problems We Fix Before They Spread
Storm damage rarely stays where it starts. Water travels, decking softens, and a small breach becomes a ceiling repair and a mold job. Here is what we see most and how we stop it.
Problem
Missing shingles after a wind event
Exposed underlayment and decking take on water with the next rain, and the leak shows up as a ceiling stain far from the missing shingles.
Our Fix
We tarp the open area the same day, then replace the missing shingles and check the surrounding field for lifted tabs. Fasteners get matched to the existing pattern so the repair does not create a new wind catch.
Problem
Hail bruising that has not leaked yet
Fractured shingle mat and exposed asphalt shorten roof life by years, and the damage is often invisible from the ground until granules start collecting in gutters.
Our Fix
A HAAG Certified inspection measures impact density per slope and photographs the bruising. We repair the worst slopes and document the rest so your claim reflects the full damage, not just the leaks.
Problem
Flashing failure around chimneys and vents
Storm-driven rain gets behind lifted or torn flashing and runs down the chimney chase or vent pipe into the attic and wall cavities.
Our Fix
We reset or replace the flashing, install new boots on pipe penetrations, and seal with fresh roofing sealant. Then we water-test the area and check the attic side before closing it up.
Problem
Water already inside the deck and insulation
Wet decking softens and delaminates, insulation loses R-value, and mold can start within days in a Texas attic.
Our Fix
A moisture meter and infrared camera map the wet zones. We cut out soft sheathing, replace it, and install new underlayment before shingles go back on, so the repair is structural, not cosmetic.
Why Texas Homeowners Call Us First
Storm damage does not wait for a convenient week. Our crews are set up to move fast, document properly, and leave a roof that passes inspection the first time.
-
Tarp-Over in 24 Hours
We roll a tarp crew to open decking within 24 hours of your call in most Texas metros. That stops the water, protects your ceilings, and buys time for the insurance adjuster to walk the roof before anything is disturbed.
-
HAAG Certified Inspections
Our inspectors are HAAG Certified, which means the damage report we hand you is written the way an adjuster reads it. Hail bruising, granule loss, and mat fracture get measured and photographed per slope, not summarized in a paragraph.
-
Insurance Claim Support
We help you file a Texas storm damage roof insurance claim with slope-by-slope photos, a moisture map, and a line-item scope. If the first offer misses decking or flashing, we meet the adjuster on the roof and re-document the disputed areas.
-
Warrantied Materials
We install GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed systems with matching underlayment and ridge vents, so the manufacturer warranty stays intact. Workmanship is warrantied separately, and we register the material warranty for you before we leave.
What Storm Roof Repair Costs
Typical 2026 pricing for storm damage roof repair in Texas runs $450 to $2,800 for a localized repair, $350 to $900 for a tarp-over, and $9,500 to $24,000 for a full replacement depending on size and pitch. If the damage is covered, your out-of-pocket is the deductible. We give you the inspection findings and the numbers before anyone climbs back on your roof, and we tell you when a repair is the better call than a replacement.
Typical Investment Range
$450 - $2,800 for localized repairs; $9,500 - $24,000 for full replacement
You are paying for documentation that protects your claim, materials that keep the manufacturer warranty intact, and a repair that passes inspection the first time. A cheap patch that leaks next season costs more than doing it right once.
What changes the price
01
Roof size and pitch
A larger, steeper roof takes more labor, more material, and more safety setup. A two-story home with a complex roofline costs more to repair than a simple ranch, even for the same damage.
02
Extent of damage
A handful of missing shingles is a one-day repair. Bruising across multiple slopes usually means replacement, and wet decking adds tear-out and sheathing cost on top.
03
Decking condition
Soft or delaminated sheathing has to be cut out and replaced before new underlayment goes down. The more decking we replace, the higher the material and labor cost.
04
Material match
If your shingle profile is still in production, a repair blends in and costs less. Discontinued shingles may require replacing a larger area so the roof looks consistent.
05
Access and staging
Tight lots, steep driveways, and landscaping that needs protection add setup time. We include dumpster placement and protection in the quote so there are no surprises.
06
Emergency timing
After a major storm, tarp-overs and emergency calls carry a higher rate because crews are working around the clock. Scheduling the permanent repair after the rush usually costs less.

Storm Damage Roof Repair Questions, Answered
Real answers to the questions we hear most often from local homeowners and property managers.
How much does storm damage roof repair cost in Texas?
Most localized storm damage roof repair in Texas runs $450 to $2,800 in 2026, and a full replacement typically lands between $9,500 and $24,000 depending on size and pitch. Tarp-overs usually cost $350 to $900. If the damage is covered, your out-of-pocket is the deductible, and we document the claim so the scope matches the actual damage.
Does insurance cover storm damage roof repair in Texas?
Yes, most Texas homeowner policies cover sudden storm damage, including hail bruising, wind-lifted shingles, and water intrusion that follows. Wear-and-tear and neglect are excluded. We photograph every slope, measure the damage, and hand you a claim packet built to the Texas Department of Insurance documentation standard so your adjuster has what they need.
How to file a storm damage roof claim in Texas?
Call your insurer, open the claim, and get the adjuster scheduled, then let us handle the roof-side documentation. We inspect first, photograph and measure the damage, and provide a line-item scope. When the adjuster walks the roof, we meet them there and re-document anything the first pass missed, which is common on steep slopes and around flashing.
What qualifies as storm damage on a roof in Texas?
Hail bruising that fractures the shingle mat, granule loss exposing the asphalt, wind-lifted or missing shingles, torn ridge caps, bent or lifted flashing, and impact marks on vents and pipe boots all qualify. So does water staining on the deck and insulation found with a moisture meter. We measure and photograph each one so the damage is provable, not just visible.
Other Roofing Services We Handle
Roof Installation
When storm damage is widespread enough that patching no longer makes sense, a full installation with new underlayment and ridge vents is the better spend. We install GAF, Owens Corning, and CertainTeed systems built for Texas wind and hail exposure.
View Roof InstallationRoof Replacement
A roof with hail bruising on every slope usually gets replaced, not repaired. We tear off to the deck, replace damaged sheathing, and install a new system with a registered material warranty and a written workmanship warranty.
