We document the damage; your carrier decides coverage. Our work is backed by a 10-year workmanship warranty.

Signs of Hail Damage on a DFW Roof

Stay off the roof. Wet or damaged shingles are slippery, and hail bruises are often invisible from the yard anyway. From the ground, look for:

  • Shingle granules collecting in gutters or at the bottom of downspouts
  • Dents in gutters, roof vents, turbine caps, or the fins of your AC unit
  • Missing, lifted, or creased shingles
  • Dark, bruised-looking spots where granules have been knocked loose
  • New water stains on ceilings or walls inside the home

What to Do After a Hailstorm (First 72 Hours)

These steps follow the Texas Department of Insurance's guidance on hail and windstorm damage and recovering after a storm.

  1. Stay safe. Keep off the roof and away from downed lines.
  2. Take photos and video of the damage, inside and outside, and don't throw damaged items away until your insurer says you can.
  3. Report the damage to your insurer as soon as you can. You don't need to wait for a roofer first.
  4. Make only temporary repairs to prevent more damage, such as emergency tarping over an active leak, and keep every receipt.
  5. Don't make permanent repairs before the insurance adjuster has seen the damage.
  6. Book a documented inspection before you sign anything with a contractor.

Who Should Inspect Your Roof After Hail?

Choose a local, established roofing contractor with a real street address, one who gives you dated photos and a written scope before you sign anything. Be wary of anyone who offers to waive or cover your deductible (that's illegal in Texas) or who says they'll "handle your claim." Frame Restoration has worked from its Frisco office since 2016 and offers free hail inspections across Dallas–Fort Worth. For more warning signs, read our DFW storm chaser red flags guide, or see how a storm damage roof inspection works in Dallas.

Our Hail & Storm Inspection Process

Every inspection is free and comes with documentation you keep:

  • Labeled roof planes, so every photo can be tied to a specific slope
  • Slope-by-slope photos of impacts, granule loss, and lifted or missing shingles
  • Checks of soft metals: gutters, vents, flashing, and AC fins
  • Test squares where appropriate
  • Attic and interior checks for leak paths
  • A written roofing scope you can share with your carrier

Documentation for Your Insurance Carrier (What We Do and Don't Do)

Frame documents the damage with photos and prepares a written roofing scope for your carrier to review. We can meet your carrier's adjuster on site when you request it. Coverage decisions stay between you and your insurer. We document; your carrier decides.

Texas law (Insurance Code §4102.163) doesn't allow a roofer that does or may do the work to act as an adjuster on your claim, so we don't. Your insurer may also ask for proof that you paid your deductible. The Texas Department of Insurance roof guide suggests asking your agent whether you have replacement cost or actual cash value coverage, and whether your wind and hail deductible is different from your other deductibles. It also notes that insurers won't pay for a new roof just because it's old or worn. Learn more on our insurance roof documentation page and in the Texas hail damage claim guide.

Repair or Replace After Hail?

Not every hailstorm means a new roof. The answer depends on:

  • How widespread the impacts are. A few damaged shingles on one slope can often be repaired.
  • The roof's age and condition before the storm.
  • The decking. Soft or damaged decking changes the scope.
  • Matching. If your shingle line is discontinued, a clean repair may not be possible.

We'll tell you honestly when a repair makes sense. A free inspection shows which applies to your roof.

Hail Damage FAQs

Where do I start for storm damage roof repair in Texas?

Start on this page if the roof is in Dallas-Fort Worth. Storm damage roof repair in Texas, for this company, means a free inspection from the Frisco office at 7601 Main St, slope-by-slope photos, and a written roofing scope your carrier can review. Then open the city page for the house, including Keller for hail damage roof restoration, Allen for roof repair, and Plano or Arlington for roof replacement. Stay off the roof while you wait.

Who should inspect my roof after a hailstorm in DFW?

A local, established roofing contractor who gives you dated photos and a written scope before you sign anything. Frame Restoration, based in Frisco since 2016, offers free hail inspections across Dallas–Fort Worth. Avoid anyone who offers to waive your deductible. Texas law prohibits it.

How do I know if hail damaged my roof?

From the ground, look for shingle granules in gutters or downspouts, dents in gutters, vents, or AC fins, missing or lifted shingles, and new ceiling stains. Hail bruises often can't be seen from the yard, so have a roofer inspect it and stay off the roof yourself.

Should I call my insurance company or a roofer first?

You can do both, but don't wait on a roofer to report damage. The Texas Department of Insurance advises filing a claim as soon as you can. A roofing inspection gives you documentation, and your carrier decides coverage.

Can a roofer handle my insurance claim in Texas?

No. Texas law (Insurance Code §4102.163) bars a contractor that does or may do the work from acting as an adjuster on your claim. Frame documents the damage with photos and a written roofing scope, and can meet your carrier's adjuster on site when you ask.

Is it legal for a roofer to pay my deductible?

No. In Texas, it's illegal for a contractor to offer to waive, rebate, or absorb your deductible, and your insurer can ask for proof that you paid it, according to the Texas Department of Insurance.

Should I repair or replace my roof after hail?

It depends on how widespread the impacts are, the roof's age, the condition of the decking, and whether matching shingles are still made. Isolated damage can often be repaired. A free inspection tells you which applies to your roof.

What should I do in the first 72 hours after hail?

Stay safe, photograph damage from the ground, report it to your insurer, and cover any active leak with a temporary tarp. Keep receipts, and don't make permanent repairs before the adjuster sees the damage, as the Texas Department of Insurance advises.

Does my insurance cover hail damage?

It depends on your policy and the carrier's review. The Texas Department of Insurance says that if you have wind and hail coverage, your insurer should pay for hail damage, subject to your deductible. Ask your agent whether you have replacement cost or actual cash value coverage.

How can I spot a storm chaser?

Watch for door-knockers who show up right after a storm, out-of-area plates, pressure to sign the same day, offers to cover your deductible, or promises to "handle your claim." Choose a roofer with a local address and a written scope.
