Hail Happens: A Texan’s Guide to Protecting Your Roof After a Storm

Introduction: When the Sky Turns Against Your Roof

Hail damage isn’t always obvious. At Renown Roofing and Construction, our HAAG-certified inspectors regularly uncover damage that homeowners didn’t even realize was there, such as:

1. Bruised or Cracked Shingles – Tiny fractures that let in water.
   
   
2. Dents in Metal Components – Damaged flashing and gutters that redirect water into your home.
   
   
3. Compromised Sealant – Loosened adhesive makes shingles vulnerable to wind.
   
   
4. Weakened Roof Deck – Subtle damage that shortens your roof’s lifespan.
   
   
5. Accelerated Aging – Even minor hail hits reduce roof performance over time.
   
   

Homeowners who call Renown Roofing and Construction immediately after a storm avoid these issues from turning into larger, costlier repairs.



After a storm, resist the urge to climb up and check things yourself. Wet shingles and hidden damage can make roofs unsafe. Renown Roofing and Construction advises homeowners to:

• Stay indoors until conditions are safe.
  
  
• Take photos from the ground of your home, yard, and vehicles.
  
  
• Contact Renown Roofing for a professional inspection instead of risking injury.



Hail often leaves behind hidden scars that only experts can identify. That’s why Renown Roofing and Construction provides:



• Free Roof System Inspections – A full evaluation of shingles, flashing, gutters, and more.
  
  
• Infrared Leak Detection – Advanced imaging uncovers trapped moisture invisible to the eye.
  
  
• Comprehensive Documentation – Clear photos and reports to support your insurance claim.
  
  

By calling Renown Roofing first, you’ll know exactly what insurers should cover—and what repairs are essential to protect your home.

Dealing with insurance can be overwhelming, but Renown Roofing and Construction removes the stress. Our licensed adjusters often secure 30–40% higher payouts for clients compared to homeowners who file on their own. We handle:

• Meeting with your insurance adjuster on-site.
  
  
• Explaining the scope of damage in detail.
  
  
• Ensuring fair, honest settlements without hidden costs.
  
  

When you work with Renown Roofing, you’re not just getting a contractor—you’re gaining an experienced partner who knows how to navigate insurance for your benefit.
