Roofing and Claims

Repair or replace?
If the failure is a detail, repair it. A cracked pipe boot, lifted ridge or failed wall flashing is a detail. When the shingle mat has gone brittle across the whole roof, a patch breaks the shingles next to it and you have bought the next leak.
How long does a replacement take?
Most DFW shingle roofs are one to two days of tear-off and install once material is on site. Tile, slate and standing seam run longer. Permitting and material lead time usually take more calendar than the crew does.
What drives the price?
Squares, pitch, layers to remove, decking condition once exposed, material, and the details: valleys, chimneys, skylights and penetrations. Two houses the same size can differ by thousands.
Should I file a hail claim?
Get it inspected first. A denied claim still sits on your claim history. An inspection tells you whether the claim is supportable before you open one.
Can you cover my deductible?
No. Texas Business and Commerce Code 27.02 makes it a crime for a contractor to pay, waive or rebate a deductible, and it makes you a participant. Walk away from anyone who offers.
My roof is nearly new. Can it have hail damage?
Yes. Impact energy does not care how old the shingle is. What changes with age is whether the shingle bruises or splits.
Do you pull permits?
Where the city requires one, yes, and it goes in the scope. A contractor who suggests skipping it is telling you how they handle what you cannot see.
Why does my ceiling still look wrong after the roof is fixed?
Because stopping the leak and repairing the damage are two jobs. Wet insulation holds moisture, drywall swells, and texture and paint will not blend without feathering across the plane. That is the remodeling side of our scope.
