Why most storm damage goes unnoticed
Hail damage on asphalt shingles usually shows up as small dark spots where granules were knocked off, or soft bruises you can only feel by hand. From the driveway, a hail-damaged roof often looks fine, and under Kingwood's trees you may not even see most of the roof. The clues are on softer things around your home: gutters, vents, AC fins, screens and the limbs lying in the yard.
What to do after hail, wind or a fallen limb
- Stay safe. Avoid downed lines, don't climb on the roof and keep clear of hanging limbs.
- Document. Photograph dents, debris and any interior water spots, with dates.
- Prevent more damage. If water is coming in, call us for an emergency tarp.
- Get an inspection. A free roof inspection confirms whether there's damage worth claiming.
- Then decide on a claim. See our roof insurance claim guide.
Watch out for storm chasers
After big storms, out-of-town crews knock on doors across Kingwood. Be careful with anyone who offers to "cover your deductible" (illegal in Texas), pushes you to sign that day, or can't give you a local number. Read how to choose Kingwood roofers, check the storm desk for recent alerts, or call (512) 297-7580.
