Hail Damage Roof Repair in Texas
How to Spot, Repair, and Prevent Costly Roof Issues
Texas weather is known for many things—scorching heat, powerful storms, and especially hail. If you own property in the Lone Star State, you know that Texas is one of the most hail-prone states. At Frontier Services Group, we’ve seen it all, from minor shingle bruising to full-scale roof replacements after a spring hailstorm.
In this post, we’ll guide you through how to spot hail damage, what to do about it, and how to prevent future issues, whether you're a homeowner or a commercial property manager.
How Hail Damages Roofs: A Breakdown by Material
Different roofing materials respond differently to hail. Here’s what to watch for:
Asphalt Shingles
This common roofing material is particularly vulnerable to hail. Here’s what to look for:
- Missing granules that expose the asphalt layer
- Cracks or bruises on shingles that may lead to leaks
- Dark spots or areas with inconsistent texture
Metal Roofs
While more durable, metal roofs aren’t invincible. Hail can:
- Leave dents that compromise the waterproof seal
- Loosen fasteners and seams
- Cause paint damage that leads to rust over time
Whether your roof is made of shingles, metal, or another material, ignoring hail damage can lead to costly structural issues down the road.
Regional Hail Risks in Texas
Texas is a vast state with varying hail profiles depending on location:
- Dallas/Fort Worth: This region is no stranger to large hailstones (golf ball-sized and up). These storms often cause severe damage, especially to aging roofs.
- Houston/San Antonio: While the hail here may be smaller on average, frequent storm activity means your roof takes a constant beating, accelerating normal wear and tear.
If you live or work in these areas, routine roof inspections after major storms are a must.
How to Spot Hail Damage on Shingles (and Beyond)
Sometimes hail damage is obvious, like broken shingles or visible dents. But often, it’s hidden.
Signs to look for include:
- Water spots on ceilings or in attics
- Granules in your gutters or downspouts
- Soft spots or sagging areas on the roof
- Unexplained drafts or moisture indoors
Still not sure? At Frontier Services Group, we use thermal imaging and professional inspection tools to detect what you can’t see. If you suspect damage, don’t wait. Even small issues can turn into major repairs.
When to Call a Professional
Not all roof damage is visible from the ground—and climbing on your roof after a storm isn’t safe.
Call Frontier Services Group if:
- You’ve experienced a hailstorm in your area
- You’re filing a roof damage insurance claim
- You notice leaks or moisture inside your property
We’ll provide a detailed inspection, assist with documentation, and even work with your insurance company to ensure you get the coverage you deserve.
