Storm Damage Roof Repair in Pflugerville, TX

How to Spot a Storm Chaser (And Avoid Getting Scammed)

Pflugerville's Hail Alley location makes it a top target for out-of-state storm chasers. After every major hail event, they flood into Blackhawk, Falcon Pointe, and Highland Park neighborhoods. Here's how to protect yourself.

There's water coming in after the storm. How fast can you get to Pflugerville?

We offer 24/7 emergency response. For active leaks or major storm damage, we can typically have a crew at your Pflugerville home within hours to tarp your roof and stop the water intrusion. Blackhawk, Falcon Pointe, Highland Park, Pflugerville Heights—we cover all of Pflugerville. Call us immediately at (512) 640-2658.

Is Pflugerville really worse for hail than other parts of Austin?

Yes. Pflugerville sits squarely in what meteorologists call Hail Alley—the corridor running from San Marcos through Round Rock and north. Pflugerville sees more frequent hail events, and they tend to be larger. Golf ball-sized hail is a regular occurrence here; baseball-sized events happen. This is why storm damage claims are so common in Pflugerville and why having a roofer who understands Hail Alley conditions matters.

I've never filed an insurance claim before. Will you help me through it?

Absolutely. Many Pflugerville homeowners—especially first-time buyers in newer communities—haven't dealt with storm claims before. We handle the entire process: documenting damage with photos and reports, preparing all paperwork, meeting with your adjuster on-site, and helping you understand every step. You don't need prior experience. We've done this thousands of times.

Should I call my insurance company or call you first?

Call us first. We'll inspect your Pflugerville roof and document all damage before you file your claim. This ensures nothing gets missed in the initial report, which protects you throughout the claims process. Filing with incomplete information often results in a lower settlement—especially in Hail Alley where damage can be widespread but subtle.

My insurance adjuster's offer seems low. What can I do?

This is extremely common after Pflugerville hailstorms, especially when adjusters are handling hundreds of claims at once and rushing through inspections. Our detailed documentation—photos, measurements, and Xactimate-format estimates—gives you the evidence to dispute inadequate offers. We help you file a supplemental claim. Many Pflugerville homeowners get significantly higher settlements on the second review.

Storm chasers are knocking on my door. Should I use them?

We strongly recommend against it. Pflugerville is one of the top targets for storm chasers because of our Hail Alley location—they know insurance will pay. These out-of-state companies do quick, cheap work and disappear before problems surface. Verify licensing, check Google reviews going back years (not just weeks), confirm a local address, and never sign under pressure. We're happy to provide a no-cost second opinion.

How do I know if my roof actually has storm damage?

You usually can't tell from your driveway. Hail bruises shingles and fractures their internal structure without always leaving visible marks from ground level. Wind can break the seal bond on shingles without visibly lifting them. In Pflugerville, even moderate hailstorms cause damage that won't leak immediately but shortens your roof's life by years. A professional on-roof inspection is the only reliable way to know.

What if I can't afford my deductible right now?

We understand unexpected expenses are stressful. We offer financing options to help cover your deductible with manageable monthly payments. We also make sure you receive your full recoverable depreciation payment—money many Pflugerville homeowners don't realize they're entitled to. That payment can offset a significant portion of your out-of-pocket cost.

Will filing a storm damage claim raise my insurance rates?

Many Pflugerville homeowners worry about this, but in Texas, insurers generally cannot increase your premium specifically for weather-related claims. The damage exists whether you file or not. Leaving it unrepaired leads to accelerated deterioration, water intrusion, mold, and structural damage that costs far more than a deductible.

The hailstorm was a few weeks ago. Is it too late to file?

Probably not. Texas policies typically allow 1-2 years to file storm damage claims. However, waiting makes it harder to prove the storm caused the damage—especially in Pflugerville where storms are frequent and adjusters may attribute damage to a different event. Call us now for a free inspection so we can document everything while the evidence is clear.

How long does the whole process take from inspection to completed repairs?

Typical timeline: inspection within 24-48 hours, adjuster visit within 1-2 weeks, approval within 2-4 weeks, and repairs completed in 1-3 days after approval. After major Pflugerville hailstorms, timelines can stretch because adjusters are handling heavy claim volumes across all of Hail Alley. We keep you informed at every step and push for timely resolution.

My adjuster already came and I think they missed damage. What now?

This happens constantly in Pflugerville, especially after large storms when adjusters rush through 10+ inspections per day. Call us for a free inspection. If we find damage the adjuster missed—and we often do, particularly on hip roofs and multi-level homes common in Blackhawk and Falcon Pointe—we document it and help you file a supplemental claim.
