When a storm hits, or unexpected damage occurs, filing a claim with your insurance company is often the first step towards getting repairs started.

Dealing with hail damage is stressful enough—but what happens if your insurance company denies your claim? Unfortunately, many homeowners face this frustrating scenario.

Many homeowners assume that if there are no missing shingles or obvious leaks, their roof is fine. However, hail can cause subtle damage that weakens shingles, reducing their lifespan and making them more prone to future leaks. A professional inspection is the only way to know for sure.

Many homeowners in DFW don’t realize that improper light installation can cause significant roofing issues. From shingle damage and gutter stress to hidden roof leaks and fire hazards, small mistakes can turn into costly repairs.

Overhanging branches may seem harmless, but they pose a serious risk to your roof—and your insurance coverage. If a tree limb crashes onto your home during a storm, your insurance company may deny your claim if they determine the damage could have been prevented. The good news? DFW Storm Restoration is here to help you protect your roof and your wallet. Follow this guide to prevent costly damage, avoid insurance disputes, and keep your home safe year-round.

Storm damage isn’t always obvious. Missing shingles, leaks, granule loss, or dented gutters are just some of the signs of trouble. But not all damage is visible from the ground. That’s where DFW Storm Restoration comes in. We offer a free, thorough roof inspection to assess the condition of your roof and determine if filing an insurance claim is necessary.

Many homeowners are tempted by offers from contractors who claim they can “waive” or “cover” the deductible. What they don’t realize is that skipping your deductible isn’t just unethical it’s illegal and can have serious consequences.

At DFW Storm Restoration, we provide drone images at every stage of your roofing installation, ensuring transparency and accountability. From pictures of the removal of your felt paper, the decking inspection, and even applying the storm guard to the valleys, you’ll see every step—giving you confidence in the quality of your roof.

At DFW Storm Restoration, we understand that strong communities start with supporting one another. Whether we’re rebuilding after a storm or lending a hand to those in need, we believe in serving beyond roofing. Our goal is to amplify the impact of local nonprofits by donating $500 per referral, helping them continue their vital work.

Detailed documentation is crucial for a successful roof insurance claim. As soon as it’s safe, use your phone or camera to capture clear, high-quality photos and videos of the damage. Include wide shots of the roof and close-ups of visible damage like missing shingles, dents from hail, leaks, or broken gutters.
