Our work in Houston

Hail damage to a Houston roof is rarely obvious from the street. The bruising shows up in the granule layer, the mat beneath it, and the soft spots your adjuster will probe with a ball-peen hammer during the inspection. If you file your claim before a contractor documents that damage with photos and measurements, you are walking into that meeting without evidence. PPB Roofs and Restoration offers a free, photo-documented roof inspection with a written report delivered within 24 to 48 hours. We've helped Houston homeowners recover full replacement value when their first inclination was to assume the damage wasn't bad enough to claim. If qualifying hail or wind damage is confirmed, we guarantee to help get your home insurance cost down. Call (832) 384-4420 before you call your carrier.

We're a fully insured, Latinx-owned roofing contractor based in Fort Bend County, serving Houston and Harris County with the same crew that handles Richmond, Sugar Land, and Katy. After Hurricane Beryl and every major hail event this region takes, out-of-state contractors flood the area. We don't disappear after the job closes. Every replacement comes with a 10 to 25 year warranty, and we're available Monday through Saturday if a second storm rolls through before the paperwork is done. Houston homeowners have up to one year to file most storm-related insurance claims in Texas. Don't let that window close on a roof that actually qualifies.

Know the Signs

What Hail Actually Does to a Houston Roof

Most functional hail damage in Houston isn't visible from the ground. Here's what we look for on the surface.

Granule Loss

Hail knocks granules off the shingle surface and exposes the asphalt mat underneath. Once exposed, UV degradation accelerates fast in Houston's heat.

Soft Bruising

Below the surface, hail impact creates a soft spot in the mat. An adjuster will find it. We find it first, photograph it, and include it in the report.

Dented Vents and Flashing

Metal components are the fastest tell. Dented pipe boots, ridge caps, and flashing confirm a qualifying hail event, which supports the full scope of the claim.

Lifted or Creased Shingles

High-wind events common in Harris County can crease shingles along the tab line or lift the edges. Both create water infiltration points that compound over time.

Interior Ceiling Stains

If you're seeing brown rings on drywall after a storm, water has already moved past the decking. That's active damage and it needs a same-day inspection call.

Why Filing Without Documentation Costs Houston Homeowners

Insurance carriers pay for functional storm damage, not wear and tear. That distinction is everything. A claim filed without a professional inspection report gives your adjuster room to attribute every imperfection to age and normal weathering. We've seen well-documented claims recover full replacement value on roofs that looked borderline. We've also seen undocumented claims denied on roofs with clear hail hits. The difference is evidence. Before you call your carrier, read our Texas roof insurance guide to understand exactly what your carrier will be looking for. Then call us for the inspection. We verify damage, document everything with measurements and photographs, and only recommend filing when it makes strategic sense. If the roof doesn't qualify, we'll tell you directly. Filing a claim that doesn't hold up can trigger premium increases or, in some cases, policy non-renewal. That's not a risk worth taking.

Our Process

How We Handle a Houston Storm Damage Claim From Inspection to Installation

  1. Storm Inspection and Report

    We inspect the full exterior and interior, photograph every damage point, record measurements, and deliver a written report within 24 to 48 hours. That report is what you hand your adjuster.

  2. On-Site Adjuster Meeting

    We meet your carrier's adjuster on the roof. We walk the damage together, answer technical questions, and make sure every affected area gets properly evaluated. Most adjusters appreciate the documentation we bring.

  3. Scope Review and Supplement Filing

    If the approved scope misses items or code upgrades required by Houston standards, we submit detailed documentation to your carrier for approval. We don't start the install until the scope is accurate.

What Happens After the Claim Is Approved

  1. Material Selection

    We bring shingle samples to your home, explain the performance differences between options, and recommend what actually fits your roof and Houston's climate. We suggested the lower-cost option to a homeowner in Katy when it was the right call. We'll do the same for you.

  2. Scheduled Installation

    Most Houston replacements are completed in a single day. We cover the landscaping before a shingle comes off and run a magnet across the lawn twice before we leave. Cleanup isn't optional.

  3. Code-Compliant Finish

    Every roof replacement is installed to current Houston building code standards. If ice-and-water shield, drip edge, or ridge vent requirements have changed since your original install, we build to the current code.

  4. Warranty and Close-Out Documentation

    At project close-out, you receive warranty paperwork covering 10 to 25 years depending on the system installed, plus all final documentation for your records and your carrier's file.

Working with PPB Roofs & Restoration was a smooth process from start to finish. Communication was great the entire time, and they kept us updated throughout the project. The crew was professional, on time, and did an excellent job cleaning up afterward. The roof came out great and I’m very impressed. Definitely a company I would recommend to others.

PPB Roof and Restoration were excellent on my roof replacement. They were not high pressure, nor did they try to up-sell on products I didn’t need. Their prices were more than fair. The entire process was easy and very straightforward. They completed our entire roof in one day. David my project manager and AJ the owner were both very helpful and responsive. We are very happy with the results and strongly recommend the company.

Ayden Diaz and Prime Property Builders offered a complimentary inspection of my roof when they were doing some repairs in my neighborhood. They were nice and honest. They did not find much problem with my roof except normal wears and some nail holes. They came back the other day and caulked the holes for free to prevent possible leaking as heavy rains forecasted to come next day! I do appreciate their honest, consideration, and community spirit! I would do business with them in the future.

I was approached by several other roofing companies that did not help with my insurance claim. So, when AJ Diaz stopped by, it was difficult to believe that he would be different. However, he was very knowledgeable about the entire insurance process and about roofing products, so I let him start the process. I am very happy that I did. He walked me through every step of the process and kept me informed of where my claim stood and what I needed to do next. He was on-site during the insurance company inspection and helped me find an independent inspector when my claim went to arbitration. He was happy to take the time to answer all my many many questions. Once my claim was finally approved, he helped me select roofing products that were best for my house, had a good quality guarantee, and the color that I wanted. He was able to explain the difference in the products and how they were installed. So, I feel like I made an informed decision. I also had gutters replaced that made everything look so good with the new roof. See the pictures! AJ was also on-site during the installation and came back afterwards to make sure I was happy. I am so happy by the way everything turned out. I highly recommend him and his company.

I am highly satisfied with the work completed by this company in the Houston area. From initial consultation through project completion, the entire process was managed with professionalism, efficiency, and attention to detail. What distinguished their service was the level of support provided after the installation. The team remained proactive in their follow-up, ensuring that all aspects of the project were functioning properly and that I was fully satisfied with the outcome. I would confidently recommend their services to anyone in Katy or the greater Houston area seeking high-quality roofing solutions and reliable, customer-focused service.

Houston Hail Damage and Insurance Claims: What Homeowners Ask

How long do Houston homeowners have to file a hail damage roof claim?
In Texas, most homeowners have up to one year from the date of the storm event to file a claim. That window sounds generous until you realize your adjuster will pull storm data and hail reports to verify the event date. If your roof has multiple seasons of damage stacked on top of each other, a late-filed claim gets complicated fast. We document the specific storm event with dated weather reports and correlate that to the damage we find. Don't wait until month eleven.
What does hail damage actually look like on a Houston roof?
From the ground, often nothing. Hail impact shows up as granule displacement, soft bruising in the shingle mat, and denting on metal components like pipe boots, ridge vents, and flashing. Neighborhoods like Meyerland, Cypress, and the Energy Corridor have all taken direct hail hits in recent years where the damage was invisible until an inspector got on the roof. Interior ceiling stains are sometimes the first sign a homeowner notices, by which point the damage has already advanced.
Will filing a hail damage claim raise my homeowner's insurance premium in Houston?
It depends on your carrier, your claim history, and whether the damage is documented as a qualifying weather event. A well-supported storm damage claim filed with full documentation is treated differently than a maintenance-related claim. That's exactly why we inspect before you call your carrier. If the damage qualifies and is properly documented as hail or wind, it's a weather event. If the inspection shows wear and tear, we'll tell you directly and filing is the wrong move. Every job is different. Contact PPB Roofs and Restoration for an accurate assessment.
Do you meet with the insurance adjuster on Houston roofs?
Yes. We're on the roof during the adjuster visit on every Houston claim we handle. Adjusters are professionals doing their job, and most appreciate working alongside a contractor who brings documentation. Our role is to make sure every damage item we found in the inspection is on the table during that meeting, including code upgrades required by Houston building standards that the initial scope sometimes misses. Missing an item at the adjuster meeting is far harder to recover than catching it on-site.
What happens if my Houston insurance claim is denied or underpaid?
A denial isn't always final. If we documented functional damage and the carrier denied the claim, there are remedies. We can provide additional documentation, request re-inspection, or assist through the appraisal process. Carol Sumrall, one of our Houston customers, went through arbitration with her carrier. We helped her find an independent inspector and stayed with the process until approval. Read more about navigating the full insurance claim process before you accept a denial as the last word.
Are there specific Houston neighborhoods you cover for storm damage inspections?
We cover all of Harris County and Greater Houston, including Meyerland, the Energy Corridor, Cypress, Pearland, Bellaire, and surrounding communities. We're based in Fort Bend County, so we're already in your area when storms hit the metro. Weekend availability, Monday through Saturday, means we can get on your roof the day after a storm instead of adding you to a two-week queue. For homes closer to our base, we also serve South Houston and Jersey Village.
What roofing systems do you install on Houston homes after an approved storm claim?
Most Houston replacements use architectural asphalt shingles installed to current Harris County code, but we also offer metal roofing and other systems depending on the roof geometry and the homeowner's preference. We bring samples to the home, explain the performance and warranty differences, and recommend what fits your specific situation. We won't steer you toward the highest-cost option if a different system is the right call. Every job is different. Contact PPB Roofs and Restoration for an accurate estimate.
