Storm Damage Restoration

DFW's Trusted Storm Damage Experts

The DFW Metroplex sits squarely in "Hail Alley" — one of the most storm-prone regions in the United States. Every spring and summer, severe thunderstorms bring damaging hail, destructive winds, and torrential rain that can compromise even well-maintained roofs. When a storm hits your neighborhood, you need a roofer who will be there today, tomorrow, and years from now — not a storm chaser who's gone next month.

Hobaugh's Construction & Roofing has been restoring storm-damaged homes across North Texas since 2000. We've been through every major hail event that's hit the Mid-Cities, Fort Worth, Arlington, and the surrounding areas. We know how to assess damage accurately, document it thoroughly, work with insurance companies effectively, and restore your roof to pre-storm condition.

Hail Damage Assessment

Hail damage isn't always obvious from the ground. Even small hail can compromise shingle integrity by breaking the protective granule surface, exposing the underlying asphalt to UV degradation. Over time, this leads to accelerated aging, cracking, and eventual leaks. Our trained inspectors know exactly what to look for — from the obvious missing shingles to the subtle bruising patterns that indicate concealed damage.

Our hail damage assessment includes a complete roof inspection (walking the roof when safe), documentation of all damage points with photographs and measurements, examination of gutters, vents, flashing, and other roof components, inspection of siding, fences, and other property elements, and a detailed written report suitable for insurance submission.

Wind Damage Repair

High winds can lift, crack, or completely remove shingles, leaving your roof deck exposed to water infiltration. Wind damage is particularly insidious because it can weaken shingle adhesion across large sections of roof that appear intact from the ground. Our team identifies both visible and hidden wind damage, ensuring every compromised area is addressed.

Emergency Tarping Service

When severe storm damage creates an immediate risk of water infiltration, every hour counts. Our emergency tarping service provides rapid temporary weatherproofing to prevent further damage to your home's interior while permanent repairs are planned and scheduled. We respond quickly, secure your property, and help you take the first steps toward a complete restoration.

Insurance Claim Assistance

Navigating an insurance claim can feel overwhelming, especially when you're dealing with the stress of a damaged home. At Hobaugh's, we've helped hundreds of DFW homeowners through the insurance claims process, and we know how to make it as smooth as possible.

Our insurance claim assistance includes:

• Comprehensive Documentation: Detailed photos, measurements, and damage descriptions that meet insurer requirements
• Adjuster Meetings: We meet with your insurance adjuster on-site to ensure all damage is identified and properly documented
• Supplemental Claims: If hidden damage is discovered during work, we file supplemental claims with full documentation

After the Storm: What To Do

1. Stay Safe: Don't climb on your roof or walk in areas with fallen debris or downed power lines.
2. Document What You Can: Take photos of any visible damage from the ground — dented gutters, missing shingles, debris in the yard.
3. Call Hobaugh's: Reach us at (817) 999-1067 for a prompt, professional inspection.
4. Contact Your Insurance: File a claim with your homeowner's insurance. We can guide you through this process.
5. Beware Storm Chasers: Don't sign anything with out-of-town contractors who show up uninvited. Choose a local, BBB-accredited company you can trust.
